Kesha Klaw's hot flashes and body changes were initially dismissed as work stress, highlighting a major issue: Women are waiting years for correct diagnoses because many doctors lack menopause training.

It took seeing a specialist for Kesha to get the expert, validating care she needed. Providers must be "good listeners," says Dr. Abby Barnes, an OB-GYN at HCA HealthONE, who is advocating for more uniformity in how doctors discuss menopause and perimenopause in Colorado.

Kesha recommends that if you're experiencing symptoms, demand a doctor who is informed and ready to help. At HCA HealthONE our doctors are ready to listen and provide the right support. ➡️ Find a doctor: HCAHealthONE.com/physicians
