Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Amazing Experience and Highly Recommend!
From the moment I stepped into TaraMD, I knew I’d found something special—but meeting Dr. Suzanne Fenske surpassed even my highest expectations. She blends deep clinical expertise with genuine warmth, making every appointment feel like a collaborative partnership rather than a rushed consultation. Dr. Fenske listens with intent, explains complex concepts in down-to-earth language, and crafts treatment plans that honor both evidence-based medicine and my individual lifestyle.What truly sets her apart is her integrative lens: lab work, nutrition, stress management, and hormone balance are woven seamlessly into a cohesive roadmap for long-term wellness. After years of struggling with unresolved symptoms, I finally feel heard, validated, and—most importantly—better. The TaraMD team mirrors her ethos too: from the front-desk check-in to follow-up calls, every interaction is efficient, respectful, and kind.

Horrible Experience
The previous negative reviews listed here are my exact experience. Dr. Fenske was disrespectful towards me and she made the appointment beyond uncomfortable. I would not recommend her to anyone.

The Real Deal Menopause Expert!
From the moment I started implementing Dr. Fenske's suggestions, I began noticing a remarkable shift. The disruptive hot flashes that once ruled my days became less frequent and intense. The mood swings that had strained my relationships started to stabilize, bringing back a sense of emotional balance I thought was lost forever. I even found renewed energy to engage in activities I had once abandoned due to discomfort.What truly sets this experience apart, though, is the unwavering support I've received throughout this journey. Dr. Fenske's expertise, coupled with the resources from the North American Menopause Society, formed a comprehensive foundation for managing perimenopause. It's not just about symptom relief – it's about reclaiming control over my body and embracing this natural phase of life with confidence and grace.

Perimenopause Expert
I’ve met with several so called “perimenopause and menopause” experts, but none of them compared to the true expert Dr. Fenske. My hormones are now balanced, sleeping well, excess weight gone and mood always positive. The office is gorgeous and clean, staff is sweet and professional. Thank you for giving me my life back!

So Incredibly Knowledgeable & Patient!
Hands down the best doctor appointment I've ever had! Dr. Fenske took such great care of me - she is so incredibly patient, gentle, and caring and clearly spent time thinking about my concerns and how to address them in a way that worked for me. I absolutely adore Dr. Fenske and am so grateful that after so many years of dreading going to the gyno, I have found a provider who I feel so comfortable with and takes such good care of me. She is SO incredibly knowledgeable and her background in integrative and functional medicine allows me to feel better knowing that there's actually hope to heal issues that most doctors haven't been able to treat me for in the past. I can't thank you and your staff enough!

Fantastic Physician and Surgeon
I was a surgical patient of Dr. Fenske for endometriosis as a direct referral from my primary care doctor. From the first time I’ve met with Dr. Fenske, along with pre-op, post surgery and follow-up visits, the experience has been amazing. This was the first time having a surgery with Dr. Fenske, but my third time having a similar procedure. The incision scars are minimal compared to prior operations and my recovery was swift. Thanks to Dr. Fenske, as we really do believe it’s because of her, my husband and I were able to welcome our first child into this world. Looking forward to continuing my care with her for all things gynecology.

I had a great visit at TaraMD with Dr. Fenske. It was my very first integrative medicine experience and I was very happy with it. She made me feel very comfortable in her care, she took her time with me and addressed all of my needs. The exam was very thorough and I left with all of my questions answered. Definitely more than your average GYN appointment! And the office is so cute!!

Amazing Doctor and Person!
I’ve now met with Dr. Fenske several times and the appointments and her care are consistently amazing. She created a plan that included a mix of integrative medicine and hormone replacement therapy. I’m sleeping so much better, no longer dealing with night sweats/mood swings and I’ve lost over 15lbs in a very short period of time. I highly recommend Dr. Suzanne Fenske founder of TaraMD.

Dr. Fenske is a gem!
I have recently had the experience of meeting with Dr. Suzanne Fenske after researching perimenopause and pelvic pain experts. The appointments have been amazing, always on time and thorough. She has an amazing bedside manner and a great sense of humor, all things that make going to a gynecologist less stressful and more comfortable. As a pelvic pain expert, she has the experience and tools that other physicians can't offer. She introduced me to SoLa pelvic therapy, which has been a quick, easy and most importantly painless way of relieving my pelvic pain symptoms.

Perimenopause Expert
I’ve met with several gynecologist that stated they were “specialists” in perimenopause and menopause but none of them compared to Dr. Suzanne Fenske. She is North American Menopause Society (NAMS) certified and board certified in Integrative Medicine along with several other certifications. She was thorough and created an ideal plan that alleviated all of my symptoms. I’ve also gained a tremendous amount of energy and lost 15 pounds with minimal effort. I highly recommend Dr. Fenske Founder of TaraMD.

Best Integrative Gynecologist
Dr. Fenske is by far the best doctor I’ve ever met with. She is extremely knowledgeable, patient and caring. I had met with several other Integrative Gynecologists in New York City prior to my appointment with Dr. Fenske and none were as thorough with their questioning or overall health exams as she was. The practice she created is beautiful, relaxing and extremely clean. The appointment started exactly on time, which was a nice change compared to the other medical practices. The little touches of water and healthy snacks being offered was a nice bonus. I highly recommend Dr. Suzanne Fenske and her practice TaraMD.
