About Dr. Gelman

Dr. Gelman's path in medicine began in the vibrant city of Chicago. He pursued his undergraduate studies, medical education, and Obstetrics and Gynecology residency at the University of Illinois. However, it was a move to New Orleans, where his wife's family hailed from, that truly shaped his career. Over the next 27 years, Dr. Gelman established a thriving Ob/Gyn practice. As his patient population matured, he found himself transitioning from delivering babies to providing comprehensive care for women navigating menopausal changes. Seeking to stay at the forefront of medical knowledge, he earned a Master's degree in Public Health from Yale University. Dr. Gelman's passion for menopause care led him to collaborate with his friend and colleague, Dr. Hanna, at MyMenopauseRx. Together, they explore the latest advancements in women's health, ensuring that their patients receive the best possible care during this transformative phase of life. Outside the clinic, Dr. Gelman continues to call New Orleans home, sharing his life with his wife and is proud to have raised two remarkable daughters.
