Rebekah Perks, Certified Menopause Practitioner
We are pleased to announce that Rebekah Perks, WHNP, ANP has successfully met the criteria and passed the examination necessary to become a Certified Menopause Practitioner, credentialed through the North American Menopause Society (NAMS). Rebekah is currently one of only two healthcare practitioners in Western Massachusetts to hold this distinguished certification.
Founded in 1989, The North American Menopause Society is North America’s leading nonprofit organization dedicated to improving health and quality of life through an understanding of menopause. Practitioners who earn the NAMS Menopause Practitioner credential have demonstrated special interest and competency in the field of menopause.
Rebekah Perks shares that “the field of women’s healthcare includes many life stages – adolescence, the childbearing years, menopause, and beyond. Each stage carries with it unique circumstances, concerns, and health maintenance needs. During menopause women experience unique physical and hormonal changes, coupled with the potential for emotional, social, family, and career changes. I believe it is important to engage in conversation with my patients to understand their specific questions and concerns. I find it especially rewarding to help my patients navigate through these changes, empowering them to make important decisions about their health based on factual information. The designation of Certified Menopause Practitioner is a milestone in my career and calls attention to my commitment to offer contemporary approaches to gynecological health during the menopausal years.”
The Republican newspaper featured a candid interview with Rebekah on August 22, 2012.
