About Femcare Medical Associates

What is Femcare Medical Associates?

Femcare Medical Associates is a full-service OB/GYN practice with offices in Pomona and Ontario, California. Simmi Dhaliwal, MD, FACOG is listed as a prescriber, and the practice's own pages also name Maggie Pham, DO, FACOG and Kelly Ghislaine Smith, MD, FACOG among its providers. The practice covers the usual range of gynecologic and obstetric care, including well woman exams, pregnancy and childbirth, birth control, irregular periods, hysterectomy, and vaginal dryness, along with MonaLisa Touch laser therapy for menopause related symptoms.

Hormone therapy shows up as one line under menopause management, described as "the use of hormones to help balance mood and support the body through the menopausal transition." There is no detail beyond that one sentence about which hormones are used, in what form, or how a treatment plan is built. If hormone therapy is the reason you are looking at this practice, treat that line as a starting point for a conversation, not a program description. For birth control, the practice names specific options including Depo-Provera and Nexplanon, with Nexplanon noted as available for select insurances only.

This listing is for its Pomona office at 160 E Artesia St #330.

What does it cost?

No prices are published for any service, including hormone therapy, menopause management, or MonaLisa Touch. The practice states it accepts "all PPOs and most major HMOs as well as IEHP," which points to this being run as an insurance based OB/GYN practice rather than a cash-pay hormone or wellness clinic. If you are hoping to pay out of pocket for hormone therapy specifically, ask directly what that would cost without insurance, since nothing on their pages addresses a self-pay rate.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which physician you would actually see and whether that person handles hormone therapy personally, since three providers are named but the hormone therapy line does not say who manages it. Ask what "hormone therapy" means in practice here: pills, patches, injections, or something else, and whether it is compounded or standard pharmacy medication. Ask whether a hormone therapy visit is billed through insurance or would need to be self-pay, and if self-pay, what the visit and any follow-up labs cost. If Nexplanon is something you are considering, confirm whether your insurance qualifies, since the practice notes it is limited to select plans.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a conventional OB/GYN practice for pregnancy, birth control, menopause care, or gynecologic surgery, and you plan to use insurance. It is less of a fit if you are specifically shopping for a dedicated hormone therapy or peptide program, since hormone therapy here is a single offering inside general menopause care rather than its own detailed service.
