About Women's Health of South Broward

What is Women's Health of South Broward?

Women's Health of South Broward is an OB/GYN practice at 1951 SW 172nd Ave, #203, in Miramar. It is led by Dr. Bratter, who completed his OB/GYN residency at the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Hospital, and appointments are also offered with Mariana Garcia, APRN. The practice handles routine gynecology, pregnancy and delivery at Memorial Hospital Miramar, and gynecologic surgery, including Da Vinci robotic surgery. It is a member of the TopLine MD Alliance.

Two of its services fit here. For perimenopause and menopause, it treats symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disruption and low libido, "including hormone replacement therapy when appropriate." It also runs a medically guided weight management program. In its own words: "Your care may include GLP-1 medication options when appropriate, lifestyle guidance, and close follow-up to monitor progress and adjust your plan over time." It doesn't name which GLP-1 medications it uses. It also offers InBody body composition scans and Emsculpt NEO.

The office is open Monday through Friday from 8:30am, with Thursday hours running to 7:00pm. It offers telemedicine visits, set up by calling the office. It says it limits the number of daily appointments so each patient gets more time.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices for the weight management program, hormone therapy or office visits. It doesn't say whether it accepts insurance. When you call, ask for the cost of the program and the cost of the medication as separate numbers.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask whether the GLP-1 medication is brand-name or compounded, and whether it's included in a program fee or filled through a pharmacy. Ask whether insurance is accepted for visits and for the medication. Ask how often follow-up visits happen, what each one costs, and whether they can be done by telemedicine. For hormone therapy, ask which forms are prescribed and what lab work is needed first. Ask whether your ongoing care would be with Dr. Bratter or with Mariana Garcia, APRN.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you'd like a gynecologist in the Miramar area to handle menopause hormone therapy or a GLP-1 weight program alongside your regular care. It's less of a fit if you want a clinic that publishes its prices up front.
