About us...
Women to Women
Over 25 years ago we helped to begin a revolution in healthcare for women that continues
to this day.
Founded by Marcelle Pick, OB/GYN NP,
along with former partners Christiane Northrup, MD, Mary Ellen Fenn, MD, and Annie
Rafter, RNC, our medical clinic was among the first in the world devoted to health
care for women, by women.
We pioneered the combination of alternative and conventional medicine in women’s
health, bringing science and discipline to natural and preventive methods. Our practice
reflects the reality of how our bodies work: everything — the physical, the
mental, and the spiritual — is connected.
Because of our focus on underlying causes rather than simply upon the treatment
of symptoms, we’ve developed special expertise in hormonal imbalance, menopause,
premature aging, degenerative and autoimmune diseases, nutrition and digestion,
breast health, bone health, and the organic bases of depression and mood disorders.
In everything we do, we honor each individual woman and the power her body has to
heal itself — and her place in a mind-body-spirit continuum that makes her
health in large part an expression of her life.
Our medical clinic
Today we continue this pioneering clinical medicine, seeing thousands of women each
year from around the world, many of whom have come to us out of desperation when
their local healthcare providers have been unable to provide them with the solutions
they seek. Our practitioners have each been trained by Marcelle Pick and are well
versed in functional medicine, a dynamic, patient-based approach to assessing, preventing
and treating chronic disease. Using the most natural, least invasive protocols first,
practitioners work from the inside-out to identify and heal core clinical imbalances
that lead to poor health.
Through books and articles, and our active collaboration, the clinic’s methods
are being adapted by practitioners around the country.

The Personal Program — a convenient, at-home version of what we recommend
to patients at our clinic
Although women enjoy the experience of coming to the clinic,
The Personal Program allows you to experience many of the benefits of our
approach if you don’t have the time or financial resources to visit us in
Maine. The goal of the Personal Program is to make the innovative approach that’s
changed women’s lives at the clinic directly accessible to women all across
America. We invite you to learn more about the Personal Program and discover how
it can help you take control of your health. When you join the Personal Program,
you become one of thousands of women who are helping to change women’s health,
naturally.
We now offer four versions of the Personal Program:
The Personal Program for Hormonal
Imbalance is a personalized, at-home approach to restoring hormonal balance,
naturally. Hormonal imbalance is known to cause perimenopause and menopause symptoms
in women over 35, and is often related to a host of conditions including polycystic
ovarian syndrome, hypothyroidism, insulin resistance, adrenal fatigue, and more.
Our natural approach helps restore the delicate balance that is so vital to your
health and well-being.
The Personal Program for Core Balance
is our approach to healthy weight loss popularized by Marcelle Pick in her new book
The Core Balance Diet. At
the clinic we have found that targeting wellness is more successful than willpower,
lower carbs, or restricted calories in reaching lasting weight loss.
The Personal Program for Better Bones
promotes natural bone health and bone regeneration. It was created with Dr. Susan
E. Brown, PhD, noted researcher, published author, and founder of the Center for
Better Bones. Dr. Brown has 25 years of research and consultative experience and
has helped thousands of women regain their bone health, without drugs.
The Personal Program for Adrenal Health
brings natural support to these powerful adrenal glands that keep your body in
balance during times of stress. The demands of an always-on-the-go
lifestyle can cause adrenal imbalance, which can lead to fatigue, insomnia, sleep
disturbances, digestive problems, loss of libido, and stubborn weight gain. We’ve
had great success helping women regain their energy, strength, and
restful sleep patterns with our natural approach.
