Susan Hardwick-Smith, MD
FOUNDER
Dr. Susan Hardwick-Smith is a nationally recognized OB/GYN, author, physician executive, and authority on menopause, hormone therapy, sexual wellness, and women’s healthspan. Board certified in Obstetrics and Gynecology, she has practiced in Houston since 1999. In 2020, she retired as founder and Medical Director of Complete Women’s Care Center, which she opened as a solo practitioner in 2002 and grew into the nation’s largest all-female OB/GYN group by 2019. She then launched her “second act” as founder of Complete Midlife Wellness Center, a concierge practice serving women through three Houston locations and a robust virtual platform. She is a also Certified Menopause Practitioner through The Menopause Society (formerly the North American Menopause Society).

Leah Love, MD
Gynecologist
Dr. Leah Love is a Certified Menopause Practitioner and Board-certified OB/GYN with 20 years of experience. Most of her career has been spent in academic medicine where she won multiple awards in teaching, leadership, and research. Like many doctors, she’s become disenchanted with our medical system, often feeling like she’s putting a band-aid on an illness that was completely preventable. After pursuing additional training, she’s living her dream of preventing and curing illness by integrating physical, mental and spiritual care. Her midlife patients will be unencumbered by the time constraints and limited therapies of corporate sick care.
