I’m Dr. Femke, the Dutch International Menopause Doctor, based near Barcelona, and I’m here to help women during menopause and midlife.
I believe that every woman can experience midlife with energy, balance, and be happy, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Together we will break down hormone chaos with calm clarity. With a mix of expert knowledge and a down-to-earth approach, you’ll get the correct information and actionable strategies for nutrition, exercise, stress management, hormone support, and HRT, always personalised for your life!
When I reached menopause myself—even as a doctor—I realized how hard it was to find clear, reliable, science-backed information about perimenopause, hormonal changes, and midlife health. I wanted guidance I could trust, practical strategies to feel in control, and tools to live a healthy, vibrant life—and now I help women do exactly that.
I studied medicine at the University of Maastricht and spent 13 years in Cyprus, where I founded a primary care clinic, gained hands-on experience, and worked closely with the international community. In 2015, I became an International Member of the RCGP (UK), and in 2025, I completed my Master as a Menopause Expert with the Spanish Menopause Association. This combination of family medicine experience and specialized menopause training allows me to guide women through perimenopause and menopause with practical, science-backed strategies tailored to each individual.
Since 2017, I am living in Castelldefels, near Barcelona, with my two daughters. We love the outdoors, surfing, camper van trips, and time by the sea. I believe being healthy is more than the absence of illness — it’s about feeling strong, balanced, and energized, so you can fully enjoy life.
Through personal consultations, retreats, corporate workshops, and my upcoming platform, I help women preparing for their midlife change and manage their menopause symptoms, with advice tailored to their life. My goal is to help you navigate the menopause journey with clarity, providing expert knowledge, a personal touch, and practical tools to help you feel confident, supported, and in control of your midlife health.
My mission? To turn menopause into a chapter of confidence, energy, and joy!
