The Center was co-developed by a team of passionate providers, including advanced practice nurse Susan Angelicola, APN, WHNP, MSCP. Together, this growing team offers compassionate, evidence-based care for every stage of the menopause journey — from symptom management to health optimization and whole-person wellbeing.

 

When we began building the NEWH Directory, Susan’s name came up more than once as a trusted provider in (peri)menopause care. She’s also been an early supporter of the NEWH mission — and we’re proud to introduce the Center to our community.

 

 

Susan Angelicola, APN, WHNP, MSCP has practiced nursing for 29 years and has been in full-time clinical practice as a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner for the past 25 years. She feels privileged to have dedicated her entire career to the health of women across the lifespan and empowers women to be advocates for their own health.

 

She currently practices in a large multi-specialty medical group in Northern New Jersey. Her clinical focus includes obstetric and gynecologic care, with sub-specialties in full-service contraceptive access and menopause medicine. She is proud to be a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner and is also passionate about nutrition, exercise, and preventive health in midlife.

 

In addition to her clinical work, Susan has authored over 30 articles in both professional and lay women’s health journals, contributed two chapters to a collegiate nursing textbook, and regularly presents at local and national conferences. She is an active member of the National Association of Nurse Practitioners in Women’s Health, the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), and the Menopause Society.

What makes this Center unique, and what inspired its creation?

 

A: Our Center was created to provide medical expertise to women in midlife. What makes us unique is that we provide this care within the health insurance model, while still giving you the time you deserve. Patients should expect a collaborative approach- we facilitate inter-connected care within Summit Health and will make referrals to primary care providers and/or specialists as needed.

 

 

A: The providers at the Center want to be involved in your care, it is our passion! We never are judgmental and no question or concern is too small. We pride ourselves on always practicing evidenced based medicine. We have providers that are certified by The Menopause Society.

Are there common misconceptions or symptoms you’d like to bring more attention to?

 

A: For some women, symptoms and changes begin several years before menopause officially occurs. A common misconception is that management must wait until menopause. Not true, being proactive is best!

What kind of impact do you want to have in our local area?

 

A: We offer this comprehensive care within Summit Health, an organization most are aware of and many already receive care within. We want women in our local area to know that The Center’s care is close by for you…and you don’t need to find it on telehealth or within an organization you do not know or trust. 

 

 

A: Midlife is our time to thrive! Maintaining health and well being is the key to longevity and remaining relevant in society.
