About Women's Health Group

## What is Women's Health Group? Women's Health Group is an OB-GYN practice at 5311 S Harlem Ave in Chicago offering hormone replacement therapy alongside full gynecological care — birth control, pap smears, prenatal care, infertility treatment, and IUD insertion, among others. Despite pages on the site branded for Naperville and other suburbs, this is a single real office in Chicago; those city-named pages all describe the same Harlem Avenue location. The physician-led team includes an OB-GYN doctor and several physician assistants.

## What does it treat? The hormone program covers estrogen replacement, progesterone replacement, and combined hormone therapy, offered in a bioidentical form, alongside what the site calls "alternative therapies" and ongoing monitoring for side effects. Outside hormones, this is a full OB-GYN practice: birth control counseling, pap smears, endometriosis care, prenatal care, hysterectomy, infertility treatment, IUD insertion, STD testing, and physical therapy referrals.

## Who's on staff? Dr. Michael Awad, DO, leads the practice, with physician assistants Alexis Schnakenburg, Morgan Johannes, Georgiana Gomorczak, and Jennifer Sykstus rounding out the clinical team, all PA-C certified. The site's provider list isn't perfectly consistent across pages — one page lists five providers, another lists four and drops Schnakenburg — but Dr. Awad and the other three PAs appear consistently.

## Does it take insurance? Yes, and this is a real point of difference from most clinics in this category: Women's Health Group states it accepts major insurance plans, and its site names insurers including Aetna, BlueCross BlueShield, Cigna, Humana, and United Healthcare among those it works with. If your plan isn't listed, the practice asks that you call the office directly to confirm.

## What isn't published? There's no price listed anywhere for hormone therapy or any other service — a "financial policy" page exists in the site's navigation, but wasn't part of this review. No consultation fee is stated, no service area beyond the Chicago address is described, and telehealth availability isn't mentioned anywhere. The office is open Monday through Thursday 8am–5:30pm and Friday 8am–4pm, closed Saturday and Sunday.
