Services
This is what care should feel like.
Longer appointments.
Deeper answers.
A provider who actually has time.
Ledawell is a direct-pay private practice. No insurance barriers. No productivity metrics. Just the time and depth your care actually requires. HSA and FSA cards accepted.
Our areas of focus:
01
Hormone Health
for Women
You’ve described your symptoms. You’ve been told your labs are normal. You’ve been handed a prescription that didn’t quite fit, or worse: nothing at all. Dr. Leda knows that “normal” on a standard lab panel and optimal are not the same thing.
Ledawell specializes in the full spectrum of women’s hormone health, from the first signs of perimenopause through menopause and beyond. Dr. Leda is deeply versed in the latest clinical evidence, including the landmark 2026 FDA updates to hormone therapy guidelines. She brings that knowledge directly to your care.
WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE
- Comprehensive hormone evaluation including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, cortisol, and thyroid
- Bioidentical hormone therapy through traditional and compounding pharmacies
- Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) — current evidence-based protocols, not outdated fear
- DUTCH testing for hormone metabolism, saliva cortisol patterns, and organic acid analysis
- Perimenopause symptom management: sleep, mood, brain fog, libido, weight, energy
- Menopause transition and long-term hormone optimization
- Follow-up care and ongoing protocol adjustments
02
Gut Health
Your gut is not a separate system. It drives your hormones, your mood, your energy, your immune response, and your relationship with food. Dr. Leda takes gut health seriously as a root-cause issue, not an afterthought.
Using specialized functional testing, she builds a complete picture of what’s actually happening in your digestive system and creates a personalized protocol to address it.
WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE
- GI Advanced stool analysis through US BioTek
- Comprehensive evaluation of gut microbiome, inflammation, and digestive function
- Leaky gut assessment and repair protocols
- SIBO evaluation and treatment
- Food sensitivity and elimination protocol guidance
- Supplement and nutritional protocols tailored to your results
- Integration with hormone and nervous system care for whole-body treatment
03
Nervous System &
Stress Health
Chronic stress doesn’t just feel bad, it disrupts your hormones, degrades your gut lining, tanks your sleep, and accelerates aging. Dr. Leda evaluates the nervous system and HPA axis (your stress response system) as a core component of your overall health picture, not a footnote.
WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE
- Cortisol pattern evaluation via DUTCH and saliva testing
- Adrenal function assessment
- HPA axis dysregulation protocols
- Sleep evaluation and targeted intervention
- Nervous system support through nutritional, lifestyle, and supplement protocols
- Integration with hormone and gut care for a complete picture
04
Functional Medicine & Comprehensive Labs
This is probably the most important tool Dr. Leda uses. Working with a lab partner that bypasses insurance entirely, she’s able to order full comprehensive panels at a fraction of what you’d pay through a conventional provider. More importantly, she reads them differently.
Where a conventional lab flags results outside a broad “normal” range, Dr. Leda evaluates under a functional medicine lens, looking for optimal, not just acceptable.
WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE
- Discounted comprehensive blood panels, insurance-free
- Full thyroid panel (not just TSH)
- Metabolic, cardiovascular, inflammatory, and nutritional markers
- Hormone panels in full context
- Functional interpretation: optimal ranges, not just “normal”
- Individualized protocols based on your complete results
- Follow-up lab analysis and ongoing monitoring
05
Personalized Wellness
& Health Optimization
You do not have to be sick to work with Dr. Leda. Some patients are just not where they want to be. They don’t feel optimal. Dr. Leda partners with patients who want to invest seriously in their long-term health and actually see real results that fundamentally improve quality of life.
WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE
- Nutritional guidance and whole-food protocols
- Lifestyle medicine: sleep, movement, stress, and longevity
- Targeted supplement protocols based on your labs and goals
- Long-term partnership approach — not a one-time visit
- Membership programs for ongoing hormone care (coming soon)

Telehealth
Every service Ledawell offers is available via telehealth for patients throughout Maine and Montana. You don’t need to be near New Gloucester to receive the same depth of care. Book a telehealth visit the same way you’d book an in-person appointment.
IN PERSON
Pineland Farms
Ledawell’s physical practice is located on the grounds of Pineland Farms, one of Maine’s most beloved working farm destinations. It’s a deliberately chosen setting: unhurried, grounded, and a world away from the fluorescent-lit waiting rooms you’re used to.

Ledawell’s primary focus is women’s health, but Dr. Werrell sees male patients for hormone evaluation and related concerns.
