Are you in your 40s and starting to wonder whether your “annual check-up” is really enough?

Many women in perimenopause and menopause focus on caring for everyone else — and only seek medical care when something goes wrong. But this stage of life is when prevention matters most: hormones shift, metabolism slows, and risks for heart disease, diabetes, and cancer begin to rise.

In this episode, we break down what a true comprehensive health evaluation should look like for midlife women — from cardiovascular and metabolic screening to cancer prevention, genetic risks, lifestyle habits, and emotional wellbeing.

We’re joined by Dr. Stella Villacorta, a board-certified internal medicine physician and concierge doctor whose personal experience with breast cancer shaped her passion for proactive, personalized care. She shares practical, actionable steps every woman can start today.
