After starting out in primary care, Zhou chose to pursue advanced clinical training in perimenopause and menopause management when she noticed midlife patients frequently having their symptoms dismissed. She received a master of science in nursing from Villanova University and provides care focused on hormone therapy, bone density, and midlife wellness.
