Industry Payments
Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Payments

Compared to peers
Small
Dr. Jennifer R. Berman, MS received $64 across 3 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was Lilly USA, LLC.
What this means for your care
- A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
- Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
- Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
- A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Jennifer R. Berman, MS
Sourced directly from Dr. Jennifer R. Berman, MS's social posts and replies.
What is BioTe Pellet Hormone Therapy and how is it administered?
BioTe pellets, containing estradiol and testosterone, are tiny, rice-sized grains inserted subcutaneously every 3.5 to 4 months. The insertion site is typically marked about three finger-breadths from the 'crack area'. The process involves minimal discomfort, often described as a 'bee sting', and is considered 'totally worth' the benefits. Effects usually begin within five to seven days. Patients on existing HRT should continue it for a week post-insertion before stopping. Recovery involves applying Steri-Strips and a plastic dressing, avoiding swimming or water, and taking it easy on exercise for three to four days. The pellets release hormones over time based on individual metabolism, cardiac output, and blood flow, ensuring optimal and sustained levels.
What supplements are part of the BioTe program?
The BioTe program includes important supplements like Vitamin D, which aids hormone absorption; a probiotic for gut-brain hormone balance, as estrogen is metabolized in the gut; and DIMM (Diindolylmethane), derived from cruciferous vegetables, to optimize healthy estrogen balance and prevent the breakdown of testosterone into estrogen, thereby maintaining optimal hormone levels.
What is the EmSella treatment and what are its benefits?
The EmSella treatment is a painless, 30-minute session where patients sit fully clothed on a chair that uses HIFEM (High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic) energy. This electro-stimulation is equivalent to approximately 20,000 Kegel exercises, lifting and tightening the pelvic floor. Dr. Berman uses it for 'tune-ups' and it helps with confidence, orgasm quality, period incontinence, back pain, and improves symptoms of urinary frequency, urgency, and incontinence, while enhancing sexual function, arousal, and response.
What is The Menopause Biotype Test and how does it work?
The Menopause Biotype Test is a patented DNA test, using a '23 and Me' format, designed to individualize patient care. It screens for genetic factors impacting hormone symptoms and menopause, determining the best hormone formulation and combination for an individual, how they metabolize hormones, and the optimal timing to begin HRT to prevent disease and severe symptoms. It also identifies risks for conditions like Alzheimer's, Osteoporosis, premature skin aging, and weight gain, helping patients avoid a 'guess and check' approach to hormone therapy. To get the test, patients should call the office at (310) 772-0072.
What is a healthy vaginal pH and how can it be maintained?
A healthy vaginal pH should be between 3.8 and 4.5. A pH above 4.5 (more alkaline) creates an environment where bad bacteria (causing bacterial vaginosis) and fungus (causing yeast infections) thrive. Maintaining a healthy, acidic pH (below 4.5) can prevent yeast infections or UTIs after sex. Hormone balance, particularly vaginal estrogen, is crucial in maintaining this healthy pH level.
What is the Hydrafacial Platinum treatment and what are its benefits?
The Hydrafacial Platinum is a 60-minute treatment combining cleansing, exfoliation, high frequency, red light therapy, hydration, and antioxidant protection. It helps with hydration, brightening, evening skin tone, cleaning pores, increasing firmness, and reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Serums are customized based on individual needs and skin goals, catering to aging, congested, acne-prone, or dry skin. There is no downtime, and patients leave with hydrated, glowing skin, able to resume their day immediately. It is recommended for concerns with skin elasticity, tightness, and decongestion, especially for dry and congested winter skin.
What is Dr. Berman's minimally-invasive labiaplasty treatment?
Dr. Berman offers a popular minimally-invasive labiaplasty that uses radiofrequency heat treatment, meaning it is scalpel-less with no cutting or excising. This treatment improves the appearance of the labia majora and minora, increases laxity in the clitoral hood, and decreases puffiness or laxity in the mons pubic area. Beyond aesthetic benefits, it also provides improved sensation and blood flow.

What areas of care does Dr. Jennifer R. Berman, MS cater to?
Dr. Berman specializes in female urology, sexual health, and menopausal health. Her expertise includes the Menopause Biotype and Bioidentical Hormone Haven. She also offers procedures such as Votiva, Emsculpt, Morpheus8, skin rejuvenation, and diVa Vaginal Laser. Dr. Berman strongly advises against oral estrogen, considering it outdated and linked to all associated risks of hormone therapy. She advocates for transdermal or subcutaneous delivery (like pellets) as the safest and most effective method, as it bypasses the liver and avoids cardiovascular risks. While testosterone is not FDA-approved for women, she compounds it, preferring pellets for its delivery. She champions individualized patient care through her Menopause Biotype Test, believing no two women are identical and should not receive identical treatments. She emphasizes the importance of a strong pelvic floor for sexual health and well-being, noting that its function can decline with age and childbirth, leading to issues like urinary incontinence and decreased orgasm quality.
