Dr. Gueye-Weinstein is among the very few OBGYN physicians worldwide who also trained in functional and integrative medicine, making her expertise and approach in high demand in a modern world that overfocuses on managing disease rather than restoring complete health. She stands as a transformative force in women's health—a Johns Hopkins-trained, board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist whose influence extends far beyond the exam room. Honored as a Top Washingtonian doctor and a Castle Connolly Top Doctor, and recognized as one of the region's longstanding menopause experts before it became popular, she has earned international recognition as the physician other physicians work with.
​
What makes her extraordinary isn't simply her impeccable credentials—it's the rare alchemy of clinical mastery and profound human connection she brings to every encounter. Patients experience something different the moment they meet her: a physician who listens with her whole being, whose intuitive understanding of the body's language allows her to see what others miss, and whose genuine compassion creates a space where healing truly begins.
​
Dr. Gueye-Weinstein has pioneered an entirely new paradigm in medicine. As a leader in PCOS, menopause, hormonal imbalances, and endometriosis management, she's gone beyond conventional training to master herbal and functional medicine. Then she took it further. Recognizing that true healing integrates body and mind, she created Awakened Medicine—a framework that addresses a woman's mental health and subconscious programming that has been shaping her experience of disease. Her approach never stops at the "what" but goes into the "why" of any symptom, understanding that sleep, stress, nutrition, environmental disruptors, and integrative, holistic care can all become part of the solution for the true health women are looking for. And it's all rooted in tested, detailed, evidence-based protocols.
​
Her impact reverberates globally. As founder of the HALFA nonprofit foundation, she and her team have saved lives across Africa since 2012. While still in medical school, she pioneered the "see and treat" cervical dysplasia protocol along with colleagues in West Africa, now used in resource-poor settings worldwide—an innovation born from audacity and compassion. Her groundbreaking TEDx talk illuminated how emotions and identity become pathways to healing, challenging how we think about medicine itself.
​
From conducting genomics research at the National Cancer Institute to commanding stages at international speaking engagements, Dr. Gueye-Weinstein moves through the world as both a healer and visionary.
She is a mother, an author, and a physician beloved by colleagues for her collaborative spirit and by patients for her extraordinary ability to deliver not just medical excellence but the warmth of a physician who really cares.
​
When you're in Dr. Gueye-Weinstein's care, you're experiencing medicine as it was meant to be—healing.
We look forward to taking care of you.
