Meet Dr. Carolyn Moyers, D.O., FACOG, NCMP | OBGYN, entrepreneur & podcast host

We had the good fortune of connecting with Dr. Carolyn Moyers, D.O., FACOG, NCMP and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Dr. Moyers, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I had no interest in owning my own practice right out of residency. Quite the opposite – when presented with the two options, I signed an employment contract. I wanted to practice a good medicine. We had not learned the business of medicine in medical school or residency.

After five years in private practice, my family responsibilities had increased and I constantly felt pulled in different directions. I was needed in the office, the delivery room, the operating room, and my family wondered when I’d be home & I was missing putting my 8 month old to bed – again. This is when I said, “There has to be a better way.”

I spent the next few years doing OB hospitalist work – where my time and effort at work were focused for the 12 or 24 hours at the hospital. But recovery from 24 hours is hard – don’t even get me started as to why we still have doctors work 24 hours, but pilots and truck drivers have work hour limitations that are more humane.

I spent a year developing a gynecology program for a hormone replacement therapy clinic with multiple locations in DFW. This gave me insight into what it takes to build and grow a practice.

This is when I started dreaming about creating a boutique experience for women to receive evidence-based care that treated the whole person (mind, body, and spirit). A practice that put the patient-physician relationship back at the forefront.

Sky Women’s Health is a collection of my unique training. I am a Board Certified OBGYN, fellowship trained in neuromusculoskeletal medicine, North American Menopause Society (NAMS) certified practitioner (NCMP) and a fellow of the International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health (ISSWSH).

I believe that when women are empowered, big things happen – in their families, their businesses, and their communities. We help women thrive in their life by putting them in the driver’s seat of their health, because – your health is your wealth.


Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?

A Sky Women’s Health our wholistic approach to women’s healthcare encompasses mind, body and spirit.

We fill a gap in healthcare by providing on-time and unhurried appointments, allowing patients space to be heard and autonomy to make the right health decisions for their unique needs and lifestyle.

We have a special focus in gynecology and osteopathy:

1. Osteopathic manipulative treatment for discomforts of pregnancy – back pain, pelvic pain and more.

2. Vulvar and pelvic pain, including minimally invasive surgery when indicated.

3. Sexual medicine

4. Perimenopause/menopause medicine.

I am most proud of how our patients feel after their visits – heard, taken care of, valued.

It’s not about what I want to do, but what my patient needs and what I can do to help facilitate that. It’s easy to feel invisible in todays healthcare system and I want to change the narrative for women’s healthcare.
