At Gaya Wellness, we believe women’s health care shouldn’t feel rushed, dismissive, or cookie-cutter. Too many women are told their symptoms are “normal” or “just part of getting older.” We call BS on that. Your fatigue, mood swings, hot flashes, brain fog, weight struggles, and cycle chaos aren’t imaginary—they’re real, and they deserve real solutions.
To empower women with clarity, confidence, and care that finally makes sense. We combine modern medicine with holistic support to uncover root causes, restore balance, and help you thrive—not just survive.
Founder and Your Personal Doctor
My name is Shweta Patel, and I am the founder of Gaya Wellness- a platform that provides women with virtually comprehensive and convenient healthcare and wellness.
I am a board-certified and established OB/GYN in the Winter Garden community of Florida. I obtained my medical degree from my home state, SUNY Buffalo, NY. I was commissioned into the United States Navy and served for 13 years as a medical officer. I moved to Florida four years ago and started a hospital-owned practice where I provided obstetrical and gynecological care in person.
The onset of the pandemic highlighted a critical breakdown in women’s healthcare experience. Women needed to feel heard, understood, and clear on their choices and next steps. And these needs were not being met in the 15 minutes allotted to them ( if even that long). This is what inspired the creation of Gaya Wellness. Now, women can get holistic care when needed and from wherever convenient. We are on a mission to transform how women are taken care of into an engaging and empowering experience.
When I am not working on growing Gaya Wellness or seeing patients, I usually spend time with my fur babies (Dash and Mimi), exploring new places, listening to live music, or practicing major self-care (my favorite—facials!).
We take a whole-woman approach to care. That means looking at the big picture—not just one symptom at a time. Hormones, nutrition, stress, sleep, mental health, intimacy—it’s all connected, and your care should reflect that.
Your story matters.
We use advanced labs and imaging to get real answers.
No two bodies are alike, so no two care plans should be.
We validate your experience and walk with you through it.
From the first period to perimenopause, postpartum to menopause—we’ve got you covered. We specialize in:
Hormonal health (thyroid, PCOS, perimenopause, menopause)
Fertility and preconception care
Postpartum recovery and breastfeeding support
Sexual health and intimacy concerns
Pelvic pain, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, fibroids
Urgent care for UTIs, infections, and sudden symptoms
Whole-body wellness (energy, metabolism, mood, sleep, and more)
Expert care from the comfort of your home—no waiting rooms, no rushed appointments.
We don’t roll our eyes at your symptoms. We take them seriously.
We explain what’s happening in your body in a way you actually understand.
Our care is backed by evidence, delivered with warmth, and sprinkled with humor—because health care doesn’t have to be cold and clinical.
At Gaya Wellness, you’ll never feel dismissed, rushed, or unheard. You’ll feel supported, validated, and empowered with tools that actually work for your body.
Because women’s health care shouldn’t be an afterthought—it should be revolutionary. And we’re here to lead that change.
Gaya Wellness PLLC takes great pride in employing only top-rated and board-certified physicians. The Gaya Standard is pretty high. You can rest assured that the physicians on our platform are super advocates for their patients and committed to their empowerment. Not only that, but we also have high standards for the local partners we select to work with and market their practice on GAYA Wellness.
Welcome to 90% of our patients. “Normal labs” don’t mean optimal health. We look deeper—comprehensive panels, advanced testing, and most importantly, your actual experience. If you don’t feel like yourself, there’s a reason. Our job is to find it.
Simple: you meet with your provider online, from anywhere. We handle the testing (we’ll order labs and imaging you can complete locally), review your results, and create a personalized plan. You still get expert, compassionate care—without the waiting rooms or awkward paper gowns.
Yes. When medications or hormone therapies are appropriate, we prescribe them. But we don’t stop there—we combine prescriptions with lifestyle, nutrition, and integrative support so your plan works on every level.
We cover the full spectrum of women’s health, including:
If it impacts your body, mood, hormones, or confidence—it’s on our list.
Yes—some exams (like Pap smears and certain imaging) must be done in person. Think of us as your ongoing care partner who handles the day-to-day, root cause, whole-woman health, while your in-person gynecologist covers the procedures we can’t do virtually.
Easy. We’ll order the labs and imaging you need at a local facility near you. Once results are in, we break everything down in plain English (no confusing medical mumbo-jumbo), and use them to build your care plan.
Absolutely. This is one of our specialties. From hot flashes and night sweats to mood swings, brain fog, and low libido—we’ve got solutions that combine science, hormone support, and lifestyle strategies.
We specialize in women’s health—period. That means our care is designed for women, by women’s health experts. It’s not generic medicine—it’s health care tailored to your biology, hormones, and life stages.
