About Dr. Rachel Novik, DO

Updated Sep 20, 2026

Dr. Rachel Novik is an osteopathic physician (DO) who practices family medicine with a focus on women's health at Cleveland Clinic's Specialized Women's Health Department. She sees patients in Cleveland and Independence, Ohio, and is also listed at a North Olmsted office. She earned her medical degree from Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2020, completed a family medicine residency at University Hospitals' St. John Medical Center, and then finished a two-year Specialized Women's Health Fellowship at Cleveland Clinic.

Her clinical focus is complex menopause care, perimenopause, contraception, and osteoporosis management. She is a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP) and a member of The Menopause Society and the American Academy of Family Physicians. Her employer page says she helps teach residents and fellows about women's health, preventive care, and hormone therapy.

Most of what she has published publicly comes through her employer. She appeared on Cleveland Clinic's Ob/Gyn Time podcast to discuss menopause and perimenopause symptoms and treatment options, including hormone therapy and non-hormonal approaches. She writes consumer columns for Speaking of Women's Health, including two summarizing the 2023 Menopause Society Annual Meeting and one on vitamin B12. She is a co-author of a 2025 review article on contraceptive safety and efficacy in the Journal of Women's Health. Her writing follows conventional, guideline-based medicine; no statements promoting alternative medicine were found.

Open Payments records show she received $822.76 total from industry across 19 records between 2021 and 2025, with the largest amounts from Astellas Pharma ($365.40) and Amgen ($245.38). Payments like these are common, legal, and usually reflect things such as meals at educational events.

Worth knowing

  • The credential listed in some directories as 'Menopause (MSCP)' is a certification from The Menopause Society, not a specialty board certificate from ABMS or AOA. Other listings describe her as board certified in family medicine, but the research did not independently verify that certificate with the certifying board. providers.clevelandclinic.org
  • Her Doximity page lists a 2023 Clinical Imaging paper on contraceptive hormones and breast density, but the printed author list for that paper does not include her surname, so the attribution could not be confirmed. doximity.com
  • No license discipline, malpractice judgments, or criminal matters were found in open web searching. This reflects public web sources only; patients can confirm license status directly through the State Medical Board of Ohio license lookup. elicense.ohio.gov
  • She has a limited independent public footprint: no personal social media accounts, no mainstream news coverage, and no society leadership roles or named awards were found. providers.clevelandclinic.org

A word of caution about these numbers

A payment does not mean your doctor is compromised or acting unethically. Most of these entries are drug samples left for patients, or lunch brought in for the office staff, and the amounts are usually small. Research funding and speaking at medical meetings are also normal parts of a clinical career.

As a rough guide, a total under $15,000 a year is usually not a concern. Much larger sums, especially from one company whose product your doctor recommends to you, are worth asking about. You are allowed to ask.
