“My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.” — Maya Angelou
That philosophy has quietly guided Amy Hurlburt throughout her life. Dr. Amy Hulburt is a physician, board-certified in both Obstetrics and Gynecology and Internal Medicine, and owner of Empower with Integrity, a women’s wellness practice here in Tulsa. She credits her formative years—spent without the internet, social media, or cell phones—for shaping the idealistic outlook she cherishes today. With time to dream and create, and parents who instilled in her the belief that she could be and do anything, Dr. Amy Hurlburt embraced life with a deep sense of possibility.
Fast-forward more than forty years, and Dr. Amy Hurlburt is now a physician, though her path to this point was far from linear. Along the way, she traveled, explored, learned, and dreamed. She married a wonderful man, raised two amazing children, completed medical school, and underwent more than one residency. Though she had achieved professional success, Dr. Hurlburt found herself grappling with a sense of disconnection and unfulfillment.
Despite her accomplishments, Dr. Hurlburt began to crave something more—deeper fulfillment and a sense of purpose beyond the daily demands of medicine. The endless layers of electronic medical records, reimbursement challenges, and insurance hurdles weighed heavily, and long hours at work began to encroach on precious family time. She kept “fighting the good fight,” but felt trapped on a hamster wheel, longing for a path that aligned more closely with her passions and values.
And then came Covid, and later menopause or what women know as the experience of going through a second “puberty,” complete with mood swings, mysterious hot flashes, and the occasional “Why is my body doing this?!” moment. “I would have appreciated a manual on this transition,” Amy reflects. And that is when she noticed that women often lacked guidance and reassurance, unaware that they were not alone in this wild, confusing, and sometimes hilarious journey.
It was in this stage of life that Amy rediscovered her purpose: to empower women at all stages. She recognized that women, long accustomed to caring for others, often neglect themselves. Through her work, Dr. Amy Hurlburt aims to help women take control of their health and wellness, an endeavor that reinvigorates her own energy and excitement for life.
Dr. Amy Hurlburt is double-boarded in Obstetrics and Gynecology and Internal Medicine, giving her a unique perspective to address a woman’s overall health. At Empower with Integrity, she focuses on enhancing women’s wellness through personalized prevention, treatment, and aesthetic care. Her mission is to foster confidence, promote holistic well-being, and ensure every patient feels empowered and valued. Guided by integrity, Dr. Amy Hurlburt provides services that honor each woman’s unique journey to health, wellness, and beauty.
I want to empower women at all stages of their lives.
