She, as well as her sister Jennifer Berman, have been critiqued for their role involving women's sexual health: "In 2004, Laura Berman left UCLA and used venture capital to open the Berman Center, a treatment clinic in Chicago. In 2005, Jennifer Berman also left UCLA to relocate in the private sector, opening a sexual medicine practice at the Rodeo Drive Women’s Health Center in Beverly Hills (O’Connor, 2005). The shift of the Bermans’ practices from academic centers to the explicitly for-profit commercial sector speaks volumes about the new ‘Viagra culture’." 〔() The ‘Pinking’ of Viagra Culture: Drug Industry Efforts to Create and Repackage Sex Drugs for Women〕 Laura has a sister, Dr. Jennifer Berman, a urologist with whom she co-authored a book called "FOR WOMEN ONLY: A Revolutionary Guide for Reclaiming your Sex Life".〔(Amazon.com )〕 Both Berman sisters participated in The Women's Conference in 2004.
