Finding a new doc

Join DateSep 2011Posts11,688

hey HRT forum people. havent been in here in awhile. well im in the process of trying to find a new doctor who is actually not so overwhelmed with patients he can actually take the time to properly manage my TRT as opposed to simply writing scripts and ordering labs, to never be heard from after.

the doc im considering now im having to wait until monday to see if hes gonna let me do my own shots. apparently all his other patients have to come in like little children to get their shots and the doc keep their test, as the nurse put it, "under lock and key"... LOL

needless to say im not doing that! anyone else have a doc that s=wants to baby his patients as well as start out the relationship suggesting he does not trust them? (of course this is all assunmptions at this point. maybe he will have a good reason once i speak to him?)

2 guys I work with have to do office visits to get injections. Thank god my doc is a close friend and relatively familiar with my ability inject lol. She was a bit reluctant to rx a 10ML vial vs 1ML vials.

I would call and simply ask your question. If he steadfastly refuses self-injections then don't waste time, both yours and theirs, with an appointment. He's not going to trust you, you look like you lift weights!

He's not going to trust you, you look like you lift weights!exactly how im treating the situation. i asked his secretary to confer with him and find out if he is unwilling to consider allowing me to inject myself as that is a deal breaker for me. if hes willing to consider it, ill go in and chat with the fellow.

I wouldn't have the time to go in every week to wait for a shot. That would suck. Nice bike in the avatar!
