July 16, 2024FARMINGTON HEALTH CENTERI appreciate her time and her expertise. However I just feel like I am being treated based off some general overall treatment plan that they apply for everybody and I am being treated off of a number on a sliding scale rather than my actual symptoms. As men are hormones are all different and what is high for somebody is not high for me and what is low is somebody else's high. I think more careful consideration and forethought needs to be taken when caring for men's horemone related issues. Treat the symptoms and not the numbers.

April 10, 2024FARMINGTON HEALTH CENTERDr Schardein was very thorough in checking out my issues. She took the time to talk and explain different options and she answered all my questions. She was very straightforward and yet very personable and caring.
