Clinical FAQ
How close is the office?
20 minutes from Fort Lauderdale.
Do I need to stop the gym?
No. We need you to stop unsupervised anabolics.
Can TRT hurt fertility?
Yes. Exogenous testosterone can suppress sperm production. Tell us if you want children.
Will TRT fix depression?
Only if hypogonadism is a real contributor. Many men need depression treatment with normal T.
Opioids and T?
Opioids suppress T. Pain and psych plans must talk to each other.
Do you start TRT on visit one?
Almost never. We need history and confirmatory morning labs.
Do you serve downtown Fort Lauderdale?
Yes. Our Hollywood office is about 20 minutes from downtown Fort Lauderdale, and we offer telehealth appointments for busy downtown professionals.
Can you help with work-related anxiety and burnout?
Absolutely. We see many Fort Lauderdale professionals dealing with workplace stress, burnout, and performance anxiety. Our evaluations identify root causes and create targeted treatment plans.
