      They are the most dangerous gynecologist office on the planet. They are a hysterectomy mill. They put Me on hormones because pa said my testosterone was low. I started gaining weight and I asked them to change my dosage they literally told me that my testosterone is not making me gain weight. They refused to help me. They want you to have your hysterectomy and then not come back to them for a long time. I called them to see if I could get it changed and had some nurse secretary call me back. She was so rude and cold and she had no nursing experience. She called me and told me that testosterone does not make you gain weight. She never gave me any medical explanations just repeated just what the other PA said. The whole office is ran by a PA not even a real doctor. Pa's are not doctors. They have little Debbie sitting out for everyone including soda. Half the women that come in there are overweight but yet they want everyone to eat little debbies. They try to get me into their diet clinic to take Narcotics for diet pills. I did not want to take a narcotic and ask them if there was something else that I could take instead. They literally refuse to help me. The PA was so cold and nasty she had no clue how to identify with another human being. Their office staff change every couple weeks. Be very careful choosing this company they are very dangerous. I am on hormones and to be just taken off and told that I can no longer be seen anymore because they don't like me literally don't like me. Because I asked them for a healthier way to lose weight or to stop this testosterone from making me gain weight. They literally sent me a letter telling me that they did not want to take care of me anymore. Keep in mind I hardly ever talk to them and I have good insurance. They stopped allowing me to have my hormone medicine just cut me off and told me to go somewhere else. It is very dangerous to take somebody cold turkey off of hormones
