Hormone Doctors in Virginia Beach, Norfolk & Chesapeake
“I was treated with hormone therapy by a medical doctor in the past, but felt like it was a one size fits all approach. As a post-menopausal woman, with an autoimmune thyroid problem, I decided to seek help to restore my hormone levels by a hormone doctor who sees the whole picture. “Dr. Linda Long is very compassionate and down to earth in her approach. I was not a ‘normal’ patient in regards to dosages, and had to work my way up at a reduced pace to avoid side effects. Slow and steady worked for me, and I felt supported and not pushed as I sought to listen to my body's ability to deal with restored levels. “I'm still on the path, but when Dr. Long and I meet to review where I was and where I'm currently at, I feel I've made a major leap in the right direction. Progesterone has helped with improved sleep, and a recent bone density test was encouraging. My Rheumatologist applauded my choices to seek hormone therapy for bone health. My skin has improved, with much less dryness over the winter. “When I have an appointment with Dr. Long, I feel she has reviewed and compared the labs (she has them in front of her with comparison levels and gives me a copy), and seeks input, ‘listens’ and considers what I share. She responds with suggestions or explanations of what is taking place in my body and what to expect. She also explains why we desire or want to avoid certain hormone levels and what it will take to achieve it. “My daughter has also been treated by Dr. Long at her chiropractor's recommendation, because she had major problems after childbirth, and hormone replacement therapy helped to restore her fragile condition. “I would recommend Dr. Long to anyone who has been frustrated with the standard, 5 minutes of time with their doctor, who engages with the computer screen, typing away, to make sure they gather every piece of data, but neglects to give you their undivided attention to discuss your problem. “Our medical system is broken, but gratefully, the hormone doctors at Synergy do what they signed up to do.......treat their patients!” Patient’s Name Withheld Upon Request
