Memorable Quotes
"We cannot out-hormone lifestyle. I can give you testosterone and estrogen and progesterone, which will all help the muscle function and muscle building, but unless you're feeding it and exercising it, it's not going to help that much.”
“That would be the thing I would tell patients, too, is if you have a concern and it is a quality of life concern - better sleep, better mood, better intimacy, that it’s okay and that you should be listened to and it should be addressed.”
“Modern medicine, as we know it, is excellent at emergency care and of course, sick medicine, and taking care of when you are sick. 'Boy, we can get you better.' But is your quality of life better? How are we going to prevent this heart attack from happening in the first place?"
