    New to Louisville KY

    Welcome to Louisville. Unfortunately, I can't help you on the doc (I'm with Defy). The largest urology group is First Urology. I have seen Trevor Soergel for ED issues, and I do like him. I would think he would be a good place to start if you don't receive other recommendations.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
