[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 124926, member: 18023"] It depends on what your level of TT is. If you are under 264 ng/dl TT, I don't think it's that difficult to find someone. I would like to be able to ask a doctor upfront before making an appointment, what level do they start TRT treatment, but they don't like to acknowledge it's really all about the numbers. BUT it is. However, if you are over that, I am not sure there are any doctors that are in insurance networks that treat hypogonadism above that level. I had gone to Dr. Craig Niederberger in 2016, he is pretty knowledgeable, but he does not take insurance and he specializes more in male fertility than hypogonadism. He wrote a prescription for me for clomid at the time. He is part of University Center for Urology. When I asked what the oldest man he had treated, he did tell me at the time he was treating a 90 old man with testosterone. However, I think they would recommend that for hypogonadism they would recommend another doctor on the staff. I decided not to go back to him because likely it would be much more expensive than Defy Medical, it's over 30 miles away from me, and it's not a sure thing what their doctor would do, and they don't take any sort of insurance, so for me there is no advantage to go that route.
