[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 116415, member: 18023"] I was honest. I tried walgreens, but they said they didn't cover all that Defy wanted. I thought the immediate care facility close to me overcharges for service, I never tried them. Went to me my PCP, he thought my going to Defy was a clever way to go, he did my physical. My only concern was if Medicare would pay for it, which they did. I really didn't consider a Doctor would refuse to do a physical. Interesting and maybe pertinent, but my doctor is a bodybuilder and longtime weight lifter, in his youth he used to hang with many steroids uses and still "bangs" iron as he puts it. I read an online article he wrote saying “Truth of the matter is most of the “monsters” (back alley steroid users) I used to know have died or gone onto chronic disease”. He is more of a naturalist sort of Dr, I never asked if he ever used steroids. He said the large medical group he is a part of didn't want him to prescribe testosterone that wasn’t medically necessary, as is below 265 ng/dl. I am not sure I totally got what he was saying, but since my TT was 350 ng/dl I am not below the new LabCorp low of 264 ng/dl, so it would be elective, and no doubt Medicare would not pay for it. If insurance isn’t going to pay, then there isn’t much of an advantage to going local. I was just curious as to his reasons for not wanting to treat with TRT, which seems to be because he is part of a large medical hospital / association in my area. [/QUOTE]
