Guest guest Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 Hi, Jenn: I just saw Dr. for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I was so impressed that I left a large post -- it's message #5457 written on 5/26 and you are welcome to read it. It's so refreshing to see a doctor who actually understands what is going on with the thyroid and endocrine system. I don't know if he treats pcos or insulin resistance, maybe someone else can fill you in there. I'm seeing him for Hashimotos with very high antibodies, thyroid hormone intolerance, and possibly adrenal fatigue. I'm looking forward to my follow-up appointment this week. I didn't come all the way from California, but do travel over 400 miles to see him. He sees patients from all over Texas, New Mexico, a couple from California, Georgia, one from Alaska, and one or two from Europe. That's very impressive. Let us know what you decide to do! If you do go, check out the Lubbock Inn to stay at -- two blocks from Dr. R's office, reasonable, and nice too. They have a medical rate. > hello... jan said it was okay to come over here i am a member of > about.com and california thryoid board... i am here asking for anyone > personal experiences with dr robinson.. in regards to of course > thyroid, but also to see if anyone is also being treated by him for > things such as pcos, insulin resistance, etc.. > > any feedback would be greatly appreicated..i am gathering all the info > i can...so i can justify spending the money to travel to tx to see him > lol xoxo jenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2004 Report Share Posted June 1, 2004 Hi, Jenn: You are certainly welcome. I am only too happy to help out when I can, especially since people here have been so kind to help me out! Did you get to read my post on Dr. from the 26th? I'll go ahead and post it again, hopefully the terrific folks who run this forum won't mind. It should answer any questions you have about his bedside manner, which is wonderful. I flew up on a Thursday, had my blood drawn the next morning, and flew back that afternoon. I'm going back this week to go over the blood test results, etc. I will probably post early next week about my follow-up. The office told me that Dr. R. likes to see his patients every four months. You might want to call them and ask them what your options are, since you are coming so far, especially for that first appointment and blood tests. Do you have their number? I don't know how long the blood test results typically take, but maybe they could work with you if you could stay in town for a few days, so you don't have to fly back in two weeks. I just don't know, but it's worth a call to ask. :-) What part of California are you in? > > one other question is ..how is his bedside manner?? you speak so > highly,that i am assuming it is good > have you had follow ups with him yet?? any other info would be greatly > appreciated...before i take time off from work/money..i just want to > hear all i can thank you so much nancy xoxo jenn > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
