Hi everyone! There is usually a lot of bad here at times and it is understandable, but I have some good news. Today was my first appointment with a new Endocrinologist Dr Lubna Mirza in Norman, Oklahoma. It went so great!! She continued my Spiro and added injectable "E" and Progesterone. From the moment I walked in I was treated with great respect and referred to properly. We talked quite a while an she is going to be coming here to learn more about trans related HRT. She was impressed with the knowledge I gained from this family and is interested in providing the very best trans care she can and is taking new patients either Mtf or FtM. the lab in a separate facility also went out of their way to code properly and the good treatment persisted. Next stop was the pharmacy. I chose Erick's in Shawnee, Oklahoma and once again nothing, but respect and proper name usage. The Pharmacist Beverly really went out of her way to ensure everything was correct with regards to dosages and meds. Everyone in the pharmacy was very nice and accommodating and treated me like a real lady. She was impressed with my knowledge as well and is going to check us out as well. I highly recommend both of these places as VERY trans supportive and have excellent staff's. If you are in Oklahoma anywhere it is well worth the drive to Norman and Shawnee for these services. They both bent over backwards to code both visit's to ensure Medicare coverage and low cost's. On Medicare there was no office or lab copays and my meds for the month including syringes and supplies properly coded only came to $24.00!!!! I had so much left over I hit a shoe sale! ;D Inclosing, I had a GREAT day today!!! :)
