Congratulations :)
You might write down a list with questions you have... so you can be sure you have them asked...

I didn't go to Mazzoni, but the clinic I go to in DC is very similar. My first visit was mostly my doctor going over my medical history, talking about what T could/would/might/won't do for me, and getting a consent form to read over at home. They also required blood work to be done while fasting, so check and see if you're allowed to eat/drink before. I was not and my appointment wasn't until nearly lunch time. Kind of miserable, but worth it.
I had another appointment 3 weeks later where I officially got my prescription. If I hadn't started around the holidays, I probably could've gone back in a week later (they get booked up very quickly around the end of the year).
Thank you and it sounds like that is how my apts. are going to go they gave me 2 different appointments. I might want to call and see if I need to fast though.
Yeah, I'd call and ask. I had a friend who didn't and he had to come back the next day for his blood work. They do walk-ins at my clinic for anything in the lab, so it wasn't so bad, but if you're not local to the clinic you're going to, it is kind of an ordeal.
