Newbie confused by doctor options to choose, including Keith McCormick
Osteoporosis & Bone Health | Last Active: 4 days ago | Replies (83)Comment receiving replies
This conversation has been very interesting to me. I would like to know if appointments with Mayo are in person or teleconferencing. I have been unsuccessful in finding any kind of expert in osteoporosis in CA. I would like to know whether those who have contacted Mayo and Dr. McCormick have done so in person or are able to do it via phone. I am going to try to relay off Prolia this month and my endocrinologist has very little experience in this procedure.

Hi dna41,
I too am getting off of Prolia this month.
I received very thorough comments from formics and gently. You can view these discussions in this Osteoporosis group.
I hope all things go well for you.
All the best.

@dna41 - I have consulted with McCormick and at the beginning I choose him because though the initial visit is actually 350, it seemed to be cheaper than going to a Functional Dr in my area , all things considered , and none would give me there expertise in dealing with osteoporosis. Mind you I had already by that time seen an Endo that recommended Forteo , but I wanted to explore all options and understand before taking meds. The other thing I’ll tell you is in California there’s a highly Integrative physician , Dr. Kim Millman. And beyond that you could join Margie Bissinger’s , Happy Bones Club. Or tune into her podcasts , they are Osteo related. Check that out. People meet 4x a month for a variety of lectures from experts, Q&A etc. In fact McCormick will be one of the speakers this month. Be aware he does provide scripts for the blood testing to most states , but definately not those from NY and NJ. Good luck …. See you’ve already gained way more information than you thought possible staying at home!!!
