@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!!!

And I’ll add , when I went for my second Endo appt and had already learned quite a bit I point blank asked that I hoped she would work with Dr. McCormick if need be . I subsequently asked for certain blood tests and she did them. Drugs can be and should be part of the tx plan if indicated , but know you should , or at least it’s better to be doing all the other things as well. Exercise , good diet, supplements as needed, etc . Good luck !!!

Thank you for your info and suggestions. I will research this week.
