@aberg Not sure what doctors one might be seeing. I just had a consultation with the chief of endocrinology at HSS (Hospital for Special Surgery) NYC. He spent and hour with me after having gone over my bone density and blood work. It was a very detailed consultation and I decided on Evenity for two months before a reverse shoulder replacement. Yes, there are problems in the system with amount of time spent because of how little medicare pays doctors. We need to be active in our behalf. Ex, I saw two physiatrists before I settle on the one I continue to see because he is smart, skilled, kind and I never feel rushed. I understand that it is frustrating but we need to be with doctors who are the best.
