“Clear communication, easy to speak to. However, this doctor was labeled as a transgender healthcare provider when he is not, and told me himself that he is not. He was able to refer me to an endocrinologist though! He does not and prescribe or administer treatment himself, a small miscommunication between the practice and Zocdoc.”
