I go to the Endocrine Clinic in Memphis--its on South Rex Road...I have never had any problems there what-so-ever. I see Sally Humphrey and I have never had any problems. There are some other endocrinologists there too. Hope this helps!

I started seeing Dr. Ke at Fertility Associates Of Memphis in January. The address is...80 Humphreys Center, Suite 307, Memphis, TN, 38120. He is an RE. He seems to be very thorough and spent a lot of time with me on my first visit. I left with a plan of action that day. He was pretty sure that I was not ovulating. He really put me at ease and said that I would get pregnant, I would just need a little help.

just for the record, dr sacks is not an re, but does treat patients ttc. He is an endo, specialising mostly in diabetes and metabolism, but tries to treat pcos patients wholistically

Default Dr. Lea Bannister

She is AWESOME! She has three different offices: Germantown, Baptist East, Covington Pike.

I've seen her for over a year now, and she's the first doctor who's put me on Metformin. She's very positive and encouraging and has a super bedside manner. She knows her stuff!!

My main concern now is that I need a general physician in the area who has a clue about PCOS. The doctor I'm seeing now saw Metformin in my chart and is convinced I have diabetes, though he's never done a test for it. His confusion makes me nervous.

Any recommendations??

Thanks!

RE: I saw Dr. Ke at Fertility Specialists. He has terrible bedside manners ~ though I wouldn't dismiss him entirely because I understand others have had "good" experiences at that office.

OB/GYN: I highly recommend Dr. Paul Neblett. LOVE HIM!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Girls!

I live in Horn Lake and I see Dr. Ralph Goodman @ Endocrinology Assoc. (Baptist East Medical Bldg). He has a wonderful repuatation and I was referred to him when I was DX with hypothyroidism. He DX me with PCOS and is working with my GYN to help me concieve. My GYN is also very awesome. His name is Brad Stern (J. Bradley Stern if you try to look him up) and he has an office at Methodist G'town and Baptist Women's. His # is 767-3810 I think. He was recommended to me when I was TTC before and my previous GYN (Kenneth Byrd...awful...don't use him) put me on Clomid without doing any tests then told me that he didn't know what was wrong with me and that I should see a RE right away. Dr. Stern is very reassuring...straight to the point and he sees lots of women with PCOS. Hope this helps!!!
