I don't know how south you are but
Dr. Sweet in Fort Myers, Florida 239-275-8118 is a RE and he specializes in pcos. His bed side manner isn't the best but he does have the knowledge.

Hello,
I must agree Dr. Kenneth Gelman is the doctor to see. He is just wonderful, very knowledgable in PCOS. I live in Pembroke Pines, I was seeing him until my insurance changed ( I now have AETNA) which he doesn't accept, so now I myself am looking for someone else. If he is on your insurance you should go to him.
Best wishes to you | |

I just had an appointment with Dr. Kimberly Stein in Boca Raton, Florida. She is a family practitioner who works with a nurse practitioner, Laureen Fleck, who is also a certified diabetes educator. Laureen has a subspecialty in PCOS. Although this PCOS-friendly practice is not a RE group, they are very PCOS-savy and accept Aetna. I also have Aetna.
I found this group by accident. My insurance just changed to Aetna and I was forced to select another primary care physician. Since I am relatively new to this area, I picked a doctor based on her location. Worst that could happen would be that I would have to change again.
What a pleasant surprise it was for the doctor to understand why I take Glucophage and commissurate on how ineffective birth control pills are for PCOS.
I have an appointment in a couple of weeks with Laureen, the nurse practitioner, since she specializes in PCOS.
The practice's name is Family Medicine of Boca Raton, and their phone number is 561-750-7300.

I have to agree with Bucci, Dr. Kenneth Gelman is a great Dr. He's located at Memorial Medical Office Center in Hollywood. His telephone number is (954) 963-7100.

Hi Everyone,
I found a gyn located in Weston ( Cleveland Clinic Hospital) her name is Dr. Vivian Connor. She just moved here from Virginia a couple of months ago. She is very knowledgable about PCOS. She attended a local support group in Pembroke Pines and spoke about PCOS and types of treatment, symptoms etc.
Best Wishes | |
