Jeff has always been there to counsel, help, monitor and treat me through the years and continues to do so now. He is an excellent Physician, and, just as importantly, a caring human being.

I had accepted that I was a middle age woman at 45. I had accepted that I was tired and gained 18 pounds overnight. I had accepted that I was on an anti-depressant for the rest of my life and that it was as good as it gets. My doctor never even checked anything else. Then I went to Dr. Passer’s office. I needed thyroid replacement. Of course my hormones were that of a 45 year old! I needed testosterone. I needed estrogen and progesterone. I needed dhea and a multi-vitamin hormone activator. I did not need an anti-depressant. It took almost two months. I lost 24 pounds. My energy came back!

My husband and I are both patients of Dr. Passer. We travel from our home in KC for our appointments -- that's how good he is! I'm especially grateful to Dr. Passer for being so proactive and innovative when it comes to treating women. And thank you to his staff for their always pleasant and caring demeanor. They are the best!

There is something to be said for having a physician on-site! Went to a different facility for low T never saw a physician for over a year and was not satisfied with results. I saw Dr Gross my first visit and once a month after I am AMAZED at the results of my Low T treatment.

Started taking the pharmaceutical supplements from the office, having previously just gotten them at a drug store. My levels of Vitamin D shot up after one month!!
