Kendra,
I have been on the tour of duty in Dallas trying to find an Endocrinologist/Gyno..anyone to help with PCOS. It can be overwhelming & disheartening. I have been to Dr. Feinstein, he's a good Endo, but be prepared to be treated like a number & cash cow. I did not like his unpersonal demeanor & his office staff was unsympathetic at times, but that is only my opinion. I saw a Gyno in Bedford yesterday, a bit far ( I live in Richardson), but what an amazing office and great staff. He's very upfront & open minded about treating PCOS and his staff is truly some of the most down to earth & friendly people. He invited me into his office to discuss my whole "tour of duty", gave me options I had never been given, was sympathetic, understanding & gave me a treatment plan. I started Actos, Aldactone & Adipex today along with a low carb diet plan. I feel blessed to have found him, which was through someone in the DFW PCOS support group. His name is Dr. Stephen Farmer. He has a website: http://www.doctorfarmer.com ...please check it out. I highly recommend him. Please feel free to email me personally & I will discuss anything with you. Good luck and God bless you.
