Patient Reviews
Oct 05, 2023
My husband and I went to see Dr. Ricketts because we suspected my husband had low testosterone. Another doctor previously looked at his bloodwork, and said that his testosterone was not low, but I knew that he had all the symptoms of low testosterone. Dr. Ricketts took so much time to listen to us and realize that the symptoms outweighed the previous blood work. He did additional bloodwork and we saw that his testosterone was actually low and he started my husband on twice monthly testosterone shots. Five months later, and my husband is like a brand new person he has energy, his muscle mass has came back and he has a wonderful sex drive. We absolutely love Dr. Ricketts because he took the time to listen to us.
