Anti-Aging & Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy

During Dr. Hunt’s first seven years after residency, he developed a successful family practice in Akron, Ohio. There he saw that many of his patients who were overweight and reported low energy also had a poor diet and correlated low thyroid and hormone levels. They were aging poorly and not living the quality of life they deserved. Since medical school, Dr. Hunt believed that if doctors could maintain patients’ hormone balance at a youthful level, then there would be a strong possibility they could look and feel better throughout the aging process. However, there was not yet a safe and effective method for providing this kind of treatment.

Suzanne Sommers’ first book on anti-aging and BHRT piqued Dr. Hunt’s interest in hormone therapy once again, and he has since read numerous textbooks on the topic and attended many anti-aging conferences. Dr. Hunt is currently a provider of BioTE® Bio-Identical Hormone Pellet Therapy and finds that working in partnership with BioTE® makes it easy to implement effective treatment programs his patients. Furthermore, BioTE® is dedicated to continuing to educate its 600 associated providers and shares the latest knowledge and breakthroughs in BHRT to ensure their knowledge in the field is first-rate.

Actual patient review

Luckily at the age of 49, my sister referred me to the Bio-identical Hormone Therapy Specialist, Joy Drexler who has literally changed my life! From the first meeting with her, I felt like she explained the process and what to expect while always being so warm, caring and very attentive to any questions I had! Immediately I noticed my focus at work and my energy improved greatly. My workouts became easier and longer. I feel like I’m in my my 20’s again! She has truly improved my quality of life.
