At Dr. Scott’s, we want to improve the quality of your life. Our approach to age, weight and hormone management is both comprehensive and personal. Dr. Scott Shapiro knows that you are MORE than numbers on a lab report; he treats YOU, the individual.

We are now entering a new era in mainstream medicine that focuses on preventing health problems associated with aging. One of the most important preventive therapies in this new paradigm of care is identifying those with hormonal deficiencies, and supplementing them with bioidentical hormones to optimal physiologic levels. Treatment addresses not only your symptoms, but the degenerative diseases associated with these deficiencies.

Perhaps you have a testosterone deficiency, are suffering with PMS, or are in perimenopause, menopause or andropause. Maybe you suffer with adrenal fatigue, fibromyalgia or thyroid issues. Many of these diseases have overlapping symptoms, so it is important to have a physician who understands how these pieces fit together in affecting your overall health.

We are pleased to introduce our newest age management therapies including micronutrient and telomere testing. We are also excited to offer cutting edge therapies utilizing your own body’s platelet rich plasma, or PRP. Growth factors are released which can rejuvenate and revitalize tissue, giving you a younger look and feel. These include the Vampire Facelift®, Vampire Facial®, Vampire Breast Lift®, O-Shot® (which was given in the 2015 Oscar goodie bags!), P-Shot®, and hair restoration, without the use of surgery.

In addition to new techniques, Dr. Scott saw a need for easier personal access to lab testing; a place where people can come in and be tested in an anonymous, hassle-free environment, without the additional expense of an office visit. With this in mind, he established Dr. Scott’s Lab Testing Facility. We offer lab testing services that are available throughout the US. We are passionate about helping people's lives!

NOTE: Forever Health provides a directory where people like you can connect with BHRT and other physicians and innovative health practitioners. We do not provide medical advice or services directly. While BHRT and prevention are important to the physicians and health practitioners listed, each has his or her own approach to practicing medicine. So when scheduling your appointment, be sure to clarify the reason for your visit, as well as your goals for seeking out such treatment.

NOTE on Insurance: Innovative practitioners and insurance companies have long debated the importance of preventive medicine and services such as BHRT. Due to variations in coverage for novel treatment options, many practitioners will resolve this issue by providing their services on a cash-only basis. Forever Health encourages you to contact the practitioner to determine if any alternative payment options or post-visit reimbursements exist.

DISCLAIMER: Inclusion in this directory is free to practitioners and does not constitute endorsement by Forever Health. All health practitioners who appear on this list do so on the sole basis of their own expression of interest in the fields of BHRT or other integrative medicine. Forever Health does not verify the competence, professional credentials, business practices or validity of the expressed interests of these health practitioners. Forever Health makes no recommendation of any health practitioner on this list and makes no suggestion that any such health practitioner will cure, treat, or prevent any disease or condition.
