OUR PATIENTS SAY IT BEST

I’ve been working with Dr. Hirsch for several years. His level of expertise and commitment for
excellent is unsurpassed in the medical profession.  If you’re looking for a doctor that has up-to-
date knowledge and years of experience practicing medicine, you’ve come to the right guy.
But he is not for everyone.  He expects his patients to take their health as seriously as he does.
 He will not be very tolerant of poor effort by his patients.  You’ll be expected to make healthy
lifestyle changes or else!

He’s not the kind of doctor that’s just going to give you a pill and leave it at that.  He will take a
personal interest in your wellbeing and use your lab results to modify your regimen until your
blood work is optimal.  So if you’re committed to a healthy lifestyle and are willing to make a few
changes at his direction, then you’re going to love this. 

I have referred many of my friends and acquaintances to Dr. Hirsch over the years and those
who were compliant have had dramatic results.  I’m doing great as well.  Hirsch can spot
problems that the other doctors miss and he knows how to fix them.  I encourage anyone who
wants to make a positive impact on their long-term health to contact Dr. Hirsch.

I first visited Dr. Hirsch almost 3 years ago, weighed over 200 lbs, felt awful, and had no desire to do things in life that made me happy, due to feeling tired and just old. I thought that was the way you felt when you turned 50. Wrong! I have never felt better!! I’ve dropped 80 lbs and have the passion back in my life! I can’t imagine not having Dr. Hirsch’s guidance. I guess I’m still aging, I just can’t feel it! What a wonderful Man! This life is changed!!!

A year ago, I was 40 lbs heavier, anxious, depressed, “cloudy headed,” and severely lacking in motivation. This had actually been going on for several years.  I had been diagnosed with PCOS and hypothyroidism years ago, and type 2 diabetes a couple of years ago.  My regular doctor just put me on Synthetic thyroid pills, birth control pills, cholesterol pills, and told me to lose weight — all the while watching my weight, cholesterol, fatty liver numbers, and blood pressure climb.  I thought there was nothing else that we could do, until I got Dr. Hirsch’s name from a friend of a friend of a friend. Guys, this is why women talk. We know someone out there needs to know something we do.  😉  

That unknown friend three times removed sparked a major change in my life. After a three-hour drive to my first appointment, I came away with hope. After lab work and a second appointment, we trashed all my old prescriptions and had a strategy for getting my hormones and me healthy. I am a challenging case. I have/had every symptom of PCOS. At the year mark, we’ve seen significant improvement evident by my lab work, by how I look, and most importantly by how I feel and act.

But I didn’t have to wait a year to realize improvement. I had the hope of it by the end of the first appointment. I felt it the first day I started my Amour thyroid prescription. And I rejoiced in it when I experienced my first menses in several years.

Look ladies, I could go on about what we did, and what worked, but you can get that from Dr. Hirsch. What you need from me is what will get you to a doctor like Hirsch: motivation. I wasted my thirties with doctors who couldn’t see the whole picture, and really didn’t know what to do with any of it. I had given up on having a child but now have hope. I had given up on losing weight and now weigh less than when my husband and I started dating. I’m 40 and now weigh what I did before turning 30.

That should be plenty of motivation for you, but I would be leaving out the most important. Yes that weight was heavy, but how I was feeling inside and inside my head was what was really weighing me down. Now I feel like a size 8 instead of size 26 (the tag on my new jeans says 16, and I was a 20!).

Oh, wait. Just two more things. Is your doctor is testing your T3, free? No? You need to be looking for another doctor. Does your doctor want you on statins for cholesterol? See Dr. Hirsch. His supplement regimen lowered mine from 234 (on a statin) to 156 (no statin) in short order.

I think of myself as a simple ranch kid (a denial of my recent 40th birthday) though I have a degree in economics, managed a research lab, conducted trainings, and consulted across the nation. But it matters not if you are wearing dirty jeans or expensive high heels. As women we influence the well being of so many people.  We deserve and should take advantage of opportunities to maintain and improve our own well-being.

I struggled for over 10 years with fatigue and the inability to lose weight! I eat very healthy and work out five days a week. However, constant fatigue and average weight was the result year in and year out. I went to various doctors that did blood tests that showed “everything was functioning just fine.” Finally, I researched Dr. Hirsch and decided to make an appointment. The individual attention to detail was an immediate attraction to me! Dr. Hirsch takes your needs personally and does not stop until he finds the problem. Come to find out, my body was not producing testosterone and my thyroid was not converting (T3 to T4 or vice versa….not sure of the details) as it should. With the help of Dr. Hirsch I lost over 25 lbs and continue to feel younger and more energetic! My workouts and my eating habits are the same, but my body is drastically different now that things truly are working as they should. I wish that I would have found Dr. Hirsch earlier and saved myself so much agony!My job requires me to be physically, mentally and emotionally fit, and Dr. Hirsch has helped me do just that! He and his staff are amazing and they will change your life!

I do want to take the time tell you that OMG I have never felt better in my whole life! I have energy that I can never remember having. I’ve always been so fatigued even when I was a young child. You really are changing my life, and I am convinced a higher power brought me to you. I always thought the way I felt was “normal” and just accepted it. I’m tearing up as I write this email. It is such a dramatic change in my life. I have energy to get up and go play catch with my son and take him to the park. My house has never been cleaner. It is just amazing the way my body is changing. Everyone close to me tells me I have transformed into a completely different person. Thank you so much for what you are helping me overcome. I am sure you get emails like this every day, but I feel I owe you at the very least this letter of thanks. I don’t know how I went on that long not knowing I was capable of being this new person. I’m a better mom, employee, daughter and every other role I play because of you. Thank you again,

When my wife and I went to see Dr. Hirsch we had been seeing another doctor and thought our numbers were in line and healthy. My wife Vivian’s numbers were great, yet my numbers were not. Dr. Hirsch showed me these numbers and said I best change a number of my habits in my lifestyle or 70 years of age might not happen. Well, with his guidance and my wife making sure his requests were done, my numbers now are in line. I feel better, energy level is great, fat percentage is down. muscle content is up. At 65 years old, I play racquetball with guys half my age, lifting weights, eating much better and feeling like 120 years old is a possibility (well, maybe 110). Thanks Dr. Hirsch for being direct to the point and making my life longer. I admit God must have had a big hand in it for allowing you into our lives. Thank so very much for your help.

I started seeing Dr. Hirsch when I turned 60, 51/2 years ago. I had been seeing several doctors (endocrinologist, gynecologist, breast surgeon, bone and mineral specialist, internist, etc.) for 12 to 15 years and was really discouraged about my lack of progress. I had insulin dependent diabetes, Hypothyroidism, osteoporosis, menopause symptoms and was overweight. Dr. Hirsch did a really thorough evaluation and found that my diabetes and thyroid problems were autoimmune. He addressed my immune system problems with nutrition, lifestyle modifications, vitamins and supplements. At the same time I started taking the proper thyroid medication that I had previously not been prescribed. He balanced my hormone deficiencies with natural, bio-identical hormones. The results have really been wonderful! My sugar is normal. My bone density went up 20% and I was discharged from the bone and mineral department at the medical school. I lost over 20 pounds and went from a size 8 to a size 4. My energy and physical functioning are better than they were 25 years ago. My husband is really happy too:). I never knew any of this was possible. I am so grateful.
Thank you, Dr. H

Dr. Hirsch Changed My Life!! I am 48 years old and have seen 4 other bioidentical hormone doctors in the last 5 years and had zero results. I have been seeing Dr. Hirsch for 4 months and this is the first time I have seen results from any Bioidentical hormone therapy. I was diagnosed with having PCOS many years ago but Dr. Hirsch is the only doctor who figured out I am actually hypothyroid, which he is correcting with a compounded thyroid medication. In 4 months my excess weight is finally coming off and I feel amazing. I did not even know I had brain fog until it lifted. I thought I had a normal happy sex life all these years until Dr. Hirsch balanced my hormones and now I feel like I am in a second honeymoon! My husband is thrilled! I can honestly say Dr. Hirsch has changed my life for the better and I am so thrilled to have found him. Don’t even bother going to anyone else, Dr. Hirsch is the guy to go to. He is the most competent doctor out there in my opinion and is such a pleasure to see. Call him! You won’t be disappointed!

Hello – my name is Steven Gendler. I’ve been a patient of Dr. Hirsch’s for about three years now. I’m 68 years old and have been married for 34 years. We have one child, a 31 year old daughter. I was recommended to Dr. Hirsch by a friend of mine who had lost quite a bit of weight and was looking really fit and feeling strong. He and I are avid tennis players and while he is almost ten years younger than I am we were closely competitive on the courts. All of a sudden he was beating me regularly and I was starting to feel my age. I visited Dr. Hirsch and was very impressed with his thorough health evaluation…including a very detailed blood analysis. His conclusions brought several recommendations for changes to my diet and exercise routine, and recommendations for vitamins, bio identical hormone replacement, and a recommendation for weight loss. I have followed Dr. Hirsch’s recommendations as closely as possible and am feeling very healthy, energetic, clear in my thinking, and overall enjoying very good health. In addition I am still very competitive on the tennis courts and recently won the 65 and over Texas State Doubles Championship with my tennis partner and teammates. Dr. Hirsch focused on my weight control and diet control initially…then he added in the hormone replacement therapy along with vitamins and mineral replacements. He regularly has me follow up with blood tests and meetings in his office. I heartily recommend Dr. Hirsch!

 


My wife and I have known Dr. Hirsch for about 2 years. In that short time the quality of our lives has changed drastically. Beyond the unprecedented weight loss, Dr. Hirsch has guided us to a healthier lifestyle. Focused on hormone and nutritional balance, we have regained a youthful and energetic outlook to life.

Dr Hirsch is amazing! He has helped me so much in my journey toward optimizing my health. They are the perfect team. After years of going to countless doctors explaining to them my horrible and frightening symptoms, they would only run generic tests that always showed I was “normal.” Because of the “normal” test results and the fact that I “looked” healthy, all the doctors I saw would brush me aside. THEN I met Dr. Albert Hirsch. Dr Hirsch was/is a God Send! He really listened to me and thoroughly explained his theories on health, bioidentical hormones and eating healthy etc.(my first appointment ran almost 2 hours long!). He ran many many tests, tests others doctors never had. Lo and behold, I have Hashimoto’s, PCOS, extremely low progesterone (why I know I also have stage IV endometriosis) and very low testosterone. I started seeing him about 4 months ago and am already feeling better. Unfortunately with thyroid diseases, finding your optimal dosage takes some time but I am getting there! The metformin given to me for PCOS almost instantly improved my insulin resistance/hypoglycemia symptoms! The progesterone supplements have done wonders for my endometriosis symptoms, which include extreme fatigue and very painful cramps. And the testosterone cream has made me feel amazing!!! Hirsch Clinic has such an inviting feel to it. Everyone is so nice there. Dr Hirsch really loves trying to help people feel better and I am sooo thankful to him! My case is rather complicated but he never turned me away. If anything I think my complications were more of a challenge to him, making him determined to figure out my body. He is always a call, email or text away! Even at night or weekends! He has gone ABOVE & BEYOND what even “good” doctors do, making him GREAT! Dr Hirsch is a straightforward guy so be prepared for him to tell you exactly what he thinks, which is what I think anyone would want in a doctor! He wants nothing more than for his patients to feel “great.” My advice to any new patients is to TRUST him. Follow his advice/instructions to the T.
