I am a
Board Certified OB-GYN in Atlanta, Georgia and an expert on hormone therapy in
menopause. A graduate of University of Maryland School of Medicine, I have been
giving advice for over 25 years. I am a
speaking consultant for several pharmaceutical companies on the benefits and
risks of the controversial medicines – estrogen and progesterone.
I have
always been a strong advocate and prescriber of hormone therapy and other
natural remedies. I am a realistic believer in bio-identical hormones. I particularly like Suzanne Somer's approach. The monumental and controversial Woman's Health Initiative
(WHI) study which dropped it's bombshell in July, 2002 prompted me to start my
Email list, DrRehertsAlerts,
which currently has over 1000 members.
You are invited to join.
There is
widespread disagreement in the medical community and in the popular press regarding
the indications and safety of hormones.
I keep abreast of the most recent and ever-changing arguments for and
against their use in medical treatment.
Over the years I have accumulated hundreds of articles on this subject
which I Email to patients to back-up my advice – I believe medicine is more a
science than an art, and research is its foundation. I give many second opinions on this subject – I can be an
alternative viewpoint to your personal physician’s recommendations.
I am
available to give my views and opinions on hormone therapy, as well as the
latest news and research on this ever-changing subject.
