First visit
Know what to expect.
Bring any recent lab results and a list of medicines and supplements you take, if you have them. We’ll start with what you’ve noticed and what you want to understand.
Talk through what has changed
Tell Iván when you first noticed changes and how they affect your day. Share your health history and any plans to have children.
Choose the appropriate tests
Iván will explain which lab tests make sense for you. If he suspects low testosterone, confirming it may take a second early-morning blood test.
Review your options
Iván explains the results and recommends a next step based on your symptoms, health history, and test results. If he recommends treatment, you’ll discuss options and cost before starting.
Does one low result mean I need treatment?
Testosterone levels can vary from day to day. Your clinician considers your symptoms and usually confirms a low result with a repeat early-morning blood test.
What if I want to have children?
Tell Iván before starting treatment. Testosterone therapy can reduce sperm production, and your plans to have children can affect which options are appropriate.
How much does it cost to get started?
The initial consultation and screening costs $350, charged once. If treatment is appropriate, you’ll discuss its cost after Iván reviews your results.
Can I book in Spanish?
Yes. Iván sees patients in Spanish and English. You can switch languages at the top of this page or call the clinic for help booking.
