  • My consultation with Dr. Sharzad Green was very informative and enlightening for my overall well-being. Based on her recommendations for bio-identical hormones, and supplements which I have implemented, I feel like a new person!! My body doesn't ache nearly as much, my energy level has increased, my fatigue has decreased immensely, and I actually have a little "pep in my step" and a happier outlook that's been missing for quite awhile. Since my consultation I have reached out to her a number of times with questions or concerns, and she has always gotten back to me promptly. She truly cares about her patients and it shows. I'm very grateful that I was referred to Dr. Sharzad Green, and I have recommended her to many of my friends. Thank you Dr. Sharzad Green for all you do, much success to you always! ~ D.K.
