"I had already been on HRT for almost 10 months when I first saw Dr. Deutsch. She did ask questions about why I wanted<br />
HRT, and various things related to it. It was less than 10 minutes for that stuff."<br />
Report from reddit, May 2012 - You have to wait three months after (LAGLC) your intake appointment to actually get your script.<br />
"I've been trying to get an appointment (don't have a car though, so it's been tricky) and when you call they let you know that your<br />
first appointment is an intake, and then three months after that you actually have your first appointment with Dr.Deutsch"<br />
