    I'm rating this four stars so you can see this comment. The…read moredoctor, Roskos, is actually a wonderful Doctor and I love seeing her BUT getting in contact with the office is IMPOSSIBLE! You never actually speak to someone and if you do they are of no help. Getting your prescription filled is the hardest thing ever. Oh and when you actually go to the office don't expect to talk to anyone there either because they are too busy gossiping behind a window. Other than my doctor everyone I've dealt with there is rude. Basically the only interaction with a person you're ever going to have is with your doctor during your appointment. Good luck.

    If you are using Camellia City OB/GYN for hormone replacement therapy, I strongly encourage you to…read moreask questions, advocate for yourself, and discuss appropriate bloodwork and monitoring with your provider. I have been receiving BioTE hormone replacement therapy since 2010. I originally started treatment with BioTE founder Dr. Gary S. Donovitz and, over the years, have received treatment from physicians in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and Southeast Florida. After moving to Mississippi, I needed to find a local physician to continue my hormone pellet therapy. That is when I began seeing Dr. Roskos at Camellia City OB/GYN. Before receiving my pellets, I explained my family history of heart disease and told Dr. Roskos that my body naturally produces testosterone. I also explained that my previous physicians either did not give me testosterone or gave me very little because of my individual history and lab results. At my first visit, I received a testosterone dose of 125. Afterward, I began feeling extremely tired and simply did not feel right. When I contacted the office, I was told that I needed a testosterone boost. Because of my concerns, I specifically asked whether bloodwork should be performed to check my hormone levels before receiving a boost. I was told no. When it was time for my regular three-month appointment, I asked again about having bloodwork performed. Again, I was told it was not necessary. At that appointment, I received another round of hormone pellets. After leaving the office, I contacted the nurse again and asked about scheduling bloodwork before my next treatment, which would have been at the end of September 2026. I was again told that bloodwork was not necessary. I continued feeling very tired and unwell, so I decided to see another wellness physician and paid to have a comprehensive blood panel performed. My testosterone level came back at 452, and my hemoglobin was also elevated. The physician who reviewed my results was concerned enough about the elevated hemoglobin and potential clotting risk that I was advised to donate blood no later than the following day. Those results were extremely concerning to me. I subsequently contacted BioTE Corporate to discuss my concerns and the monitoring of hormone levels. Based on that conversation, I understood that bloodwork should be part of monitoring BioTE pellet therapy. When I raised my concerns with Dr. Roskos, I was told that she had been trained differently and that insurance often would not pay for the bloodwork. That did not match my own experience. I have been receiving hormone replacement therapy since 2010 and had not previously encountered an issue with obtaining the bloodwork my physicians believed was necessary to monitor my treatment. Because of this experience, I made the decision to discontinue treatment with Camellia City OB/GYN. I am sharing my personal experience because I want other women receiving hormone replacement therapy to ask questions and be proactive about their care. If something does not feel right, speak up. Ask what you are being given, ask about your dosage, ask when your levels will be checked, and discuss with your healthcare provider what monitoring is appropriate for you. Most importantly, if you are concerned about your treatment, consider getting a second medical opinion.
