I have found working with Dr Lascar to stabilise my unruly hormones due to menopause and hypothyroidism extremely helpful. Dr Lascar has listened carefully and worked with me based on my symptoms and blood tests results to balance my overall hormone health through a totally bespoke approach using conventional meds along with bio-identical hormones. Dr Lascar's advice on medicine is thoroughly backed up with practical and realistic advice to achieve optimal health. My symptoms have dramatically improved since starting to see Dr Lascar 6 months ago, I feel I am totally in safe hands.

I was signposted to Monica by two different sources. Both of whom told me, they had found her to be very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful, which has also been my experience. I also found Monica to be warm, approachable, and thorough. She was very responsive and I really appreciated her quick turnaround of information. Monica was generous with her time, and I felt I was in very safe and experienced hands. I would highly recommend her.

I have been consulting remotely with Dr Lascar for 18 months for HRT to help with low bone density following primary hyperparathyroidism and steroid treatment. She has gone above and beyond to help me get a mammogram and blood testing at a hostital local to me during lockdown to help establish a baseline for treatment. At all times she explains her approach and is also open to hear and assess any alternative view put forward. The testing programme and hormones prescribed would not have been available to me from my GP. I already have evidence that my bone loss has slowed and my estrogen is being detoxified with reduced risk. In addition Dr Lascar has provided letters to update my GP and request blood tests at my local surgery and this process has worked well.
