Patient Reviews
May 03, 2019
I, like others have only good to say about Dr Okshteyn. I had seen her when she was at Regional Endocrinology in Santa Fe NM years ago. I found her to be very 'functional medicine orientated' and she listened, was caring and respective. She also took the initiative to correct another less functioning doctors prematurely putting me on stats that my blood work showed that my liver was not liking at all and gave me useful alternatives. Since my Endo Dr has left practice, I decided to look her up as I heard she had gone into her own practice but did not realize that meant she had left Santa Fe too.
