She knew there had to be a better way.Rather than accept failed protocols, Dr. Miskell immersed herself in bioidentical hormone therapy and pioneered an injection method that helps women feel relief from day one. As Medical Director of Hormones by Design, she’s built a practice around individualized treatment that not only eases symptoms but also helps prevent heart disease, osteoporosis and dementia.What sets her apart isn’t just three decades of expertise, but her determination to stand up for women when the system looks away. Through her practice and her leadership of PINCC, a global nonprofit preventing cervical cancer, she shows that when someone says “that’s just how it is,” they’re usually wrong.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------🔵 The Dust Test: https://www.thedusttest.com🔵 My Favorite Cleaning Products: https://www.homecleanse.com/shop/🔵 Remediation FREE Consultation: https://www.homecleanse.com/contact/Learn More:https://www.themichaelrubino.com/ https://www.homecleanse.com/shopLet’s Connect...Website: https://www.themichaelrubino.com/contact/IG: https://www.instagram.com/themichaelrubino/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@themichaelrubinoFB: https://www.facebook.com/themichaelrubino/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/themichaelrubino/
