Reviews

Here at One Ashford Hospital, we are always pleased to hear what our patients think of the service they have received.  Below is a snapshot of the some of the excellent feedback we have received for Ms Lexie Minter.

As you would expect, Lexie is incredibly knowledgeable about menopause, hormones and HRT but she explains everything in a way you can understand so I finally understand the importance of oestrogen. She’s wonderfully relaxed so I felt very comfortable and at ease talking about very personal topics.

Lexie has been so helpful. She has been supportive and provided me with everything I needed for a good quality of life and to help me maintain my wellbeing. She is AMAZING!!

I had been on HRT from the doctor since January 2018 at 49 years old. To begin with, I felt better, but as the years went on, I felt like I was on a downward spiral with my mental health. I contacted my doctor, who put me on Beta Blockers for my chronic anxiety and panic attacks, but I felt this was not the answer. In Spring 2023, I heard about Lexie, who was conducting consultations for Hormone Health at the One Hospital. I booked an appointment and felt understood for the first time. I was in a dark place, and Lexie knew from my medical history that I was on a much lower dose of HRT. Lexie prescribed me a whole new HRT prescription and four months on, I now feel like me again. I have a sense of joy; I can cope with the everyday tasks and my job again. I am motivated to exercise, sleep well, have no brain fog, and no more chronic anxiety or aching joints. I was also prescribed Androfeme (female testosterone) and now have a higher sex drive than my husband, and more importantly, I have my smile back. I can’t thank Lexie enough for helping me; she is fantastic.
