Michele Ralph 

Hello!  I am Michele Ralph, and I am pleased to introduce myself to you.  I am a medical assistant at Forever Young Health, and am certified in California and in Nevada to provide injections, and in phlebotomy (drawing blood).  My internship and training began in endocrinology.  I worked in that capacity for 5 years.   Endocrinology is the discipline that studies the function, chemistry and action of hormones.  I have been fortunate to work with well known and experienced doctors in an exciting and growing field!  My experience prior to my medical training included sales, and as I act as the liaison between the doctor and the patient, that experience, I believe, helps me to make you, our clients,  feel relaxed and comfortable.   I am the person who will first get to know you and ask about your needs, concerns, and questions prior to your meeting with a doctor here.   This involves a medical intake questionnaire, and may involve my drawing a blood sample or doing a saliva test.  

My interest and experience in endocrinology naturally morphed into anti-aging, and I have been involved in anti-aging for the last 7 years.   Anti-aging therapy involves hormone balancing.  Endocrinology is an aspect of this as it studies the three classes of hormones:  amines which include thyroid hormones; peptide hormones and proteins; and steroid hormones, one of which is estrogen.  Along with the doctor, I ensure that you, the patient always have a knowledgeable and sympathetic person available to answer any concerns or questions which may arise or to provide you with places to go for answers to your questions.      Not only am I passionate about what I do, I  am concerned that you receive superior customer service and that we establish a long lasting relationship.
