Long Distance and International Clients
Those who live at a great distance may arrange a formal telephone consultation. Dr. Lindner
cannot order insurance-covered tests without a telephone consult or office visit. He can
prescribe hormones only after an office visit. See
Testing for the lab tests that he usually wants
to see. You can obtain these on your own or with the help of your local physician. Doctors will
only order tests that they believe are necessary, so if you decide to ask your local physician to
order tests, be sure to discuss your symptoms with him/her so that the doctor may agree that
the tests may be helpful. The best combination is the saliva cortisol profile and the specified
blood tests.

Phone Consultation
Send copies of lab tests, the completed forms, a digical photo of yourself, and any other
relevant medical information to Dr. Lindner's office: either by e-mail, mail, or fax. The best
e-mail attachment is a single .pdf (Acrobat) file that contains the completed forms and lab
results. Then call the office to arrange a phone consult. After the phone consult, Dr. Lindner will
send you a copy of his notes including recommendations. As per the contract, the call would be
$4 per minute, plus post-call documentation time charged at the same rate.

If your local doctor is willing to prescribe hormones for you, then either you or your doctor may
consult with Dr. Lindner by phone as needed.
