About the doctor
Kathleen Broderick, MD, FACP
Board-certified internist. Forty-one years in practice. American-born, American-educated, and practicing in Naples, Florida — where she personally evaluates, prescribes, and follows every testosterone patient.
Training and experience
Dr. Broderick earned her medical degree at Albany Medical College in 1985 and completed her internship and residency in internal medicine in New York, including training at Sloan Kettering. She went on to serve as a consultant at the Mayo Clinic before establishing her practice in Naples, where she has cared for adults for decades and is affiliated with NCH Baker Hospital downtown.
She is board-certified in internal medicine by the American Board of Internal Medicine and a Fellow of the American College of Physicians (FACP). She is fluent in English and Spanish.
Why testosterone
In her words: “Testosterone is dynamite. It can change your life. I have been practicing for 41 years, and I have been impressed with the remarkable results. You may have heard about increased libido, energy, muscle, red blood cells, and better sleep — well, it's true. To ensure adequacy and safety, I will be personally supervising your treatment.”
That last sentence is the point of this practice. Testosterone is a prescription medication with real benefits and real risks, and the results depend on who is reading the labs and setting the dose. Here it is a physician with four decades of internal medicine behind her, for men and for women.
How she practices
- One physician, start to finish. Dr. Broderick takes the history, orders and reads the labs, prescribes, and follows you at every visit.
- An internist's eye. Low energy and low libido have many causes. She looks for thyroid disease, anemia, sleep apnea, depression, and medication effects before reaching for hormones.
- Honest about evidence. She tells you what is well established, what is less studied (especially for women), and what she recommends for you in particular.
- Safety built in. Screening for prostate, breast, and other cancers, blood disorders, heart disease, and pregnancy plans comes before any prescription; monitoring continues during treatment.
- In person, in Naples. Visits are at her office on Second Avenue North. Walk-ins are welcome Wednesdays at 4 PM.
Internal medicine, second opinions, and physicals
Dr. Broderick is accepting adult patients for second opinions, consultations, and complete history and physicals. If you want an experienced internist to look at the whole picture — a diagnosis you are unsure of, a medication list that has grown too long, or a set of symptoms nobody has explained — you do not need to be a hormone patient to see her.
