    FAQ

    Common questions

    Who is this consultation for?

    Adults experiencing symptoms that may relate to hormonal imbalance: including fatigue, sleep disruption, mood changes, weight shifts, low libido, perimenopause, menopause, or low testosterone. It's also suitable if you'd like a thorough, personalised assessment of your hormonal health.

    Do I need testing before my first consult?

    No. Dr Dan will review your symptoms and health history first, and only recommend testing where it is clinically indicated. Where appropriate, you'll receive a referral for blood work or functional testing.

    Will I be prescribed hormones?

    Hormone support is offered only where clinically appropriate, and always alongside lifestyle, nutritional and supplementation strategies. The goal is to support your body's natural processes rather than override them.

    Where are you based?

    Expand Health is located in De Waterkant, Cape Town. In-person consultations are recommended, with online follow-ups available where suitable.

    How long until I feel a difference?

    This varies depending on the underlying drivers and the plan agreed with Dr Dan. Most patients have a follow-up within 4–8 weeks to review progress and adjust the plan.
