My primary physician referred me to Dr. Drapkin and Collin Dees, PA at the Institute of Vitality. As a chronic Lyme patient I knew my hormones were off and needed advice especially because I had a lumpectomy and wasn’t sure how safe it was to take bio identical hormones. I am relieved to say that these two physicians have allowed me to feel safe and confident that they could get me on the right path.

And they are a pleasure to work with; knowledgeable, patient, caring and very professional. They take the time to listen and hear you with respect and acknowledgment, which is healing in itself. A new breed of physicians! I highly recommend them!

“The Institute of Vitality has changed my life. At 50 I thought I was stuck with the body had at the time, feeling sluggish and tired day to day forcing myself to the gym. Now at 51, I’ve lost 6% body fat and gained muscle. I’ve never felt better! I look forward to getting to the gym.”

Dr. Drapkin and his assistant Collin were very helpful and very understanding about my symptoms. They explained to me that as we age certain hormones and other factors can and will get thrown out of balance, causing many of the issues I was facing. They were able to customize a plan that was just right for me and my situation. Not some “one size fits all” approach. I really appreciated that about them. I also appreciate that everything they prescribe is bioidentical. Being somewhat of a naturalist, this is very important to me.  

It’s now been about 90 days or so since I first started the regime that has been prescribed. I am astounded at the results so far. I definitely feel like a different person just like Collin said I would. A much better version of myself. I look forward to how great I’ll be feeling in the next 90 days.

“My primary physician advised weight loss surgery when I asked about my energy levels and weight loss. Dr. Drapkin didn’t do surgery he put my on the right medications and changed my life without surgery.”

The Institute of Vitality was recommended to me by a coworker. I called and spoke with Colin and he explained the program to me. Before the call I was apprehensive, but after speaking with Colin I was ready to make a change. I got my bloodwork and had my first appointment and I’m so glad I did.

They gave me the knowledge and the tools to be successful and for the first time in a while I was seeing weight loss. I am so grateful to have my PCOS symptoms under control. It’s only been 8 weeks and I’ve lost 35lbs!!

My energy and confidence is coming back. I am still working for more growth and success and now I know I can do it. The support that comes with this program has been so valuable to me, they make themselves available for questions and for words of encouragement. If you’re looking for a sign to start, this is it!
