The Ruth Pettle Wellness Center is named in memory of his mother who passed away from breast cancer. Dr. Pettle actively teaches young doctors to be able to safely use bio-identical hormones. Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, also known as bio-identical hormone therapy or natural hormone therapy, is the use of hormones that are identical on a molecular level with endogenous hormones in hormone replacement therapy. With the support of his expert team, Dr. Pettle uses the latest technology and techniques in hormone replacement therapy to tackle the problems associated with ageing and menopause.
