Biography
Dr. Plucknett performs Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy and dedicates her Wayne, New Jersey-based practice to helping women and men find relief from hormonal imbalances such as menopause, andropause (the male menopause), adrenal fatigue and thyroid disorders, using a three-tiered approach to wellness, combining customized nutrition and fitness regimens with bioidentical hormone therapy. Dr. Plucknett believes that proper diet, regular exercise and balanced hormones are the cornerstones of longevity. Dr. Plucknett made the decision to transition into anti-aging and preventive medicine, because she wanted the opportunity to spend more time with each patient, in order to address their health and wellness needs from a pre-emptive perspective. As a bioidentical hormones expert, Dr. Plucknett specializes in treating the underlying causes of symptoms oftentimes associated with aging, such as hot flashes, night sweats, low libido, weight gain, fatigue, mood swings and irritability. Dr. Barbara Plucknett received her undergraduate degree from Temple University in 1987 and completed her Medical Doctorate at Pennsylvania State University in 1991. Before practicing medicine, Dr. Plucknett fulfilled her residency of Obstetrics/Gynecology at the Medical Center of Delaware in 1995, followed by fellowships at Greater Baltimore Medical Center and the University of Maryland Medical System. Dr. Plucknett is currently an active member of the fellowship for Anti-Aging, Regenerative and Functional Medicine (FAAFM), and the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine.

I never write reviews but think I should in this instance in order to warn others of the terrible treatment and experience I’ve had with Dr. Plucknett, and her staff. If you do not like your phone calls returned, if you love being spoken down to and then being put into collection for a disputed bill, then this is the doctor for you! I’ve never in all my life met such cold hearted people who do not care about others. Truly very very sad. My credit rating is now negatively affected by this. What an injustice. Still waiting for someone over there to have HEART enough to help resolve this matter, and HONESTLY. Was told Dr. Plucknett has final say in all this and can help me get this mess finally cleared up - yet, she still has not returned any of my three phone calls this past year...that alone says it all. I wish I had read other reviews about her before making my appointment, it seems I am not alone in these circumstances. Beware.
