Initial consultations range from $350-500, with follow-up visits typically $200-350. Prescription medications vary widely in cost depending on insurance coverage, from $25-400 monthly. We provide detailed cost estimates upfront and offer payment plans for services not covered by insurance. HSA and FSA funds are accepted for all services.
First-Time Patient Tips
Prepare for your first appointment by gathering previous medical records, current medications list, and any recent lab results. We'll send you forms to complete beforehand, including detailed health history and eating pattern questionnaires. Consider tracking your current food intake for a week using our recommended apps.
Success with our program requires active participation in your care plan and honest communication with your team. Attend all scheduled appointments, take medications as prescribed, and use our patient app to track progress and ask questions between visits.
