Insurance & Pricing

Many of our services may be covered by insurance, including consultations and certain lab tests. We accept most major insurance plans and provide detailed documentation for reimbursement purposes. Hormone therapy and acupuncture are often covered depending on your specific plan and medical necessity. Initial consultations range from $200-300, with follow-up visits typically $100-150. Hormone treatments vary based on individual needs, generally ranging from $150-400 monthly. We offer package deals and payment plans to make our services accessible to more patients.

First-Time Patient Tips

Before your first appointment, we recommend stopping any biotin supplements 72 hours prior to lab work, as they can interfere with hormone testing. Come prepared with a list of all current medications, supplements, and previous lab results if available. It's helpful to track your symptoms for a week before your visit, noting energy levels, sleep patterns, and appetite changes.

Wear comfortable clothing for body composition analysis. Most patients benefit from scheduling their initial appointment when they have time to discuss their health history thoroughly. We encourage questions, so write them down beforehand. Follow our pre-appointment guidelines for the most accurate lab results and productive consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long before I see results from hormone therapy?

Most patients notice initial changes in energy and sleep within 2-3 weeks. Significant weight loss typically begins around 6-8 weeks as hormones optimize.

Is hormone replacement therapy safe?

When properly monitored by experienced physicians, bio-identical hormone therapy is safe and effective. We conduct regular testing to ensure optimal levels and minimize risks.

Do I need to follow a strict diet?

We create realistic, sustainable meal plans rather than restrictive diets. Our nutritionists work with your preferences and lifestyle to develop eating patterns you can maintain long-term.

How often will I need appointments?

Initial phase includes monthly visits for the first three months. Once stable, many patients transition to quarterly check-ups with lab monitoring.

What makes your approach different from other weight loss clinics?

We focus on hormone optimization as the foundation of weight loss. This addresses why traditional diet and exercise may have failed in the past.

Can men benefit from your programs?

Absolutely. Men often experience significant results from testosterone optimization and metabolic support, especially after age 35.

Do you offer virtual consultations?

We provide telemedicine follow-ups for established patients. Initial consultations require in-person visits for comprehensive evaluation and testing.
