Insurance & Pricing

We accept several major insurance plans for medical consultations and laboratory work, though specific coverage varies by plan and service. Many weight loss programs and specialty testing require out-of-pocket payment, but we provide transparent pricing upfront. Comprehensive initial consultations typically range from $300-400, with follow-up visits varying based on services provided. We offer package deals for multi-month programs that can provide cost savings for committed patients.

First-Time Patient Tips

Before your first visit, complete the comprehensive intake forms available on our website and gather any previous lab work or medical records related to your weight concerns. We recommend keeping a detailed food and symptom diary for at least one week prior to your appointment. This helps us identify patterns and potential food sensitivities that might be affecting your weight. Be prepared to discuss your complete health history, including stress levels, sleep patterns, and any medications or supplements you're currently taking. It's helpful to bring a list of questions and write down your specific weight loss goals and timeline expectations so we can create the most appropriate treatment plan for your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes your approach different from traditional weight loss clinics?

We focus on identifying and treating the root causes of weight gain, such as hormonal imbalances and metabolic dysfunction, rather than just prescribing appetite suppressants. Our holistic approach combines conventional medicine with natural therapies for sustainable results.

How do you determine if hormones are affecting my weight?

We perform comprehensive hormone testing including thyroid function, insulin levels, cortisol, and sex hormones. This helps us identify imbalances that may be making weight loss difficult and allows us to create targeted treatment plans.

Do you prescribe weight loss medications?

Yes, when appropriate and after thorough evaluation, we may prescribe FDA-approved weight loss medications. However, we always try to address underlying causes first through natural methods when possible.

How long does it typically take to see results?

While some patients notice increased energy and reduced cravings within a few weeks, significant weight loss typically occurs over 3-6 months. We focus on sustainable changes rather than rapid weight loss that's difficult to maintain.

Can you help with weight gain during menopause?

Absolutely. Menopausal weight gain is one of our specialties. We address hormonal changes, metabolic slowdown, and body composition changes that occur during this transition with targeted hormone optimization and metabolic support.

Do you provide meal plans or just general guidance?

We provide detailed, personalized nutrition plans based on your metabolic testing results, food preferences, and lifestyle. This includes specific meal suggestions, recipes, and shopping lists to make implementation easier.

What kind of follow-up support do you provide?

We schedule regular follow-up appointments to monitor progress and make plan adjustments. Patients also have access to our online portal for questions and support between visits.

Can you work with my other healthcare providers?

Yes, we believe in collaborative care and will coordinate with your other doctors as needed. We can share relevant test results and treatment plans to ensure all your healthcare providers are informed.
