About Ob-Gyn Associates of Montgomery

What is Ob-Gyn Associates of Montgomery?

Ob-Gyn Associates of Montgomery is a women's health practice with offices in Montgomery, Prattville and Troy, Alabama. Its core work is obstetrics and gynecology, covering pregnancy care, infertility, menopause treatment, birth control including IUDs and Nexplanon, tubal ligation, and incontinence care. It also offers mammography, bone density scans, nurse midwifery, surgery (including robotic procedures with the da Vinci system) and MonaLisa Touch laser treatment for vaginal health. Gregory Waller, MD founded the practice, and it has provided care for women of all ages for over 20 years. On Google it has a rating of 5 from 14 reviews.

Hormone pellet therapy is not on its services list. It appears in the bio of Joseph Desautels, MD, who is board certified in obstetrics and gynecology, has practiced in Montgomery since 1999, and is listed at the Montgomery and Prattville offices. In its own words: "Since 2009, bio identical hormone pellet therapy has been part of Dr. Desautels’ practice." His bio also points to a separate website about the method. It does not publish a price or name the medication used for pellet therapy.

This listing is for its Prattville office at 1785 Fairview Ave.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices, not for visits, consultations or pellet therapy. It does not say whether it accepts insurance, or whether pellet therapy is covered by insurance or paid in cash. No membership plan or cancellation terms are published. If cost matters to your decision, ask for the full figure in writing before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with who prescribes. Ask whether Dr. Desautels personally prescribes and follows pellet therapy, or whether another clinician at the practice does, and which office you would visit. Next, ask what one total price covers: the pellets, the placement visits, lab work and follow-up appointments. Ask which hormone the pellets contain and whether the medication is brand name or compounded. Ask how blood work is ordered and what it costs. Then ask whether pellet therapy is covered by insurance or paid in cash, and how to stop or cancel if you change your mind. Since telehealth is not mentioned, ask whether any follow-up can be done by video.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you need OB-GYN care in Montgomery, Prattville or Troy and want to ask about pellet therapy from a physician who has included it in his practice since 2009. If pellet therapy is the main reason you are calling, get the price and the medication in writing first.
