It offers three services: Integrative Medicine, Lyme Disease Treatment and Bio-Identical Hormones.

For hormones, it describes bio-identical hormones given alongside nutritional and lifestyle therapies. No specific hormone or medication is named.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. There is no consultation fee, no per-visit price, and no statement on whether insurance is accepted or whether a fee includes medication. Nothing is published about membership, financing or cancellation. Call 650-433-8925 before you book and ask for the consultation fee, the cost of a follow-up visit, the cost of lab work, and the price of any hormone or Lyme prescription. Ask for the answers in writing if you can.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who would sign your prescription. Christine G, MD, and Mindy Daigle, NP, are the listed prescribers, so ask which of them you would see and how often.

Ask whether any hormone prescribed is an FDA-approved product or a compounded preparation, and ask for the names of the medications. None are named in the practice's materials.

Ask whether any monthly or program fee covers medication, or only the visits.

Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, and how often they are needed.

Ask whether telemedicine visits are offered. Telephone and telemedicine visits need prior approval from Dr. Green, so ask how that approval works and whether those visits cost more.

Ask which office you would be seen at. The address given throughout is Palo Alto, but one listing also names a Mountain View office.

Ask which guideline your Lyme care follows and how the practice chooses tests and treatments. The practice names the ILADS standard of care as its guide.

Ask for the office hours, since none are listed, and ask how to cancel and whether any prepaid fee can be refunded.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a physician-led integrative practice in Palo Alto with a focus on tick-borne disease or bio-identical hormones, and you are ready to pay out of pocket and get the costs in writing before you book. If you need a published price before you call, start with the phone call and ask for the numbers first.
