About UROLOGY SPECIALISTS OF SANTA BARBARA

What is Urology Specialists of Santa Barbara?

Urology Specialists of Santa Barbara is a urology practice, and testosterone replacement is one of its services. It has been in private practice in the Santa Barbara area since 2004 and now operates as Cottage Urology Clinic, part of Cottage Medical Group. Its office is in the Goleta Valley Medical Building in Santa Barbara, and its office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30am to 5pm. Its prescribers are Dr. Julie Chacko, Thomas Bosma and Dr Pierre-Alain Hueber, PhD. Dr. Chacko is certified by the American Board of Urology.

Testosterone replacement is the only hormone service it lists. Most of the practice is general urology and urologic surgery: vasectomy and vasectomy reversal, erectile dysfunction, incontinence, urinary stones, enlarged prostate, and prostate, bladder and kidney cancer. It does not list weight loss, peptide or longevity programs. In its own words: "We utilize a no-needle, no-scalpel technique for doing vasectomies."

This listing is for its Santa Barbara office at 351 S Patterson Ave.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices for testosterone therapy or for consultations. It does not say whether it accepts insurance, whether HSA or financing is available, or whether medication is included in any price. Its terms and policies section holds placeholder text rather than real reservation or cancellation policies, so those terms are not published either.

The office number is 805-879-4230. The practice asks patients to call that number for more information or to make an appointment, so it is the simplest way to get a quote before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

It does not say which physician runs its testosterone therapy, so ask who writes the prescription and who follows you afterward. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded, and whether it is included in the price. Ask what the consultation costs and whether it is billed to insurance.

Monitoring after starting testosterone includes PSA testing and a prostate exam, so ask what those visits and lab work cost. It does not say whether telehealth is offered, so ask whether any follow-up can be done remotely. Finally, ask how to cancel or change an appointment, since its policy text is still placeholder.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want testosterone therapy from a urologist, at a practice that also handles the rest of urologic care, and you are willing to get a price and a prescriber's name on the phone before you commit. If you are looking for a clinic built around hormone therapy, weight loss or peptides, it does not publish programs of that kind, so a call is worth making only to confirm what it offers.
