About Boulder Peak Health

What is Boulder Peak Health?

Boulder Peak Health is a medical practice at 4410 Arapahoe Ave #120 in Boulder, Colorado 80303, in the Viewpoint Professional Building. Dr. Nicole Silver is the prescriber. Her training is listed as board certification in internal medicine from UCSF and a fellowship in functional and regenerative medicine. Some of the material refers to her as Dr. Kiki Silver, so confirm the name that will appear on any prescription.

The practice offers four services: an integrative medicine consultation, specialty lab testing, and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for men and for women. Most of its material centers on hormone questions in menopause, peri-menopause and andropause. The lab menu includes adrenal and cortisol saliva testing, a thyroid panel, a food allergy panel, heavy metal testing and a digestive stool analysis. If hormone therapy is recommended after a consultation, compounded hormones may be prescribed in capsules or topical creams.

Consultations can take place by phone, by Skype or in person. It does not list hours. Google lists the practice under Doctor, with a 3.7 rating from 3 reviews.

In its own words: "All questions will be answered during these consultations by Dr. Silver herself; there is no “hand off” to support staff."

What does it cost?

Boulder Peak Health does not publish prices. No consultation fee, hormone therapy price or lab test cost is listed. It does not say whether it accepts insurance, whether medication is included in any price, or whether it offers memberships, financing or HSA payment. Ask for every figure in writing before you book, including the first consultation and any follow-up visits the consultation schedules.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs your prescription and which name will appear on it. Because some of the material calls the doctor Dr. Kiki Silver, confirm that you will be seeing the prescribing doctor.

Ask what the first consultation covers, and what follow-up visits and lab work cost. A consultation can end with a plan built on diet, fitness, supplements and specialty lab tests, so ask for a total before you agree to anything.

If hormones are recommended, ask whether they are compounded and which pharmacy fills them. Ask whether the monthly cost includes the medication, which form you would receive and how monitoring is billed. Finally, ask whether insurance is accepted and how cancellation works.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a visit with the prescribing doctor by phone, Skype or in person, you are considering bioidentical hormone therapy or lab testing as part of a wider work-up, and you will have the costs in writing before you commit. If another doctor already manages your hormones, take these questions to that doctor before you book.
