About South Suburban Family Medicine

What is South Suburban Family Medicine?

South Suburban Family Medicine is a family medicine practice at 7720 S. Broadway, Suite 480, in Littleton, Colorado. Its core work is primary care, with medical weight loss, hormone therapy, anti-aging care and heart health alongside it. Jeffry Gerber, MD, leads the bioidentical hormone and anti-aging services. Jessica Crowe, FNP, is a family nurse practitioner who works on hormone care, including hormone pellet therapy. Dr. Gerber has been providing personalized healthcare since 1990.

The weight loss service offers GLP-1 medications, including Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound, along with compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide. These are prescribed in select patients and paired with nutrition counseling built around low-carb, whole-food eating. Hormone services include bioidentical hormone replacement for men and women, pellet therapy and testosterone replacement therapy. Virtual Health Consults and eConsults are also offered. The office is open Monday through Friday, 7:30am to 4:30pm, and the phone number is 303-346-9490. It has a 4.3 rating on Google from 181 reviews.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. That covers visits, GLP-1 medications, pellets and testosterone therapy. The consultation fee is not stated either, and nothing says whether medication is included in any price. The practice accepts commercial insurance, Medicare and Medicaid. It also lists self-pay and direct pay, plus the group funded programs CrowdHealth and Medishare.

In its own words: "the results may vary from person to person." Keep that in mind when you weigh what a program costs against what you expect from it.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with who signs the prescription. Ask whether Dr. Gerber or Jessica Crowe, FNP, writes the GLP-1 prescription and how often you would see them. Ask whether the medication would be brand-name or compounded, since the practice offers both, and what makes the compounded version different. Ask whether the monthly fee includes the medication, whether the program has a set length or commitment, and what "prescribed in select patients" means in practice.

Ask what bloodwork, EKG and follow-up visits cost, since lab and heart testing are listed as services without prices. For pellet therapy, ask how often pellets are inserted and what each insertion costs. If you plan a virtual visit, ask whether it can lead to a prescription and which states it covers, because the practice does not name them. Finally, ask how cancellation works, whether any fees apply, and whether your insurance covers the weight loss visits or the medication.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a family doctor who also handles weight, hormones and aging, and you are comfortable with a plan built around low-carb, whole-food eating. It is a harder call if you need a written monthly price and a clear program length before you book, since neither is published.
