About PIONEER HEALTH

What is Pioneer Health?

Pioneer Health is mainly a compounding pharmacy, with a functional medicine practice alongside it. Gene Gresh founded it in 2002 as a compounding pharmacy. It is at 520 Hartford Turnpike #D in Vernon, CT 06066. Its services are compounding, functional medicine, nutrition, low dose naltrexone (LDN), the Gut Restoration System and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). Gene Gresh is listed as founder, with RPh, FAPC and IFMCP after his name. Michael Gresh is listed as Pharmacy Manager, with PharmD. It does not name a physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant who prescribes.

Hours are Monday to Wednesday 9am to 5pm, Thursday 9am to 7pm and Friday 9am to 3pm. Google lists it under Pharmacy, with a 4.5 rating from 35 reviews. In its own words: "Because we’re both a compounding pharmacy and functional medicine practice, we can work with clients to not only provide BHRT but also do hormone testing via functional lab work and help clients implement all other parts of the hormone health equation."

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices, for consultations, BHRT, LDN, the Gut Restoration System or any monthly fee. It does not say whether medication is included in a price, whether it bills insurance, how telehealth works, or what cancellation involves. Get each of these answers before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with who prescribes. Since no physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant is named, ask who evaluates you and who writes a BHRT or LDN prescription. Then ask whether the medication is compounded or a brand-name product, and whether it is part of any fee.

Next, ask about the hormone testing. The clinic describes it as functional lab work, so ask what the testing costs, who orders it and whether it is billed separately from the visit. Ask whether the clinic bills insurance at all, and whether any visit or lab is covered.

Finally, ask whether visits can be done remotely, what follow-up visits and refills cost, and how you cancel.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you already have a prescriber, or are ready to find one, and want a compounding pharmacy that also offers functional lab work, nutrition and the Gut Restoration System. If you need someone to see you and write the prescription, it is worth calling only after you have the answers above.
