What is Colorectal Surgery Clinic of Tampa Bay?
Colorectal Surgery Clinic of Tampa Bay is a surgical practice at 1305 South Ft Harrison Ave, Bldg A, Clearwater, FL 33756. Its main work is colorectal and general surgery, including colon cancer, colonoscopy, hemorrhoids, Crohn's disease, inflammatory bowel disease, constipation and fecal or urinary incontinence. Hormone replacement therapy and IV hydration are also listed, along with Axonics Therapy, Medtronic InterStim and weight loss counseling and treatment options.
Lourdes T. Santiago, MD, is the only clinician the practice names. She is a board-certified general surgeon and fellowship-trained colorectal surgeon. The hormone page calls her the Biote Certified Provider who reviews lab results and builds each care plan.
The hormone program is described as bioidentical hormone replacement therapy using compounded hormones, and as the Biote Method, which places pellets about the size of a grain of rice under the skin during an in-office procedure. The clinic describes its first step this way: "you will fill out a simple health assessment and schedule bloodwork to evaluate your current hormone levels." The office is open 9:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday through Friday and closed on weekends. The phone number is (727) 483-9188.
What does it cost?
The practice does not publish prices for any service, including hormone therapy. It gives no consultation fee. It does not say whether insurance is accepted or whether hormone visits or pellets are covered. Because no fee is listed, nothing says whether a price includes the medication. Before you book, call (727) 483-9188 and ask for the full cost of your first visit, the bloodwork, the hormones or pellets, and each follow-up.
What should you ask before you book?
Start with the prescriber. Ask whether Dr. Santiago writes and signs your hormone prescription herself, or whether another clinician does. Ask which hormones your plan would use, and whether they are compounded or brand-name products. Ask whether the price you are quoted includes the medication or pellets, and what the repeat bloodwork costs.
Then ask about the rest. The practice does not say whether any follow-up can be done by video, so ask. Ask how and when you can cancel, and whether any refund applies if you stop partway through. The listing names weight loss counseling without describing it, so ask what it involves, whether it includes any medication, and what it costs. Last, confirm you are booking the Clearwater office at 1305 South Ft Harrison Ave, since a Massachusetts address appears in some of the clinic's online text.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you already want colorectal or general surgical care in Clearwater and would like hormone care from the same practice, and you are comfortable getting the price by phone before you commit. It may not fit if you need published prices, a described weight loss plan, or a peptide or longevity program, since none of those are described.
