About Root Cause Integrative Medicine

What is Root Cause Integrative Medicine?

Root Cause Integrative Medicine is an integrative primary care practice at 1547 Midway Ave Suite B, Ammon, ID 83406, near Idaho Falls. Its owner and prescriber is Jordan Hale, PA-C. It combines functional medicine with conventional primary care, so most of the work is family medicine: annual physicals, well-child visits and sick visits. Its service list also includes hormone and alternative therapies, men's and women's health, chronic pain, digestive issues, food sensitivity testing, chronic fatigue and thyroid care.

Hormone therapy is one of those services, and the clinic describes it in more detail for men. In its own words: "hormone replacement therapy options to rebalance and revitalize your body's natural rhythms." It does not name the medications it uses. Its women's health section also mentions hormone replacement therapies, without saying which ones.

The clinic also offers Pulsewave Therapy, a sound-wave treatment for erectile dysfunction. It says it has treated patients since 2019 and serves people from several towns, including Idaho Falls, Rexburg, Pocatello, Blackfoot and Rigby. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. Google lists it as a medical clinic with a 4.8 rating from 171 reviews.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. That covers office visits, hormone therapy, testing and the Pulsewave treatment. It does not list a consultation fee, and it does not say whether medication is included in any cost. It accepts most major insurance policies, but it advises patients to call their insurer first to confirm that the services are covered. It does not say whether a self-pay rate exists, whether HSA cards are accepted, or whether financing or a membership plan is offered. Ask for every price in writing before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

In its own words: "our providers also can prescribe medications as necessary." Ask who signs a hormone prescription, and whether that is Jordan Hale, PA-C, or another provider. Ask which hormone medications are offered, whether they are brand-name or compounded, and what the total monthly cost is with the medication included. Ask whether hormone therapy is offered to women, since the clinic does not say so directly for that service.

Ask what the follow-up visits and lab work cost, and whether the testing for hormones, thyroid or food sensitivities is billed separately. Ask whether your insurer has confirmed coverage, and how to cancel if you stop treatment. The clinic does not say whether it offers telehealth, so ask that too. It does not name weight loss, peptide or longevity programs, so ask directly whether any of them are offered.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want one primary care office in Ammon that also handles hormone therapy, and you are willing to get prices and medication details in writing before you commit. It is a weaker fit if you need published prices, remote visits, or a named weight loss or peptide program, since none of those are listed.
