Alpha Refinery
Verified listingAbout Alpha Refinery
## What is this place? Alpha Refinery is a men's and women's performance and longevity clinic in Hinsdale, Illinois, built around an in-depth diagnostic assessment rather than a straightforward prescription visit. Medical Director Wesley Nahm, MD, and Clinical Director Brad Simmons, FNP-BC, lead the clinical side, with Lisa Bakken directing an in-house lab. Everything here is cash-pay — the site says plainly that insurance isn't billed.
## What does the core assessment cost? The Alpha Assessment is a 90-minute private evaluation priced at $497 total: a $100 deposit to book, with the remaining $397 due after your consultation. It includes a battery of blood biomarkers (the site states both "150+ Clinical Markers" and "61 blood biomarkers" in different places, so the exact count isn't fully consistent), a body-composition analysis, and a private clinical consultation with a provider. You can add an at-home sleep study for another $297, bringing the combined total to $794. This assessment functions as the clinic's entry point and its consultation fee rolled into one — there's no separate, smaller consult visit offered.
## What treatments does it offer? Beyond the initial assessment, Alpha Refinery covers hormonal optimization, women's hormone therapy, sexual health, longevity and prevention, peptide and IV therapy, and hair restoration including PRP. One caveat worth knowing: the clinic's weight-loss and GLP-1 page is linked from the site's own navigation but currently returns a broken "page not found" error, so no details on that specific program — medication, price, or otherwise — are available on the site right now. The peptide-therapy page is also unusually candid rather than promotional: it names no specific peptides at all, and instead runs through disclaimers that peptides are prescription medicine (not supplements), that most aren't FDA-approved, and that the evidence behind them varies.
## Is telehealth available? No. Alpha Refinery states that the assessment must happen in person, since it requires an in-office blood draw, on-site lab processing, a body-composition scan, and a grip-strength test.
## Hours and location The clinic is at 12 Salt Creek Lane, Suite 350, in Hinsdale, Illinois (the site doesn't publish a ZIP code alongside the address). Hours run Monday, Thursday, and Friday 9am–5pm, with an early Tuesday from 7am–3pm and a late Wednesday from 11am–7pm; closed weekends. The site doesn't state a specific service area or how long Alpha Refinery has been operating.
