About Urology of Indiana

What is Urology of Indiana?

Urology of Indiana is a urology practice with offices in Greenwood, Carmel and Fishers, Indiana. It is an affiliate of U.S. Urology Partners and says it has provided urologic care for over 130 years. Most of what it does is urology: general urology, men's health, women's health and urogynecology, cancer care, vasectomy, overactive bladder and enlarged prostate treatment.

Hormone therapy is offered through its Center For Menopause, which it describes as a newer service line. Hormone care there is provided by Kim Bryant, ANP-BC, MSCP, a nurse practitioner. No physician is named for hormone therapy. The Center lists hormonal therapies (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and DHEA, taken by mouth, through the skin, or vaginally), nonhormonal therapies, MonaLisa Touch vaginal laser therapy, the Emsella pelvic floor chair, bone health evaluation, cardiometabolic screening and midlife weight management counseling. It says it addresses hot flashes, sleep, mood, vaginal dryness and bone health. It does not name a medical weight loss program or any GLP-1 medication.

In its own words: "Together, you and your provider will create a tailored care plan that may include lifestyle strategies, hormone or non-hormonal treatments and resources to support your pelvic and overall health."

The Center's line for appointments is 317-907-9155. The general appointment line is 877-362-2778.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices, a consultation fee, or whether medication is included in any price. It says it accepts most major insurance plans, so the care it describes is billed through insurance. It does not describe a cash-pay option, a membership, financing or HSA use. If you are paying out of pocket, ask for the full cost before your first visit.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes the hormone prescription and whether a physician is involved in those decisions. The only prescriber named for hormone therapy is the nurse practitioner. Ask which hormone medications are used and whether they are brand-name or compounded, since the clinic does not say. Ask whether the MonaLisa Touch laser and the Emsella chair are covered by your plan or charged to you, and what each costs. Ask about the first visit fee, lab work, bone and heart screening, and follow-up visits. Ask whether a telehealth visit is possible, since that is not stated. Finally, ask how refills work and how to cancel any ongoing arrangement.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want menopause care inside a urology practice, you are comfortable with a nurse practitioner as the hormone prescriber, and you plan to run the visit through insurance. It is a weaker fit if you need a physician to prescribe hormones or want a published cash price before you call.
