About Natural Health Direct Primary Care

What is Natural Health Direct Primary Care?

Natural Health Direct Primary Care, LLC is a direct primary care practice at 102 Industrial Drive in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. It opened on January 7, 2025, and Google lists it with a 5 rating from 3 reviews. It works mainly as a membership primary care clinic, and members pay in cash.

The two named prescribers are Whitney Cooley, PA-C, who opened the practice, and Dr. Chris Carls, D.O., whom the practice names as her collaborating physician. The practice describes Dr. Carls as an OB/GYN in the greater Indianapolis area.

Its services include preventive care, management of chronic conditions, acute visits for illness and injury, telemedicine with quick response times to questions, and functional and holistic medicine options. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is listed among its membership perks. In-office procedures include electrocardiograms, Pap smears, mole and lesion removal, laceration suturing or stapling, cryotherapy for warts, and rapid strep, flu and COVID testing. The practice does not list weight loss, GLP-1 or peptide services.

In its own words: "We use an integrative medicine approach (both, conventional and functional) so that we can discuss the various options available to you."

The practice is currently booked and says it will announce when it can accept new patients.

What does it cost?

Membership is paid monthly, and the practice does not take insurance. An individual adult pays $149 a month plus a one-time $100 registration fee. An individual and spouse pay $260 a month. A child on a parent's membership pays $40 a month, and a child on their own pays $60 a month with a $100 registration fee. One adult with one child comes to $189 a month. Family plans with more members vary by the number of members, and the registration fee for a family or a parent and child is $150. Without a membership, a one-hour visit costs $250, and a lab draw fee is $10.

The practice does not publish a price for hormone therapy. It does not say whether hormone medication is included in membership, and its membership prices cover primary care in general. Memberships may be cancelled at any time. The practice provides superbills for insurance reimbursement, and it says HSA or FSA funds may cover membership up to $150 a month or $300 per family, as well as prescribed medications.

What should you ask before you book?

Start by asking whether the practice is taking new patients and when it expects to. Then ask which prescriber handles hormone therapy, and what the first visit includes. The practice does not explain what hormone therapy involves or which hormones it prescribes, so ask that directly.

Ask whether the monthly fee covers the hormone medication or whether the medication is billed separately. Ask whether the prescription is brand-name or compounded, and which pharmacy fills it. Ask what follow-up visits and monitoring labs cost. Finally, ask how cancellation works and whether the $100 registration fee is refundable. The practice says memberships may be cancelled at any time, but it does not say what happens to the registration fee.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want cash-pay primary care in Lawrenceburg, can pay a monthly membership yourself, and want the hormone therapy price and medication terms in writing before you pay. It is not the right time if you need a new patient visit soon, since the practice is booked.
