About Tideline Center for Health & Aesthetics

What is Tideline Center for Health & Aesthetics?

Tideline Center for Health & Aesthetics is a physician practice with offices in Manhasset and Garden City, New York. It names towns across Long Island, Queens and New York as places it serves. Four physicians are listed as its doctors: Toby F. Handler, FACS, MD; Carl Gerardi, FACS, MD; Sarah K. Girardi, FACS, MD; and Michele J. Powers, MD.

Hormone therapy is one of its services, not the whole practice. It offers bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, systemic and vaginal hormone therapy, testosterone replacement therapy, and Biote hormone therapy, given as pellets. The medications it names are estradiol and testosterone. It also lists treatments that are not hormonal, including erectile dysfunction care, platelet rich plasma, MonaLisa, ThermiVa, shockwave therapy and ThermiSmooth Face. It does not list weight loss, peptide or longevity services. Virtual consultations are offered, and the clinic has a 5-star Google rating from 26 reviews.

This listing is for its Manhasset office at 535 Plandome Rd #4.

What does it cost?

The only price it publishes is $300 for a 30-minute virtual consultation. It does not publish prices for hormone therapy or its other treatments, and those prices are shown as "Call for Pricing." It does not say whether the medication is included in any fee. No membership terms, financing terms or cancellation policy are stated.

On insurance, the clinic puts it this way: "There may be some instances where your insurance covers BHRT, but it’s typical to pay out-of-pocket for most or all of your costs." It does not say whether it accepts insurance.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which office a visit would be at, and whether a virtual consultation is available where you live, since no states for its telehealth are stated. Ask who writes the prescription, and whether it will be one of the four physicians named above. Ask whether the price includes the medication, and whether the hormone is brand-name or compounded. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, whether financing or a payment plan is available, and how cancellation works. Ask the office to check your insurance before you book, since most or all costs are typically paid out of pocket.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want hormone therapy or men's and women's health care from named physicians, you are open to a virtual consultation, and you are ready to pay cash for most of it. It is a weaker fit if you are looking for weight loss, peptide or longevity medicine, since none of those are listed as services.
