What is The Longevity Doctor®?
The Longevity Doctor® is a physician-run practice at 2810 Wakefield Pines Drive, suite 115, in Raleigh, North Carolina. Octavian M. Belcea, MD, is the prescriber, and the practice describes him as a board-certified family physician specializing in longevity. Its main focus is hormone therapy for men and women. The practice names estradiol, micronized progesterone, pregnenolone and testosterone among its hormone treatments, and says it uses bioidentical options, with compounded formulas when needed. It also lists ProLon®, a fasting-mimicking diet program, metformin, and low-dose ketamine IV infusion therapy.
Online consultations are offered. In its own words: "Through online consultations, he makes longevity care more accessible, extending his expertise beyond his local practice to reach patients wherever they are." The hormone information lists topical, injection, oral and pellet as possible routes. Its Google listing shows a 5 rating from a single review.

What does it cost?
It does not publish prices. No consultation fee is listed, and it does not say whether it accepts insurance or whether medication is part of any fee. Settle those points first, because they decide what you will actually pay.
The way in is the Book a Consultation button or a call to the office. Before you agree to anything, ask for the cost of the first visit, the lab work, and the first prescription, each as its own number.
What should you ask before you book?
Who will I see at my visit, and who signs the prescription? Dr. Belcea is the named prescriber, so confirm whether he will see you or someone else. Does a monthly fee include the medication, or is the drug billed separately? Is the hormone brand-name or compounded? Since the practice uses compounded formulas when needed, ask which one you would receive and which pharmacy fills it. Which route is offered, and does the price change between cream, injection, oral and pellet?
What do lab work and follow-up visits cost? Is there a membership or recurring fee, and how do you cancel? The practice does not list which states its online visits cover, so ask whether one is available where you live. It also does not list office hours, so ask when the office is open.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want hormone therapy, metformin or ketamine from one physician, you expect to pay out of pocket, and you are willing to get the answers above in writing before you book. If you came for a GLP-1 weight loss program, note that the practice does not name one.
