What is MFHS Circle of Care Scranton?
MFHS Circle of Care Scranton is the Scranton location of Maternal and Family Health Services, which has offices across Northeastern Pennsylvania, including Pottsville, Allentown and Bristol. Google lists it as a nonprofit organization and shows a 4.8 rating from 105 reviews.
The practice is mainly a health service for women, children and families. Its services are behavioral health, cancer screening, dental care, Nurse-Family Partnership home visits for new mothers, pregnancy care, reproductive health and WIC nutrition support. Hormone treatment falls under its GYN care and reproductive health services, and it is available at the Scranton location only.
Lori Bonafede, CRNP is the only prescriber named for hormone care. In its own words: "If you are experiencing hormone-related concerns, Lori Bonafede, CRNP offers hormone evaluation and treatment services at MFHS Circle of Care in Scranton."
The hormone service covers women of all ages with PCOS, perimenopause, menopausal symptoms or other hormonal imbalances. It includes lab testing of hormone levels and treatment based on results and symptoms. Hormone replacement therapy, bioidentical HRT, birth control options and non-hormonal therapies are all listed as options. It also lists basic infertility evaluation and hypothyroidism care, which can involve pharmaceutical or compounded medication.
This listing is for its Lake Ariel office at 543 Easton Turnpike.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices. Cost may vary depending on age, income or insurance status, and callers are directed to the Care Navigators to discuss eligibility. It does not say whether a consultation fee applies, whether medication is included, or whether it accepts insurance. Call 570-273-1288 before you book and ask for the full price of the first visit, the lab work and ongoing treatment.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who signs the prescription and who handles follow-up visits, since Lori Bonafede, CRNP is the only prescriber named. Ask whether any monthly fee includes the medication, and whether the drug is brand-name or compounded. Ask what the hormone lab tests cost and whether they are billed apart from the visit. Ask about follow-up costs, whether the clinic accepts your insurance, and how cancellation works. Ask whether hormone visits can be done by phone. One MFHS office describes telehealth visits, but this location does not say whether it offers them.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you are a woman looking for hormone evaluation and treatment in Scranton, and you are willing to get price and insurance answers from the Care Navigators before you book. It is not the right place for weight loss, peptide or longevity medicine, since the clinic does not list those services.
