About Urology Specialists of Austin

What is Urology Specialists of Austin?

Urology Specialists of Austin is a urology practice that treats men and women. Most of its work is urologic care, including bladder and incontinence care, prostate health, erectile dysfunction, male fertility and vasectomy. Hormone treatment is one of its services, alongside low testosterone care and perimenopause and menopause care. It has offices in Round Rock, Austin and Dripping Springs, with two in Austin, at Lakeline and South Austin. The phone number for all of its offices is (512) 238-0762.

The team lists fourteen prescribers: five with MD and nine with APRN, FNP, DNP or PA-C credentials. Among them are Sandeep Mistry, MD, MPH, MBA, and Marcia O'Brien, DNP, APRN, FNP-C. The practice describes its hormone work this way. In its own words: "One of the ways we do this is with hormone treatment and optimization for women using bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, or BHRT." It has a 4.9 rating on Google from 190 reviews and is listed there as a urology clinic.

This listing is for its Round Rock office at 970 Hester's Crossing Road Suite 101.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices, consultation fees or membership terms. It does not say whether it accepts insurance, and it does not say whether hormone medication is part of any fee. Before you book, ask for the cost of the first visit and each follow-up in writing, along with the cost of lab work and medication.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which provider would write your hormone prescription, and whether that provider is a physician or an advanced practice clinician. Marcia O'Brien, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, answers common questions about hormone replacement therapy in one of the practice's videos, which is a reasonable place to start, but still ask who will prescribe for you. Ask whether the hormone is brand-name or compounded, and what it is, since the practice does not name its hormone medications. Ask whether any price includes the medication, lab work and follow-up visits, and whether the consultation is billed to insurance. Ask whether follow-up visits can be done by video, since telehealth is not mentioned, and what the office hours are, since none are listed. Finally, ask how to cancel or pause care and whether cancelling carries a fee.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want hormone treatment from a practice that also handles urologic care, such as bladder, prostate or sexual health, and you are comfortable asking for prices before you book. It is not the listing for medical weight loss, peptide therapy or longevity medicine, since it does not name those services.
