What does it cost?

It does not publish prices or a consultation fee. It also does not say whether its fees cover medication, whether it accepts insurance, or whether it offers payment plans or financing. Get each of those answers before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which doctor will prescribe your treatment and what credentials that doctor holds. Ask for the credentials of Dr. Ryder and Dr. Morrison as well, since none are stated. Ask which hormone medications are used, because the clinic names none. Ask whether any medication is brand-name or compounded, and who makes it.

Ask whether a monthly fee, if there is one, includes the medication or bills it separately. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost. It primarily uses blood (serum) testing for hormones and saliva testing for cortisol, so ask which tests you would need and what each one costs. Ask whether a telemedicine visit includes an exam or lab orders, since the clinic does not describe what those visits involve. Finally, ask how to cancel and what happens to your prescriptions. If weight loss is your goal, ask whether a weight loss medication program is offered, since the clinic names none.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you are looking for hormone care, PCOS care, cognitive health, or functional medicine, you are prepared to pay out of pocket, and you want prices and prescriber details in writing before you book. If weight loss is your main goal, call first, since no weight loss medication program is named.
