About Inner Strength Health and Wellness

What is Inner Strength Health and Wellness?

Inner Strength Health and Wellness is a primary care practice with offices in Baldwin and Rice Lake, Wisconsin. In its own words: "We adopt both a traditional and functional medicine approach." Its services are direct primary care, holistic wellness including IV infusions, supplements, workplace wellness programs for employers, and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). Primary care is the center of the practice, and hormone therapy is one of six services.

No prescriber is named. Patient testimonials mention staff by first name, but they do not say who writes hormone prescriptions. Google lists the practice as a medical clinic with a rating of 5 from 4 reviews. Hours, telehealth options, and the area it serves are not published.

This listing is for its Rice Lake office at 1030 S Main St.

What does it cost?

Labs are $150 in cash, and the consultation is also $150. You have labs drawn first, then meet a week later to go over the results. The consult fee is waived for members, but membership prices and terms are not published.

It does not publish a price for the hormone treatment itself, and it does not say whether medication is included in any fee. Labs may be billed to insurance, but Inner Strength says the contracted rate and final cost to you are unknown to it and will be your responsibility with the lab company. It does not say whether it accepts insurance for visits. It has posted cancellation and refund policies, so read those before you pay.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes the hormone prescription and what license that person holds. Since no prescriber is named, get the answer in writing before your first visit. Ask whether the treatment price includes the medication, and whether the hormones are compounded or brand-name. Ask which pharmacy fills them. Compounded products can carry different pricing and terms, so you want the full picture before you pay.

Ask what follow-up costs over the first year, including repeat labs and whether each lab draw is another $150. Ask whether insurance is billed for visits or only for labs, and what the lab's rate is likely to be. If you are weighing membership, ask the monthly price, what it covers, and how to cancel. Ask whether telehealth is offered, which office you would be seen at, and what its hours are.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live near Baldwin or Rice Lake, want primary care and hormone therapy from one practice, and are comfortable paying cash for labs and a consult before you know the full treatment cost. If you need the treatment price and the prescriber's name before you call, ask those questions first.
