About Gurnee Andropause / Center for Internal Medicine

## What is this place? Gurnee Andropause, also known as Center for Internal Medicine, is a concierge-style hormone and wellness practice in Gurnee, Illinois, run by Dr. Paul C. Tack, M.D. The practice combines testosterone and hormone therapy, GLP-1 weight-loss injections, and a concierge membership that bundles in perks like same- or next-day virtual visits and monthly B-12 shots. It's built for patients who want ongoing, membership-based access to one physician rather than a one-off visit.

## What treatments and medications does it offer? For men, the practice offers testosterone replacement therapy; for women, estrogen and androgen therapy along with BHRT for menopause. DHEA and pregnenolone are also used. On the weight-loss side, it names its GLP-1 medications directly: semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy), tirzepatide (Mounjaro), oral semaglutide (Rybelsus), and liraglutide (Victoza, Saxenda). Beyond hormones and weight loss, the concierge tier adds IV vitamin therapy, laser hair removal, Morpheus8 skin treatments, a body-composition scan, and virtual telehealth visits over Zoom or similar.

## What does concierge membership cost? The site confirms a membership fee exists — describing it only as "a reasonable annual or monthly fee" — but never states a dollar amount anywhere. No consultation fee is published either.

## Does it take insurance, and is telehealth available? The practice frames itself as insurance-optional: "Insurance is not required to access our wellness services, as many of our offerings can be paid for out-of-pocket" is the only insurance-related statement published, with no list of accepted carriers if you'd rather use insurance. Virtual telehealth visits are offered, but only as a concierge-membership perk, and the site never states which states those visits can legally serve.

## Hours and location The office is at 501 N Riverside Dr #216 B in Gurnee, Illinois. Hours are Monday and Wednesday 11am–7pm, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday 8am–3pm, closed weekends. The site describes Dr. Tack's tenure inconsistently — anywhere from 15 to over 25 years depending on which page you read — so treat any specific number with some skepticism.
