About Optimal Health Miami

What is Optimal Health Miami?

Optimal Health Miami is a hormone and sexual medicine practice at 2801 NE 213th Street, Suite #1112, in Aventura. It's led by Marc Gittelman, MD, FACS, a board certified urologist, and lists Amy Gittelman, MS, as a nurse practitioner. In its own words, Dr. Gittelman "provides bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) for women, testosterone therapy for men, and explores the full options for sexual medicine for men and women." He has more than 20 years of experience and has worked on clinical trials for sexual health medications.

Its main focus is sexual medicine and hormones for men and women: erectile dysfunction, low testosterone, menopause symptoms, bioidentical hormones and pellet therapy. It also offers peptide therapy, GLP-1s and a medically supervised weight loss program that starts with a whole-body DEXA scan to measure fat and muscle. That program can include lifestyle changes, weight loss medication, peptide therapy, vitamin injections, hormone therapy and exercise programs. It also offers shockwave therapy and IV therapy. Hours are Monday to Thursday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. It's closed on weekends.

What does it cost?

It doesn't publish prices for hormone therapy, pellets, peptides or weight loss treatment. It offers a free confidential consultation. It doesn't say whether it takes insurance, HSA cards or financing. Ask what the DEXA scan and starting lab work cost, and what a month of treatment costs after that.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask whether you'd see Dr. Gittelman or the nurse practitioner for follow-ups, and who writes your prescriptions. For weight loss, ask which GLP-1 medication it uses, whether it's brand-name or compounded, and whether the monthly price includes it. For hormones, ask which forms it offers, which labs come first and how often they're repeated. Ask whether any part of your care can be billed to insurance, and whether follow-ups can be done by phone or video.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live near Aventura and want hormone therapy or sexual medicine from a urologist's practice, with weight loss care and body composition scans in the same office.
