About Element Wellness Center

What is Element Wellness Center?

Element Wellness Center is a wellness and recovery clinic at 6600 Tattersall Lane in Birmingham, Alabama. In its own words: "Element Wellness Center offers wellness and recovery services, including massage therapy, red light therapy, infrared sauna, IV vitamin infusions, nutritional guidance, and medically supervised weight-loss programs." Its service list also includes intramuscular injections. Weight loss is one service among several, and Google lists the business as a wellness center with a 5 rating from 46 reviews.

The weight-loss program uses two prescription medications, semaglutide and tirzepatide. Three people are named as prescribers: Brooke Carter (CRNP), Maddie Bates (RN), and Dr. Lee Goldenberg. No credential is given for Dr. Goldenberg. The clinic is open by appointment only, and the office is closed on Fridays. The phone number is 205-326-7333.

What does it cost?

The weight-loss program starts at $497 for the initial evaluation. That fee covers the consultation, medical history review, brief health exam, weigh-in, program setup, and the first semaglutide or tirzepatide prescription and dose. The clinic does not say whether medication is included after that, and it does not publish a monthly price for either medication. It does not publish a separate consultation fee.

IV infusions run $137 to $177 each. Packages of five cost $700, and packages of ten cost $1200. Single vitamin B12 injections are $25, MICC lipotrophic injections are $30 each, and vitamin D injections are $40 each. Members get special pricing, but membership costs and cancellation terms are not published. It does not say whether insurance is accepted, and it does not say whether telehealth is offered.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with the prescriber. Ask which of the three named people will sign your prescription and what credential each one holds. Then ask whether the $497 includes the medication, and what semaglutide or tirzepatide will cost each month after the first visit. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded, since that changes what you are paying for.

Next, ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, and whether they are billed separately. Ask whether an HSA or financing can be used, and whether insurance is accepted at all. Ask how membership works, whether it renews automatically, and how you cancel. The weight-loss booking form is an appointment request that the office confirms, so ask when your visit is confirmed. Tuesday hours are also worth confirming when you call.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a cash-pay weight-loss program with a named prescriber, and you are willing to ask about the ongoing medication price before you commit. It is a weaker fit if you need a published monthly price, insurance billing, or telehealth before you book.
