About Sunshine Health Care Center

What is Sunshine Health Care Center?

Sunshine Health Care Center is a naturopathic medical clinic in Glendale, Arizona, at 5620 West Thunderbird Road, open since 2010. The prescriber is Dr. Tiffany Mitchell, NMD. Weight loss and hormone therapy are two of several services offered here, alongside IV and chelation therapy, regenerative injection therapy, aesthetician services, acupuncture, botanical medicine and specialized lab testing, so this is a general naturopathic practice rather than a clinic built around one treatment.

The weight loss program is medically supervised HCG paired with calorie restriction. It includes an initial visit with an ECG, two physician follow-ups, a 40 day supply of HCG injectable medication with pre-filled syringes, six weeks of MIC and B-12 injections, and weekly check-ins with a medical assistant for measurements and diet diary review. The HCG arrives by mail and is brought into the office for reconstitution, where staff show patients how to self-administer it.

For hormone therapy, the clinic offers bio-identical testosterone replacement in capsules, gels, creams, patches or injections, along with hormone testing that can use saliva or urine instead of blood. Dr. Mitchell writes and speaks on andropause and testosterone balance, and treatment is described as tailored after a consultation and physical exam, with monthly blood work and exams while on a program. The clinic draws patients from across the West Valley, including Peoria, Sun City, Phoenix, Goodyear, Surprise and Avondale, in addition to Glendale itself.

What does it cost?

No prices are published for the HCG program, the testosterone therapy, or a standard office visit. The HCG program page lists what is included (the exam, ECG, physician follow-ups, 40 days of medication, injections, and weekly check-ins) but gives no dollar figure, and notes that Tru fiber, potassium supplements and an optional meal replacement shake cost extra and are not part of the program total. Whether insurance is accepted, and whether financing or membership terms exist, is not stated anywhere on the site. Call for a quote before assuming what a program or visit will run.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask what the HCG program costs in total, and what is billed separately beyond the supplements already flagged. Ask whether Dr. Mitchell or another licensed prescriber signs off on your specific treatment plan. For hormone therapy, ask whether a cream or injection would be compounded locally or filled as a brand product, since the clinic mentions working with a local apothecary for some formulations. Ask what the monthly blood work and physical exams cost once you are on a hormone program, since those are described as ongoing. And ask directly whether your insurance plan covers any part of the visit, testing, or labs, since that is not addressed on the website.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a naturopathic practice that treats weight loss and hormone balance as part of a broader menu of services, including IV therapy and acupuncture, rather than a single-purpose weight loss or hormone clinic. It is less suited to someone who wants published pricing up front and needs that information before calling.
