About Tutera Medical
What is Tutera Medical?
Tutera Medical is a hormone and weight-loss practice with offices in Chandler, Glendale, Scottsdale, and Page, Arizona. It offers a physician-supervised medical weight-loss program built around an injectable medication, along with TRT injections, SottoPelle hormone pellet therapy for men and women, transgender hormone therapy, peptide therapy, IV therapy, NAD+, and treatment for urinary incontinence. The practice is associated with Dr. Gino Tutera, MD, FACOG, described as the developer of the SottoPelle pellet method, though no specific prescriber is named for the weight-loss injections. Its hormone pellet program centers on pellets inserted under the skin that release hormones gradually over three to six months rather than daily pills or patches. The weight-loss medication is described as compounded and prepared by a state-licensed pharmacy, given as a once-weekly injection mixed with vitamin B12, with patients generally taught to self-administer at home.
This listing is for its Scottsdale office at 8412 E Shea Blvd Ste 101.
What does it cost?
The only published price is $149 a month for the TRT program. It does not say whether that figure includes the medication itself or only covers monitoring and visit fees. No price is listed for the weight-loss injections, pellet therapy, peptide therapy, IV therapy, or NAD+, and nothing is said about a consultation fee, insurance acceptance, financing, or how membership or cancellation works. If a price matters to your decision, ask for it directly before you book anything.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who actually signs your prescription and what their license and specialty are, since the hormone pellet history centers on one physician but does not name the provider you would see at your local office. Ask whether the $149 TRT fee includes the medication or is a program fee on top of pharmacy costs. For the weight-loss injection, ask whether the compounded medication is the same active ingredient as a brand-name drug or a different formulation, since it describes the ingredients as "FDA-approved" but compounded rather than sold as a brand product. In its own words: "At Tutera Medical, we offer a physician-supervised medical weight-loss program using a proven, FDA-approved injectable medication that works with your body's hormones to help you lose weight and keep it off." Ask what lab work costs and how often it is required, what a follow-up visit costs, whether telehealth is an option if you cannot get to one of the locations, and how to cancel if the program is not working for you. If you are considering the Page location, confirm its limited one-day-a-month schedule works with your needs.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a Phoenix-area clinic built around menopause, andropause, and hormone pellet therapy, with several locations rather than a single office. It is worth a closer look, with the questions above answered first, if you are weighing the weight-loss injection program and want clarity on what the medication actually is, who prescribes it, and what the $149 figure or any other monthly cost truly covers before you commit.
