About Dr. Kristi Tompkins

What is Dr. Kristi Tompkins?

Dr. Kristi Tompkins is a women's health practice run by Dr. Kristi Tompkins, a licensed Naturopathic Medical Doctor who received her Naturopathic Medical Degree from Bastyr University in Seattle, Washington. She has been in practice for 15 years.

The practice is based in El Dorado Hills, California, but it does not publish a street address. It also sees patients by telehealth across the country. The services it names are functional medicine, peri/menopause care, hormone replacement therapy, HCG-based weight loss and transformative coaching. Dr. Kristi Tompkins prescribes HCG for weight loss, which the practice calls the HCG Diet Program. In its own words: "For all new patients, please choose the 60 minute New Patient Appointment Service for in person or phone appointment."

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices for any service. Its first step is a free consult, and its pages also describe a free, preliminary 20 minute Discovery Call. It names a New Client 6 Month Healing Program and a Women's ASCEND Program but gives no price for either. Its 2019 talks, presented with Innovative Compounding Pharmacy, cost $10 each or $25 for all three.

It does not say whether it bills insurance, and it does not say whether HCG or any hormone medication is included in a fee. It does not publish hours either.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes the prescription and where it gets filled. The HCG page says the drug is available by prescription from certain compounding pharmacies, and the 2019 talks were co-presented with Innovative Compounding Pharmacy. Ask whether the HCG is compounded, whether any hormone medication is too, and whether the practice has a working relationship with that pharmacy.

Ask whether the program fee includes the medication, and what lab tests and follow-up visits cost on top of it. Ask whether it bills insurance. Ask whether the free call leads straight into a paid program, and what the 6 Month Healing Program costs before you book the call. Ask how billing works and how to cancel. Finally, ask whether the HCG program still runs the way its pages describe, since the HCG and talk pages are dated 2019.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a naturopathic doctor for women's hormones, menopause or HCG-based weight loss, you are comfortable with telehealth, and you get the price, medication and insurance answers before you book.
