About Essential Health

What is Essential Health?

Essential Health is a practice at 950 S. Cherry St, Suite 350, in Denver, CO 80246. You can reach it at 303-437-5174. Its main work is hormone care and weight loss. Its listed services are bio-identical hormone therapy, weight loss, and a program called Whole Health. It also lists bio-identical hormone pellets, compounded creams, patches, troches, pills and GLP injections among its products. In its own words: "Welcome to Essential Health, a leader in bio-identical hormone replacement therapy and GLP-based weight loss solutions."

Two nurse practitioners prescribe at the practice. Margo Toms (NP-WH) has over 25 years of experience as a Nurse Practitioner, 14 of them in hormone replacement therapy. Kaitlyn Holderman (NP-FNP) is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of healthcare experience. Karen Koch is the patient care coordinator. She handles scheduling and prescription refill requests, and she is not a prescriber. Google lists the clinic as a Doctor with a 4.9 rating from 21 reviews.

What does it cost?

Essential Health does not publish prices for its hormone, weight loss or Whole Health care. It does not state a consultation fee, whether it accepts insurance, or whether a monthly fee would include the medication. The only price it lists is $20.00 for a CLA supplement sold in its online shop, which is a separate retail product. Before you book, ask for the full cost of a first visit, what a monthly plan costs, and what that plan covers.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which of the two nurse practitioners will prescribe for you and who you will see at follow-up visits. For the weight loss program, ask which GLP-1 medication is used, since the clinic does not name it, and whether it is a brand-name product or compounded. Ask the same about the compounded creams, pills and troches. Ask whether the monthly fee includes the medication or whether you pay for it separately. Find out what follow-up visits and lab work cost, whether telehealth visits are available, and how to cancel. The clinic also does not list its office hours, so ask when the office is open.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want hormone therapy or weight loss care from a nurse practitioner in Denver and you are ready to get prices and medication details in writing before you commit. If you need published prices, listed hours, or confirmation of insurance coverage before you call, phone the office first.
