About Physicians Med Spa

What is Physicians Med Spa?

Physicians Med Spa is a cosmetic med spa at 232 Boston Post Road, ALDI Plaza, Suite 14, Milford, CT 06460. The phone number is (203) 301-8228. It has been in the same place since 2006 and calls itself a family-owned and operated aesthetics practice. Most of its work is cosmetic: Botox, fillers, laser hair removal, tattoo removal, hair restoration and facials. Weight loss and hormone care are listed under a "Wellness" heading alongside vaginal rejuvenation and nutrition and fitness.

The weight loss program is called Medication Assisted Weight Loss, and the clinic names GLP-1 medications as the drugs it uses. The hormone services are Hormone Health & Balance and Hormone Pellet Therapy. The pellet service is bioidentical hormone therapy, with pellets placed under the skin, and the clinic also names EVEXIAS as a partner. No prescriber is named. Its staff are listed at LMA, LPN, RN and MD levels of training, and it offers nutrition counseling with what it calls a certified nutritionist, but it does not say which person writes prescriptions. It is open Tuesday through Saturday, with Thursday hours until 8PM. Google lists it at 4.9 from 279 reviews.

What does it cost?

The clinic does not publish prices for weight loss or hormone therapy, and no consultation fee is stated. It links to a full price list, but it prints no figures for either service, so get that list in writing before you book. Nothing says whether medication is included in any program price.

It lists all payment methods as acceptable and names CareCredit, Cherry and Vagaro PayLater. It does not say it bills insurance for medical visits. Its membership terms state there is no minimum to join, but discounts come with a commitment. In its own words: "you must maintain your membership for at least four months."

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes the prescription and whether that person is a physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant. Ask whether the monthly fee includes the medication or bills it separately. Ask whether the GLP-1 product is brand-name or compounded, and why it is prescribed for weight loss, since the clinic describes its injection treatments as originally created for adults with type 2 diabetes. Ask whether the hormone pellets are FDA-patented or custom-compounded, because the clinic uses both descriptions.

Ask what the consultation, blood panel, follow-up visits and pellet placement cost, and how often each is needed. Ask whether HSA or FSA cards are accepted and whether telehealth visits are offered, since neither is stated. Ask how to cancel a membership and whether the four-month requirement applies to every service.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want aesthetic treatments and weight loss or hormone care in one place, and you will get the prescriber, the medication and the total monthly cost in writing before you pay. It is a weaker fit if you need insurance billing or want a clinic whose main business is medical care.
