About Balanced Wellness PC

What is Balanced Wellness PC?

Balanced Wellness PC is an independent medical practice at 620 Norwich-New London Turnpike in Uncasville, Connecticut. The phone number is 860-892-8012. The practice traces back to 2013, when Kristin Mahan opened her own primary care practice in Uncasville. It was formerly known as Kristin Mahan APRN FNP LLC. The one prescriber named is Kristin Mahan, APRN, FNP, and primary care is the practice's main focus. Its Google listing shows a 4.8 rating from 452 reviews.

Of the four kinds of care this directory covers, the practice lists one: medical weight loss through its Center for Medical Weight Loss (CMWL) program. Each CMWL program is tailored to the individual patient by a provider. The program includes body composition analysis, provider-supervised food plans, appetite management, lifestyle and motivational coaching, and science-based activity recommendations. The practice does not list hormone therapy, peptide therapy or longevity care.

It also offers DOT physicals for commercial drivers, medical marijuana certificates for eligible Connecticut residents, women's health visits, and Botox, both medical and cosmetic. The office is open Monday through Thursday, 8AM to 4:30PM.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. No consultation fee, program fee or membership terms are listed, and it does not say whether it accepts insurance. It also does not say whether weight loss medication is included in the program price, whether a medication is prescribed at all, or which weight loss drugs it uses. Ask for the full cost in writing before you schedule anything.

What should you ask before you book?

Start by asking whether the practice is taking new patients for the weight loss program. The practice is unable to accept new primary care patients at this time, and it does not say whether that also applies to CMWL. Then ask whether Kristin Mahan, APRN, FNP, writes the prescriptions in the program, and whether the program price includes medication. If a medication is part of it, ask whether it is brand-name or compounded. Ask what follow-up visits, lab work and the body composition analysis cost, and whether telehealth is available, since the practice does not say.

The office does not fill refills on weekends or after hours, and it asks patients to call 48 to 72 hours before they run out. Ask how that works for a weight loss prescription. Finally, ask how to cancel and whether any fee applies.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want weight loss care from a nurse practitioner and the practice confirms it is taking new weight loss patients, or if you need a DOT physical as a commercial driver. If you are looking for a new primary care doctor, call first, because the practice is not accepting new primary care patients at this time.
