About Orange Blossom Women's Group

What is Orange Blossom Women's Group?

Orange Blossom Women's Group is a women's health practice first. Its main work is obstetrics and gynecology, including routine and high-risk pregnancy, well-woman exams, IUD placement, and perimenopause and menopause care. Reut Bardach, MD, FACOG, is the medical director. Alexa Wynn, MD, Jessica Eastwood, MD, and Ivelisse Ruiz, MD, are also listed as prescribers. The team includes nurse midwives and advanced nurse practitioners. Offices are in New Port Richey, Land O' Lakes and Clearwater, Florida, and the practice is a member of Privia Medical Group.

Hormone therapy, weight loss and peptides are all offered here. The hormone therapy uses BioTE pellets, and medications for hormone care include testosterone and estradiol. The weight loss program is described as medically supervised, with HCG and lipotropic injections available from licensed practitioners. Peptides are offered too, though the only description is a banner. In its own words: "Now Offering Peptides, Schedule your consultation." On Google, the practice has a 4.1 rating from 86 reviews.

This listing is for its Clearwater office at 3280 McMullen Booth Rd Suite 140.

What does it cost?

It publishes no prices for hormone therapy, weight loss or peptides, and it states no consultation fee. Nothing says whether medication is included in any price. It has a membership packages page, but that page gives no terms. It lists insurance plans it accepts, including Aetna, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Humana, Medicare and Medicaid, and it asks patients to call about plans not on the list. The list does not say which services those plans cover, so ask which visits, labs and injections would go through insurance and which you would pay for yourself.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs the prescription for each service, since no prescriber is named for weight loss or peptides. Ask whether a monthly or program fee includes the medication, and whether the hormone pellets, HCG, lipotropic injections and peptides are brand-name or compounded. The hormone pellets are described as custom-made, so that answer matters. Ask what the initial exam and blood tests cost, and what each follow-up visit costs, because hormone therapy involves several follow-up appointments and possible prescription changes. For peptides, ask which ones are offered and what each costs. Ask whether telehealth is available, since the practice does not say. Ask for office hours too. The practice mentions early-morning and late-evening appointments but gives no hours. Finally, ask how to cancel a program and whether any money is refunded.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want hormone, weight loss or peptide care from a practice whose main work is women's health and obstetrics, and you are ready to ask about prescribers and prices before you book. It may be a weaker fit if you need a published fee schedule before you pick up the phone.
