About Hester Family Care
What is Hester Family Care?
Hester Family Care is a family medicine practice at 1 W Park Ave in Eustis, Florida 32726, on the corner of Bay Street and Park Avenue. Family medical care is its main work, and it also runs a weight loss center. It lists two services: family medicine and bariatric weight loss.
Prescribers are Keith R. Hester, PA-C, and Joseph Risko, DO. Keith took bariatric medicine courses in California in 2007 and has taken follow-up courses every year since. In its own words: "Patients come in once a week for a quick visit to include a weigh-in, vitals, and injections to help with weight loss." The program uses a Biospace 520 body analysis to build each plan. It is open Monday to Thursday, 7am to 5:30pm, with a lunch closure from 12 to 1:00pm, and closed Friday through Sunday. Google lists it as a medical clinic with a 5 rating from 8 reviews.
What does it cost?
The first visit costs $165. That covers an extended visit with Keith to explain the whole program, a physical exam, initial labs and an ECG. After that, the weekly visits cost $40 a week for three weeks, and the monthly follow-up visit with Keith costs $100. A monthly body analysis costs $10. If medication is needed for appetite, it runs $20 to $40 a month, and the clinic has arranged discounted rates with a local pharmacy.
It does not publish whether the weekly injections are included in the weekly fee. It does not publish whether it accepts insurance, or any cancellation or commitment terms.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask whether the $40 weekly charge includes the injections or whether medication is billed on top of it. The clinic does not name the injection, so ask what it is, and whether it is brand-name or compounded.
Ask who signs your prescription, Keith R. Hester, PA-C, or Joseph Risko, DO.
Ask what labs and testing cost after the first visit, since the $165 covers initial labs and an ECG only.
Ask whether insurance is accepted. It does not publish that.
Ask how cancellation works, and whether you must finish the three weeks or stay for a set number of months.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a family practice in Eustis that also runs a weekly weigh-in and injection program on published fees, and you are willing to ask about medication, insurance and cancellation before you pay.
