About Turning Point Wellness

What is Turning Point Wellness?

Turning Point Wellness is a practice that mainly offers medical weight loss, with hormone replacement therapy and non-opioid pain management as its other main services. It is in Lutz, FL, and its listed street address is 16703 Early Riser Ave, Land O Lakes, FL 34638. The phone number is (727) 698-5989. It is open 9 am to 5 pm, Monday through Friday, by appointment only.

Its weight loss program uses semaglutide injections and naltrexone pellets, along with dietary counseling, exercise guidance and ongoing support. In its own words: "Supervised by healthcare professionals, combining diet, exercise and lifestyle changes for safe and effective long-term weight management."

Hormone care covers men and women and uses bioidentical hormones. Non-opioid pain care uses injection therapy and Radio Frequency Ablation for joint and muscle pain. The two people named as prescribers are J. David Barr, PA-C, and Dr. Thomas Riney Jr., who is listed as medical director. The practice points to nearly two decades of expertise in primary care, emergency medicine pain management and psychiatric medicine. On Google it has a 5 rating from 9 reviews.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices, and it does not say whether medication is included in any fee. The consultation is listed as complimentary. Joint and muscle pain injections and Radio Frequency Ablation are described as covered by Medicare and most insurance plans. It does not say whether insurance applies to weight loss or hormone care. It does not mention telehealth, financing or membership terms.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with who writes the prescription for semaglutide or naltrexone pellets, and whether that same person will follow your progress. Ask whether any monthly fee includes the medication or bills it separately. Ask which pharmacy supplies it and whether it is brand-name or compounded. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, since none are priced. Ask how cancellation works, whether you must commit to a set number of months, and what happens to unused months if you stop partway through. Ask whether any part of weight loss or hormone care is covered by your insurance. Because visits are by appointment only, ask whether any part of the first visit can be done by video.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want medical weight loss using semaglutide injections or naltrexone pellets, or hormone replacement therapy, and you are willing to get the answers above in writing before you pay. It is a weaker fit if you are looking for peptide or longevity medicine, since the clinic does not name either.
