About Premier Alternative Medicine
What is Premier Alternative Medicine?
Premier Alternative Medicine is a cash-pay practice at 14100 Walsingham Road, Unit 20, in Largo, Florida. Its phone number is 727-200-6891. Its staff specializes in hormone replacement therapy. In its own words: "Our experienced staff specializes in hormone replacement therapy."
The practice offers six services: hormone and testosterone replacement, sports medicine, thyroid health, anti-aging and vitality, medical weight loss, and sexual health. Medical weight loss is one of those six, not the whole practice. Online booking also includes a weight loss consultation and two lab panels, one for women and one for men.
Two people are named as prescribers. Dr. Charles Talakkottur has been practicing medicine since 2008. His training includes testosterone, weight loss and peptides, though peptide therapy is not among the services offered. No credential is given for him, so none is shown here. Kara Dragunas, PA, has been a certified Physician Assistant since 2018.
Google rates the clinic 3.9 from 16 reviews. First visits are done remotely. In its own words: "Right now, all of our initial visits are done remotely for safety."
What does it cost?
The Weight Loss Consultation is $100.00 for a 30-minute visit. The Female Lab Panel is $225.00 and the Male Lab Panel is $200.00, each listed as a 5-minute appointment. It does not publish prices for hormone therapy or weight loss medication, and it does not say whether medication is included in any fee. It does not say whether it accepts insurance. It does not mention HSA or financing, membership terms, or cancellation.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who writes the prescription. Dr. Talakkottur's years in practice are given, but no credentials beyond that, so ask what they are. Ask whether medication is included in the visit fee or billed separately, and whether it is brand-name or compounded. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost beyond the two listed panels, and whether an in-person visit is needed after the remote first visit.
Ask whether insurance is accepted at all, and how cancellation and refunds work. Ask for office hours, since none are published. The online contact form has a weekly submission limit and directs people to call, so the phone line is the practical way to get these answers.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want cash-pay care from a named prescriber for hormone or weight loss treatment, and you are willing to confirm medication pricing and cancellation terms by phone before you book.
