About Center For Youthful Aging

What is Center For Youthful Aging?

Center For Youthful Aging is a hormone replacement therapy clinic at 1250 S. Tamiami Trail, Suite 401, Sarasota, FL 34239. It is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM and closed on weekends. The phone number is (877) 620-5910. Thomas Arne, Jr., DO, FACC, leads the team and is the prescriber. The clinic describes him as an internist and a board-certified cardiologist who is also an assistant clinical professor at Florida State University's College of Medicine. Its Google listing shows a rating of 5 from 31 reviews.

Hormone therapy is the main work here. The clinic names one medication, BioTe® bioidentical hormones, delivered as pellets placed under the skin during an office visit. In its own words: "Dr. Arne specifically uses BioTe® bioidentical hormones for treatment and often recommends nutraceuticals." Its services are bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, hormone optimization, pellet therapy for women and for men, BHRT for men, hormone imbalance care for women and for men, and weight loss. Weight loss care starts with a blood test of hormone levels, followed by hormone pellets for hormone-related weight gain.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices, a consultation fee, or whether it accepts insurance, and it does not say whether telehealth is offered. Its process includes a consultation, hormone testing and lab work, a results visit, and pellet insertion, but none of those steps has a price listed. Call before you book and ask for the full cost from the first visit through follow-up.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs the prescription. The clinic describes a first consultation with a local Biote Certified Provider, so ask whether that is Dr. Arne or someone else. Ask whether the pellets are the BioTe brand or custom-compounded hormones, since its female pellets are custom-compounded. The clinic names no GLP-1 or injectable weight loss medication, so ask what the weight loss program actually prescribes.

Then ask whether lab work and follow-up visits are included in any price, how often pellets are reinserted and what each insertion costs, whether the clinic accepts insurance, HSA funds, or financing, and how you cancel or stop treatment.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want hormone therapy or hormone-based weight loss care in Sarasota, you expect to pay out of pocket, and you are comfortable asking about cost and prescribing before you commit. It is a harder fit if you need a published price list or care outside Sarasota, since the clinic publishes neither.
