What is Biomed Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Biomed Hormone Replacement Therapy is a physician-led practice at 106 Retreat Village, St. Simons Island, GA 31522. In its own words: "Biomed is located within the ERgent Med St. Simons Island location." It serves the Golden Isles and surrounding areas. Hormone replacement therapy is its lead service, and testosterone and estradiol are the medications it names. It also offers weight loss support, which includes GLP-1 peptide therapy for those who qualify, along with peptide therapy, longevity and wellness support, and a Styku 3D body scan for wellness. It is open Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, and the phone number is (912)506-5028. It has a Google rating of 5 from 5 reviews.

Elizabeth Fletcher, PA-C, is also a provider. She has been in practice for 15 years and earned her degree from the Medical College of Georgia.

What does it cost?

Three services have published prices, each charged per visit. A Hormone Consultation is $150 for one hour. A Follow-Up Visit is $100 for one hour. The longest visit, an assessment lasting an hour and a half, is $250. It does not say whether medication is included in any of these prices.

It does not publish prices for its hormone therapy program, its weight loss or GLP-1 treatment, or its peptide therapy. On insurance, it notes: "Some services provided by Biomed Hormone Replacement Therapy LLC may not be covered by health insurance, and payment is the patient's responsibility." It does not say whether insurance is accepted, and it does not mention financing, membership terms or cancellation terms.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who will write your prescriptions and whether Dr. Hamm or Elizabeth Fletcher will see you at each visit. Ask whether any program fee includes the medication, and whether the testosterone, estradiol or GLP-1 medication is brand-name or compounded. Ask what the lab work costs. A full consultation includes lab work, it says, but no price is given for it.

Ask how often follow-up visits are needed and what each one costs. Its terms say: "A formal relationship begins only after a completed evaluation and treatment plan approval by our licensed staff." So ask what that evaluation involves and how long it takes before you pay for a plan. Ask whether telehealth visits are offered, since it does not say. Finally, ask how a plan is cancelled or paused and whether the $150 consultation is credited if you go ahead.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live near St. Simons Island, want in-person hormone care from a physician or PA-C, and can pay out of pocket for visits and medication that insurance may not cover. It is worth calling before you book, so you know what the medication will cost.
