This listing is for its Davenport office at 4215 E 60th St.

What does it cost?

The initial consultation is $199, and the clinic books one hour for it. Before that visit, labs are ordered for you to complete at Quest Diagnostics or Labcorp, two weeks before the consult. You can bill those labs to insurance or pay cash, and no lab prices are published. The clinic does not take insurance for visits or scans. In its own words: "Because we want to spend time with you working towards your goals we do not take insurance for visits or scans." It accepts HSA and FSA cards and credit or debit cards, but not cash or checks.

It does not publish prices for weight management, hormone therapy, scans or service packages. It also does not say whether medication is included in any price. Weight management patients are seen every 4 weeks. Hormone patients are seen every 6 to 8 weeks until symptoms are well controlled, then about every 6 months. Extra appointments are available for an additional cost, with no price given.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask whether Kristin Everhart writes and signs every prescription, and whether the monthly fee covers the medication. Ask which GLP-1 medication you would be prescribed, and whether it is brand name or compounded, since it can compound when needed. Ask for the full cost of labs, scans and follow-up visits, and how cancellation works, because none of that is published. It does not publish office hours, so ask about those too.

If you live outside Davenport, ask whether your first consultation can be virtual. The clinic would like to see local patients in person for that first visit. Also ask how it coordinates with your primary care provider, since it is not a substitute for that care.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you are a woman in Iowa looking for hormone therapy or weight management, you can pay cash for visits and labs, and you want a nurse practitioner who handles both. Men can book weight management and body composition scans, but the clinic does not offer hormone therapy for men.
