This listing is for its Des Moines office at 5005 Douglas Ave Ste 104.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices, and it lists no consultation fee. It also does not say whether any price includes medication, whether it accepts insurance, or whether it offers HSA use or financing. Home injections for male hormones are offered, but there is no word on whether they cost more than an office visit. Labs are drawn in the office, but no lab price is given. Ask for the cost of your first visit, your follow-up visits and your labs before you commit to anything.
What should you ask before you book?
Start with who writes the prescription. Ask whether Nathan Skeries, ARNP, will be your prescriber for your whole course of care and who covers when he is unavailable. Then ask whether the medication is included in any monthly fee, and whether the testosterone or GLP-1 medication is brand-name or compounded. The clinic names the GLP-1 class but not the specific medication it prescribes, so ask which one it uses.
Ask what follow-up visits and repeat labs cost, and whether check-ins can be done by telehealth, which the clinic does not address. The contact page mentions peptides among the topics it handles, but no peptide service is described, so ask what that involves and what it costs. Finally, ask how cancellation works and whether there is a membership term or contract.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want hormone care, thyroid management or Botox in the Des Moines area, or male hormone care that can be given at home, and you are willing to call for prices before booking. If you need a published price list, telehealth or a clear membership structure, you will have to ask for those details directly.
