About Aliva Balance

What is Aliva Balance?

Aliva Balance is a hormone and wellness clinic with offices in Paola and Louisburg, Kansas, and it also sees patients online across the state. Hormone therapy is its core service, and prescription weight loss is its other main program. The one prescriber it names is Crystal Renaud, APRN, FNP, whom the clinic describes as a board-certified family nurse practitioner who began her career in healthcare over 15 years ago. It has a 5 rating on Google from 12 reviews.

The clinic also offers wellness injections such as B12 and glutathione, IV therapy, lab testing and screening, and medical aesthetics such as Botox and chemical peels. Its weight loss program uses semaglutide, tirzepatide, and phentermine (Adipex-P). The semaglutide is compounded. It does not name a peptide program or a longevity program among its services, even though its mission talks about avoiding chronic disease.

What does it cost?

The initial consultation is $300, and that covers blood work and a full hormone visit. Monthly memberships for BHRT or TRT start at $200 a month for at-home or in-office administration of creams, pills, or injections. It does not say whether medication is included in that $200. Hormone pellets are listed at $400 per insertion for women and $600 per insertion for men, both including follow-up and labs.

It does not publish prices for its weight loss program, and it gives no consultation fee for weight loss. Ask for the full monthly cost before you book. On insurance, it says: In its own words: "At this time Aliva Balance does not take insurance for hormone replacement therapy." It does not state whether it takes insurance for weight loss. It does not publish cancellation terms for memberships, and its payment plan terms are not published either.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs each prescription and who you contact between visits. Ask whether the $200 monthly membership includes the medication or only the administration. Ask whether the semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded, which pharmacy fills them, and what each costs per month.

Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, and whether labs must be drawn in the office. Ask how a membership is cancelled and whether there is a minimum term. Ask whether your insurance covers the weight loss prescriptions, and what the clinic's offer to help after an insurance denial involves. Ask whether a Louisburg visit is required for phentermine, and how often. The main line is (913) 423-9196.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want hormone therapy or prescription weight loss from a nurse practitioner, plan to pay cash, and are comfortable with online visits as a Kansas resident or an in-office visit in Paola or Louisburg. It is a weaker match if you need insurance to cover the care or you want a peptide or longevity program by name.
