What does it cost?

The weight loss membership starts with a $75 consultation, applied toward membership if you go ahead. Semaglutide is $229 a month billed monthly (first month $199), $199 a month on a 3-month plan billed $597 every three months, or $149 a month on a 6-month plan billed $894 every six months. Tirzepatide is $309 a month month-to-month (first month $259), $299 a month on the 3-month plan, or $249 a month on the 6-month plan. A microdosing plan lists $149 a month for semaglutide and $249 a month for tirzepatide, at provider discretion.

Hormone therapy has a female membership at $100 a month, which covers follow-up visits and routine hormone lab work. Medications are billed separately, with listed prices from $60 to $200. A female hormone consultation and labs is listed at $280. Peptide therapy is listed from $300, and its page shows an initial consult fee of $280 beside $300. It does not publish a per-vial price for sermorelin. Its peptide page lists a 3-month minimum treatment and includes IGF-1 monitoring at baseline and 6 months.

IV memberships run $99, $199 or $399 a month, each with a 3-month minimum and cancel anytime after. It does not publish cancellation terms for the weight loss or hormone plans. It does not say whether it bills insurance, offers telehealth or lists hours.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask whether it bills insurance, since it does not say. Ask whether the monthly fee covers medication beyond the one-month supply its membership lists. Ask whether semaglutide and tirzepatide are brand-name or compounded, and who signs the prescription each month. Ask what follow-up visits and labs cost outside the membership, and how a weight loss plan is canceled. Ask which peptide consult fee applies, $280 or $300, and what sermorelin costs per vial. Ask for the street address of the office you would visit, its hours, and whether telehealth is available.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want weight loss, hormone or peptide care alongside IV and aesthetic services in one practice, and you are willing to get the answers above in writing before you pay. It is worth calling if you want to know which prescriber you would see and what a full month of care costs.
