About Metabolic Medicine of Mississippi

What is Metabolic Medicine of Mississippi?

Metabolic Medicine of Mississippi is an endocrine and diabetes practice at 1551 E County Line Road in Jackson, MS 39211. The phone number is 601-790-1233. Its main work is metabolic disorders, including diabetes, thyroid conditions and hormone problems. Weight management and hormone replacement are two of the many services it lists, not the whole practice.

The prescribers named are Honey East, MD, FACP, who leads the practice; Christy L. Davis, DNP, FNP-C, CSOWM, CBN, a nurse practitioner whose background includes medical weight management; and Joanna M. Warren, CFNP, BC-ADM, CDE, a nurse practitioner who specializes in endocrinology care. The practice says it has more than 20 years of experience treating metabolic disorders. Its services include male and female hormone evaluation and replacement, low testosterone, menopause, weight management, type 2 diabetes, hypothyroidism, osteoporosis, blood pressure and cardiovascular risk, and cholesterol. No medications are named on its pages, and no hours are listed. Google lists the practice at 3.9 from 19 reviews, under the category Medical clinic.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. It does not publish a consultation fee, and it does not say whether medication is included in any program. It does not say whether it takes insurance, whether it offers telehealth, or what its membership terms and cancellation rules are. Before you book, call 601-790-1233 and ask for the cost of the first visit, the cost of follow-up visits, and the full cost of a weight management or hormone program, not only the monthly fee.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which of the named prescribers will sign your prescription and manage your care, and whether a physician is involved in decisions about your treatment. The credentials differ from one person to the next, so the answer matters.

Ask whether any weight management program includes a medication. The practice does not name a weight loss medication. If one is offered, ask whether it is a brand-name drug or a compounded one, and what your total cost is with and without it.

Ask what lab work costs. The practice says its evaluation includes full laboratory testing with stimulation and suppression testing as needed. Ask whether that testing is billed separately and whether follow-up labs are extra.

Ask whether visits can be done by video or phone, whether it accepts your insurance, and how you cancel a program. Ask whether any fee applies if you stop partway through.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want care from an endocrine and diabetes practice for hormone, thyroid, blood sugar or weight concerns, and you are ready to get the price and medication terms in writing before you pay. It is a weaker fit if you need a published, all-inclusive price before you call, since none is posted.
