About Dr. Woods Wellness

What is Dr. Woods Wellness?

Dr. Woods Wellness is a functional medicine practice at 300 Unity Circle, Suite A, in Lee's Summit, Missouri. Its services are Integrative Functional Medicine, Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy, and Weight Loss and Management. Dr. Malaika Woods is the one prescriber named, and no credentials are published beside her name. She sees both men and women, and the practice aims to find the root causes of symptoms. Google lists the business as a medical clinic with a 4.5 rating from 48 reviews.

The website offers free material alongside the services. That includes a guide titled "3 Secrets to Hormone Balance Every Woman Should Know," a free training, and a resources page on supplements. It also publishes articles on weight loss after 40 and on hormone imbalances in men. It does not name the medications used for weight loss or hormone therapy, and it does not list office hours.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. There is no consultation fee, no monthly program price, and no price for hormone therapy or weight loss care. It does not say whether it accepts insurance, whether HSA funds or financing can be used, or whether medication is included in any program. Before you book, call (816) 888-5200 and ask for the cost of a first visit, the cost of each ongoing service, and whether any of it can be billed to insurance. Ask for the answers in writing if you can.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with who signs the prescription. Dr. Malaika Woods is the name given, but no credentials are published, so ask what training she has and who writes each prescription. Ask whether the weight loss program is physician-supervised, since the practice does not say. Ask which medications are used for weight loss and for hormone therapy, and whether they are brand-name or compounded. Ask whether the monthly fee covers the medication, follow-up visits, and lab work, and what the labs cost on their own. Ask whether visits can be done by video or must happen in person, because telehealth is not mentioned. Finally, ask how to cancel and whether you are locked into a term.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live near Lee's Summit, want to be seen in person there, and are ready to confirm prices and prescriber details before any money changes hands. It is a weaker fit if you need the costs and medication names spelled out before you pick up the phone.
