What is Diabetes & Lifestyle Management?
Diabetes & Lifestyle Management is a nurse practitioner practice with its main office in Derry, New Hampshire. It has offices across New Hampshire and Vermont, and it will soon have locations in Massachusetts. James Harris, APRN, opened the practice in 2015 and is its owner. Seven nurse practitioners see patients: James Harris, APRN, Shari Sarris, APRN, Colleen Skeirik, APRN, Sarah Tremblay, APRN, Jennifer Godek, APRN, Hanna Beaudette, APRN and Lyndsey Vallee, APRN.
Its main focus is diabetes and cardiometabolic care. Weight loss is also a program, using tirzepatide (Zepbound) and semaglutide (Wegovy) alongside lifestyle educators. Hormone therapy is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy given as Biote pellets, which contain testosterone or estrogen. The practice also offers Venus Bliss MAX body treatments. Its Google rating is 4.3 from 9 reviews.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices for weight loss or hormone therapy, and it does not publish a consultation fee. The only prices it publishes are for Venus Bliss MAX: $500 for a single diode laser treatment on one area, and $2,620 for a combo of three diode laser treatments and eight 4D body treatments.
Weight loss medication can go through insurance or be paid privately. In its own words: "We offer medication through your insurance as well as Self-pay options if it is not covered by your insurance." It does not say whether the medication is included in any price, or whether hormone therapy is covered by insurance.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who signs the prescription and whether visits with the nurse practitioner can be virtual. It offers in person or virtual meetings with its lifestyle educators, but it does not say which prescriber visits can be virtual.
Ask whether the monthly program price includes the weekly medication, and what the medication costs if you pay yourself. Ask whether the brand-name Zepbound or Wegovy is used, or whether any compounded version is offered.
The first visit with a nurse practitioner includes a lab review, so ask whether that review carries a fee. New patients must have their primary care provider fax a referral, recent labs and the last office note before scheduling. Follow-up is planned monthly or as recommended, so ask what those visits and repeat labs cost.
Ask how to cancel, since no membership terms are published. Ask which office you would be seen at, because it does not name the towns of its other offices.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a nurse practitioner to prescribe and monitor weight loss medication, you are ready to pay cash for what insurance will not cover, and your primary care provider can send the referral paperwork. It also suits readers who want hormone pellets or body treatments from the same office. Call (603) 552-3309 and ask the questions above before you book.
