What is Thrive Carolinas?
Thrive Carolinas is a collaborative health center at 6401 Carnegie Blvd, Suite 2A, Charlotte, NC 28211. The phone number is (704) 390-7150. It describes itself as a platform of conventional, integrative and functional medicine practitioners working in one setting. Its main work is primary care and integrative and functional medicine. It also runs a weight management program and offers hormone therapies. Around that medical core, it offers yoga, cooking classes, dietetics, massage and facials. It also offers a free eVisit with a provider.
The clinic names four prescribers: Dr. Amy Fletcher, Dr. Nancy Palermo Lietz, Dr. Tracy Larson and Harlee Palmer, PA. Dr. Larson is described as a board-certified specialist with the American Board of Obesity Medicine. Google shows a 4.7 rating from 106 reviews. The listed hours are Monday through Thursday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Friday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., and closed Sunday. One section lists them differently, so confirm before you go.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices, and no consultation fee is stated. It is cash pay only. In its own words: "We are an out-of-network provider, which means we do not accept insurance. You can expect to pay a fee for service." It will give you a receipt to submit to your insurer, but it cannot guarantee reimbursement. It says it will give expected costs, including lab work, when you schedule.
No monthly or annual retainer is required for its services or for access to clinical staff. It also offers a membership that is not mandatory, and its price is not published. Nothing says whether medication is included in the weight management program, so ask about that first. The program starts with an in-depth consultation, and the first appointment with a doctor is at least one hour.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who will sign your prescription, and whether it will be one of the four named prescribers. Ask whether the weight management fee covers any medication or whether drugs are billed separately. The clinic does not name a weight loss medication, so ask which one it would use and whether it is brand-name or compounded. For hormone therapy, ask which hormones it prescribes and whether those are brand-name or compounded.
Ask what the consultation, follow-up visits and lab work cost, and ask for the expected costs in writing. Ask what the membership costs, what it covers and how to cancel it. If you are looking for peptide therapy or longevity medicine, ask directly, since neither appears in its list of services.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want primary care, weight management or hormone therapy from a named physician, you can pay cash, and you want a long first visit. It is a weaker fit if you need a published price or a named weight loss medication before you call. If you only want a class, massage or facial, you can book those without seeing a doctor.
