About Sabia Health

What is Sabia Health?

Sabia Health is a direct primary care practice at 3211 Shannon Road, Suite 205, in Durham, NC 27707. The phone number is 984-529-6958. Its main focus is midlife care for women roughly 40 to 64, and it is run by a physician who is Board Certified in Family Medicine. Visits are in person in Durham, and the practice offers virtual care to any North Carolina resident. It also works in both English and Spanish.

The practice lists annual physicals, management of chronic conditions such as hypertension, diabetes and asthma, weight management, menopausal hormone therapy, gender-affirming hormone therapy, treatment of anxiety and depression, same-day or next-day urgent visits and virtual visits. In its own words: "We offer nuanced, evidence-based hormone therapy tailored to your individual needs." It does not name specific medications or publish office hours. Google lists it as a medical clinic with a 5 rating from 9 reviews.

What does it cost?

The practice does not bill insurance. Direct primary care means you pay the practice directly instead. An urgent care or annual exam is $125 per visit. A Peri+Menopause Consultation is $250 per visit and includes 3 months of medication and messages by text, phone or email for dose adjustments. Weight Management is $200 per visit and includes 3 months of medication. Continued refills need a follow-up visit at $125, due within 3 months for the consultation and every quarter for weight management.

Membership is $150 a month. The membership listing also shows a $150 enrollment fee, but the FAQ answer says there is currently none, so ask which applies. Membership covers an annual exam, care plan, unlimited visits and direct access to the physician by phone or text. HSA and FSA funds can usually be used. The practice does not state a separate consultation fee or cancellation terms.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which physician signs your prescriptions and whether you will see that doctor at every visit. Ask whether the $150 monthly membership covers any medication, and whether the medication is brand-name or compounded. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost once the included months run out, and how to cancel a membership, including how much notice is required. Since no office hours are published, ask when the office is open and how same-day requests are handled.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you are a woman in North Carolina, roughly 40 to 64, who wants one physician for menopause care, hormone therapy, weight management or a chronic condition, and you are prepared to pay cash. It is not a fit if you need a clinic that bills insurance.
