About Functional Medicine of Columbus

What is Functional Medicine of Columbus?

Functional Medicine of Columbus is one office at 8611 Columbus Pike in Lewis Center, Ohio. It describes itself as a functional medicine clinic that looks for root causes of chronic symptoms. Its team page also calls the practice an integrated medical spa, and most of the services it lists are aesthetic: Botox, filler, laser treatments, PRP and hair restoration. It also lists medical weight loss, HRT and IV therapy. It does not name peptide therapy or longevity medicine.

The prescribers named are Dr. Matthew Marcotte, DC, CFMP, a chiropractic physician and founder of Pure Health Aesthetics & Wellness who does the initial functional medicine interview, and Kristin Saylor, a Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing from The Ohio State University. Dr. Marcotte has served Lewis Center and greater Columbus since 2006. The clinic connects Saylor to the GLP-1 weight loss program and to BioTE hormone replacement. Google lists the clinic with a 5 rating from 4 reviews. The office is open Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 8am to 12:30pm and 2:30pm to 6pm, Tuesday from 2:00pm to 6pm, and Friday from 8am to 12:30pm. It is closed Saturday and Sunday.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. There is no consultation fee, no monthly program price, and no price for weight loss, hormone therapy, injectables or lasers. It does not say whether medication is included in a program, whether it accepts insurance, whether it offers telehealth, or what its cancellation terms are. Ask for each of these in writing before you book. The office number is 614.839.1044.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs the prescription for the GLP-1 medication, and whether that is Kristin Saylor. Ask whether the drug is brand-name or compounded, and who supplies it. Ask whether a monthly fee covers the medication, the visits and the lab work, and what each follow-up visit and each lab test costs when billed separately. The clinic describes its initial and follow-up visits as up to an hour, so ask what each one is charged.

Ask which business you are paying. The clinic uses the names Functional Medicine of Columbus, Pure Health and Pure Health Aesthetics & Wellness, so confirm which one is on the bill and the contract. Ask how you cancel and whether there are fees. If peptide therapy or longevity care is part of what you want, confirm it is offered, because the clinic does not name either.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want GLP-1 weight loss care or BioTE hormone replacement from a Nurse Practitioner in Lewis Center, and you are willing to get the medication terms and total cost in writing before you pay. It is a weaker fit if you need prices and inclusions listed up front, or if you are mainly looking for peptide or longevity medicine.
