About Open Wellness PDX

What is Open Wellness PDX?

Open Wellness PDX is a naturopathic and regenerative medicine practice at 1901 N Killingsworth St, Portland, OR 97217. The phone number is 503-770-0670. It is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Saturday from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and closed Sunday. Google shows a 4.9 rating from 324 reviews.

The team includes ten clinicians. Nine carry the ND credential: Ilana Gurevich ND, LAc; Kate Leavens ND, LAc; Alaina Goesling ND, LAc; David Chang ND, LAc; Katherine Lara ND, LAc; Rebecca Sand ND, LAc; Meghan Larivee ND, MSOM, LAc; Hanna Rosenthal ND, LAc; and Elizabeth Emrick ND. Erica Simonich is listed as MSN, WHNP-BC.

Its services fall under digestive health, sports medicine and pain, women's health, dermatology, metabolic health and immune dysfunction. Within those, it treats weight changes, insulin resistance, perimenopause and menopause, and hormonal issues. It also lists stem cell, PRP and ozone therapy, but gives no detail beyond the names. Telehealth visits are offered to people in Washington, Oregon and California.

Where do GLP-1 medications and hormones come in?

Weight changes is where GLP-1 medication comes up. Rebecca Sand ND, LAc and Elizabeth Emrick ND are the clinicians named for building those plans. In its own words: "pharmaceutical options including GLP-1 receptor agonists when clinically appropriate." It does not say which clinician would prescribe a GLP-1 medication.

For perimenopause and menopause, the practice says a thorough health history, and sometimes labs, help determine when hormones might help with symptoms. Labs are described as optional for that question, but they can clarify a treatment plan.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. Its consultation is described as a free confidential consultation. Insurance is accepted only in Oregon, and the practice notes that this applies to Dr. Gurevich. It does not say whether insurance covers weight loss or hormone visits.

Telehealth visits that are not billed to insurance fall under a virtual visit fee schedule, but the amounts are not given. It does not say whether any fee includes GLP-1 medication, and it gives no price for hormone therapy or lab work.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which clinician would sign a GLP-1 prescription, and whether that is the same clinician who builds the weight plan. Ask whether the medication is included in any program fee, and whether it is brand-name or compounded. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, since labs can be part of hormone decisions and are not priced.

Ask whether your visit would be billed to insurance, and if you are booking a telehealth visit, what the virtual fee would be for your state. Ask how cancellation works and whether anything renews automatically. If you want a medical doctor involved in your care, ask whether one is available.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want one naturopathic practice to address weight, hormones and digestion together, you live in Portland or can attend a telehealth visit in Washington, Oregon or California, and you are prepared to pay cash for visits insurance does not cover. If you need to know who will prescribe before you book, ask that first.
