About NW Naturopathic Medicine

What is NW Naturopathic Medicine?

NW Naturopathic Medicine is a naturopathic practice at 7000 SW Hampton St, Ste 130, in Tigard, Oregon. It says it serves the Metro Portland area. Four prescribers are named: Renee Schwartz, ND; Nathalie Paravicini, ND; Wendy Hodsdon, ND; and Ki Hacely, LAc, ND. Its listed services are hormone therapy and menopause care, medical weight loss with GLP-1 support, Walsh-informed mental health nutrition, craniosacral therapy, acupuncture and pain support, and LENS neurofeedback. It also offers IV boosts and telemedicine visits. Google lists it at 4.5 from 18 reviews.

The hormone program includes nutrition, lifestyle support, lab evaluation, and bioidentical hormone therapy when appropriate. The weight loss program includes lab evaluation, nutrition support, and GLP-1 medications when appropriate. The clinic does not name which GLP-1 medications it uses.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices for visits, lab work, hormone care, or weight loss. Its out-of-pocket page says: "We bill the same price no matter what insurance coverage you have." It adds that visits are priced by complexity of care, time spent with the doctor, and procedures done during the visit. A first visit is scheduled for 90 minutes, and follow-ups for 45 minutes.

The clinic accepts insurance and says its providers are in-network with most major insurers, though coverage varies by plan and by provider. It says insurance often covers office or telemedicine visits and basic lab work. It says LENS therapy, craniosacral therapy, specialty labs, injection and IV therapy, and supplements are often paid out of pocket. Patients paying without insurance can ask for a Good Faith Estimate if they book at least three days ahead. The clinic does not say whether medication is included in any program fee.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask which of the four prescribers would handle your care, and whether that person would be the one who signs any prescription. Ask whether a weight loss program fee includes the GLP-1 medication, which medication it is, and whether it is brand-name or compounded. Ask the same about the hormone products.

Ask what a follow-up visit, lab panel, and injection cost, and what the monthly total comes to in a typical month. Because the clinic does not verify insurance for patients, ask your insurer directly whether it covers the specific provider you would see. Ask for office hours, which are not listed, and how to cancel or pause a program, which is not described.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want naturopathic doctors in Tigard to handle hormone, weight loss, or mental health care, and you are prepared to pay for the parts insurance does not cover. If you need prices and medication details in writing before you commit, call first and get those answers before you book.
