What is BraVa Health & MedSpa?
BraVa Health & MedSpa is a medspa and health practice at 4959 Highway 17, Unit B, in Murrells Inlet, SC 29576. It is veteran owned and staffed by nurse practitioners. The prescribers it names are Brandy Van Heyde, NP-C, and Maureen, FNP. The practice started as Palmetto Express Clinic, which opened on April 9, 2018, on Dick Pond Road in Myrtle Beach.
Much of what it offers is skin work, including laser treatments, dermal fillers, neurotoxin and facials. The health side covers weight management, hormone management and peptide therapy, along with ED and libido injections, IV hydration, lab services and primary care.
For weight management it offers GLP-1 injections and says it has other options too. Hormone management is aimed at women in the peri and post menopausal stages, and it lists bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. In its own words: "Your treatment plan may include oral, topical, injectable, or pellets." Its peptides are AOD-9604, MOTs-C, GHK-Cu, BPC-157, TB-500, Tesamorelin, Cagrilintide and NAD+. It does not name which prescriber handles weight management or peptides.
What does it cost?
It does not clearly say whether it accepts insurance. Its pricing wording points to cash pay: "We offer a low cash pay visit rate and transparent pricing for additional services." It does not publish a visit rate as a number, a consultation fee, or prices for weight management, hormone therapy or peptides. It does not say whether medication is included in any price, and it does not state membership or cancellation terms. Get each figure in writing before you book.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who signs the prescription for weight management and for peptides, since the clinic does not tie a named prescriber to either. Ask whether the program fee includes the medication, and if it does not, what the medication costs each month. For the GLP-1 injections, ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded. Ask what the consultation costs, and whether the consultation and lab testing that its peptide plans include are part of the price. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost over the first few months, and how often you will be seen.
The peptide page describes its lineup as physician selected, but the named prescribers are nurse practitioners, so ask who chose each peptide and who monitors it. Finally, ask how cancellation works and whether any fee is refundable, since it does not state cancellation terms.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want nurse practitioner care for weight management, hormone therapy or peptides, you plan to pay cash, and you will get prices, prescriber names and cancellation terms in writing before you commit. It also suits anyone who wants skin treatments and medical care under one roof.
