About Seaside Family Medicine

What is Seaside Family Medicine?

Seaside Family Medicine is a family-owned primary care practice with offices in Summerville and Florence, South Carolina. Most of its work is ordinary family medicine: adult and pediatric visits, walk-in care, sports physicals, blood pressure checks and rapid drug testing. Two of its services fit the categories this directory covers. It runs a structured medical weight loss program, and it offers hormone replacement therapy through virtual visits. Patients can join from anywhere in South Carolina for the hormone program.

The prescribers named on the practice's pages are Fiona Dunn, FNP, Katie Beth Hollowoa, DNP, and Katherine Saunders, FNP, who is listed at the Florence location. Amanda McAllister, DNP, sees pediatric patients only. Kayte Crosby, a family nurse practitioner, is on the weight loss team and proposed the structured program. The weight loss team also includes a physical therapist and a nutritionist. Its Google listing shows a 4.3 rating from 198 reviews.

In its own words: "We do not treat lab numbers alone. We treat patients." That line introduces the hormone program, which begins with a consultation covering medical history, current medications and laboratory testing.

This listing is for its Summerville office at 1708 Old Trolley Rd C.

What does it cost?

The initial consultation is $250 and each follow-up visit is $100, both charged per visit. Neither price includes lab work or medication, which the practice says vary. The practice does not publish a price for the weight loss program, and it does not say whether weight loss visits are covered by insurance.

Insurance is described inconsistently. One page says the practice is now in network with Cigna, with Aetna and UnitedHealthcare pending. Another says it plans to be in network with all three for adult primary care beginning Fall 2026, and it invites adults to join an interest list until then. Adults can also use self pay rates or a Direct Primary Care membership. The membership fee is not published, and no membership terms or cancellation policy are given. Pediatric visits are billed through insurance.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs the weight loss prescription and who sees you for follow-up. Ask which medication the program uses, whether it is brand name or compounded, and what it costs each month, since no program price is published. Ask whether the program fee includes the medication and labs, and whether weight loss visits can be billed to insurance.

For hormone therapy, ask what labs cost at the start and during ongoing monitoring, and which pharmacy fills the medication, since the consultation price leaves both out. If you are considering a membership, ask for the monthly fee, what it covers and how to cancel, because none of those terms are published. Before you book, confirm which adult insurance plans are in network today, given the conflicting wording. You can call the main line at (843) 400-0028.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a family practice that also runs a medical weight loss program or virtual hormone therapy, and you are ready to ask for prices and cancellation terms before you commit. It is a weaker fit if you need a published monthly price, a named medication or written membership terms before you book.
