About Virginia Women's Center

What is Virginia Women's Center?

Virginia Women's Center is a women's health practice with offices in Midlothian, Mechanicsville, Short Pump, the West End and Kilmarnock, Virginia. It is part of Privia Women's Health, which the clinic describes as a national network. Its main work is OB-GYN care: gynecology, obstetrics, urogynecology, breast health and mammography, ultrasound, bone and mental health services, and surgeries and procedures. Medical weight management and menopause care, including hormone replacement therapy, are two of its services. The Central Business Office on its list is not a clinical office.

The prescribers named are Leigh Lewis, MD, Christina McWhorter, MD, and Alex Vaclavik, MD. The weight page describes Lewis as board certified in obstetrics and gynecology with an obesity management focus. It describes McWhorter and Vaclavik as board certified in obstetrics and gynecology and in obesity management. The weight team also includes registered dietitians. Telehealth is offered, with same- or next-day appointments and 24/7 telehealth for immediate care. On Google the practice is rated 4.8 from 2,022 reviews. In its own words: "Guided by your medical history, we will customize a medical weight loss program just for you."

This listing is for its Mechanicsville office at 8364 Bell Creek Rd.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices or a consultation fee. The clinic accepts insurance, but its only coverage statement is about medical weight management. It says most insurance carriers typically cover those treatments, and that eligibility requirements must be met. It does not say whether your plan covers menopause care or hormone therapy. It also does not say whether medication is included in any program price.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with which offices offer weight management and menopause care, since the clinic does not say which location handles either. Ask who prescribes hormone replacement therapy, because no prescriber for that service is named. Ask which medications a weight program can include, and whether they are brand-name or compounded, since no medication is named publicly. Ask whether the program fee covers medication and dietitian visits. The weight page gives two different visit counts, up to eight and five, so get the exact number in writing. Ask what follow-up visits, lab work and bone density scans cost, and whether your plan covers them. Finally, ask how billing and cancellation work for any program you pay for over time.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want OB-GYN care in one practice and are considering weight management or menopause treatment alongside it, and you are willing to confirm insurance, prescriber and medication details before paying. It is a weaker fit if you need a published price before you call.
