What is West End Obstetrics & Gynecology?
West End Obstetrics & Gynecology is an ob-gyn practice at 7601 Forest Ave Suite 100 in Richmond, VA 23229. You can reach the office at 804-282-9479. Its main business is obstetrics and gynecology, including gynecological care, obstetrics care with prenatal care and ultrasounds, mammography, menopause management, vaginal rejuvenation and robot assisted surgery. Hormone therapy and a weight management program sit alongside that core work.
The hormone therapy is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy, or BHRT. The practice names pregnenolone, DHEA, progesterone, estrogen, testosterone, thyroid and melatonin, and describes the medicines as compounded according to strict pharmaceutical standards. In its own words: "The cornerstone of this plan is bioidentical hormones." The weight management program lists medical monitoring, nutritional counseling, behavioral therapy and ongoing support, but it does not name a weight-loss medication. The practice names one prescriber, Mary Elizabeth Myers, FNP-C, MSN, announced as joining the practice starting January 26, 2026. It does not say who handles hormone therapy or weight management. Virtual appointments are available. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 am to 5:00 pm, and the office is closed on weekends.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices or a consultation fee. It also does not say whether medication is included in any program fee, or describe cash pay, HSA or financing options, or membership terms. It accepts most insurance plans, HMO/PPOs and Medicare/Medicaid. It does not say whether hormone therapy or weight management is covered, and it asks patients to confirm that its doctors are in their insurance network before booking.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who signs the hormone prescription and who runs the weight program, since only one prescriber is named. Ask which pharmacy compounds the hormone medicines and whether a brand-name version is an option. Ask whether the weight program includes a prescription medication, and if so, which one and what it costs each month. Ask what the consultation, lab work and follow-up visits cost, since the practice describes extensive lab testing as part of its hormone evaluation. Ask whether any monthly fee covers medication, and how cancellation works. Ask your insurer which of these services it covers.
Finally, confirm the office address. The Forest Avenue address appears under both Richmond and Henrico, and one of its listings gives 7600 Forest Hill Ave instead.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want an ob-gyn practice that also offers hormone therapy and a weight program, and you are ready to ask about the prescriber, the medication and the monthly cost before you commit. If you need published prices or a named prescriber for each service before you call, expect to ask for both.
