About Truwell Integrative Medicine

What is Truwell Integrative Medicine?

Truwell Integrative Medicine is a primary care practice at 15 Main Street, Sperryville, VA 22740. The phone number is (540) 987 5014. The one prescriber named is Sheeba Asad, FNP, ND, who has over nine years of experience in patient care. The practice mainly blends primary care with functional and naturopathic medicine. It lists five services: holistic primary care, functional medicine, medical weight loss, hormone management and IV vitamin therapy. On Google it is listed as a medical clinic and rated 5 from 14 reviews.

The weight loss program starts with a 60-minute new patient appointment and lab work, then moves to a plan built on nutrition, lifestyle, exercise and, when appropriate, medication. Add-ons include lipotropic and B12 injections and supplements. Truwell names five medications its providers may prescribe: Wegovy, Phentermine, Zepbound, Bontril and Contrave. It describes these as FDA-approved and prescribed only when lifestyle changes alone are not enough. In its own words: "We don’t believe in quick fixes or one-size-fits-all diets." Hormone management covers bio-identical hormone therapy, compounded creams or injections, and testosterone therapy for men, all after lab testing.

Office hours are Monday 9am to 4pm, Tuesday and Thursday 9am to 6pm, and Saturday 9am to 2pm. Wednesday and Friday hours are not listed.

What does it cost?

Truwell does not publish prices for any of its services, including the weight loss and hormone programs. New patients book a complimentary consultation, which Truwell calls a discovery call, before any visit. Truwell accepts all major insurances for its primary care services. It also notes that weight loss services are covered by most insurance plans and asks patients to contact the office about their own coverage. It does not say whether medication is included in the weight loss program cost, and it does not mention membership terms, financing or cancellation.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who will sign any prescription. Truwell says "our providers" may prescribe weight loss medication, and only Sheeba Asad is named. Ask whether the monthly program fee includes the medication or whether the drug is billed separately. Ask whether any weight loss medication would be compounded, since Truwell lists compounded options for hormone care.

Ask what the bi-weekly follow-ups, in-office assessments and lab tests cost, and whether any of them are covered by insurance. Ask whether follow-up visits can be done by video or phone, because Truwell does not state this. Ask how to cancel a program, whether there is a fee, and how many weeks of notice are required. Ask for the Wednesday and Friday hours before you plan a visit.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a primary care practice that also offers weight loss and hormone care, and you are comfortable with a provider who blends conventional and naturopathic approaches. It is less clearly a fit if you are looking for peptide therapy or longevity medicine, since the clinic does not list either among its services.
