CONSULTATIONS & FEES

Consultations for hormone balancing and supplements are available after we first review the results of a 5-panel saliva test. This costs $215 and includes a saliva test for 5 hormones (estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEAS, and cortisol). The laboratory returns the test results to me. I evaluate the results and prepare a written report, which contains specific recommendations for hormone balance and supplements. When my evaluation suggests a need for prescription hormone supplements I will make specific recommendations that you should share with a doctor who can prescribe them.

Brief follow-up calls about the test results and my recommendations are included in the original fee.

We are convinced that using pure bio-identical hormones is the only valid way to achieve proper hormone balance. Some bio-identical hormones are available without a prescription. Bio-identical hormone supplements are usually only available from a compounding pharmacy. You are under no obligation to obtain your hormone supplements from my pharmacy. We do not accept insurance payments for any preparation we sell. We provide a claim form for any compounded prescription item you purchase from us.

If there is a need for more intensive, personal discussion you may schedule an appointment, for either an in-person visit or by telephone. The fee is $75 for up to 45 minutes. This is almost always sufficient to resolve even the most complex issues. Time over 45 minutes is billed in $45 increments of up to 30 minutes. For example, a 45 minute consultation is $75.00, a 46 to 75 minute consult is $120 ($75 + $45), a 76 to 105 minutes is $165 ($75 + $45 + $45).

A member of our staff will gather your credit card information prior to the scheduled appointment. The consultation will be timed and you will be notified of the charge at the completion of the consultation.
