We're a cash-pay practice, which means no insurance gatekeeping, no surprise bills, and more time focused on your actual care. Our pricing is kept simple and unbundled — you always know exactly what you're paying for and to whom. Here's exactly what it costs — laid out plainly, so you can decide with full information.
Booking is how you begin. Your $175 is paid up front, and it starts the process: you complete your intake, and only then do we order your labs. Your full 60 minutes are spent on your actual results — not a first conversation before we know anything.
After you've booked and your intake forms are reviewed, we place your lab order right away — so your results are already in hand by the time we meet, and your visit is spent on answers, not waiting.
Finding the problem is step one. Fixing it takes time and adjustment. For hormone and metabolic health, ongoing management isn't optional — it is the treatment. We'll talk through whether this is the right fit for you at the end of your visit, not as an afterthought later.
The question isn't just "what does it cost?" — it's "what am I getting?" Here's the honest comparison.
The honest answers to what people most often wonder before booking.
Insurance reimbursement rewards short, high-volume visits — the opposite of what good hormone and metabolic care requires. By staying cash-pay, we can offer 60-minute visits, order the labs that actually matter for your situation, and answer your messages directly, without an insurer dictating your care. You're not paying for a quicker prescription; you're paying for time, attention, and a provider who looks for the cause. For many people, the cost is comparable to a few insurance copays once you account for the depth of care.
For hormone and metabolic health, ongoing care isn't a "nice to have" — it's how the treatment actually works. If you're on hormone therapy, a GLP-1, or managing a metabolic condition, your protocol needs to be adjusted as your body responds, your labs need tracking over time, and your prescriptions need managing. That's what ongoing care covers, and it's where results come from. That said, if your situation is simple and correctable, I'll tell you honestly that you don't need it — and you're welcome to return for a paid follow-up visit whenever you'd like. I'd rather earn your trust than sell you a subscription you don't need.
No. There are no long-term contracts. Monthly membership can be cancelled anytime with 30 days' written notice. The relationship continues because it's working for you, not because you're trapped in it.
Labs are ordered as part of starting care, so your $175 visit is booked first — it's the foundation for everything else, and it's where those numbers get interpreted and turned into an actual plan, since raw numbers rarely tell the whole story on their own. After your visit there's no obligation to continue: Ongoing Care is optional, with no long-term contract. The choice is genuinely yours at every step.
Plan on about $400: the $175 visit plus about $225 for labs. They are two separate payments — the visit is paid to Beacon when you book, and labs are paid directly to Fullscript at our wholesale cost, with no markup. Your exact lab cost depends on the panel your history calls for, and if you already have recent outside labs we'll use them and order only what's missing.
Because booking is what starts the process. Your $175 reserves your place and covers the clinical work that happens first: reviewing your intake and building your lab order around your history. We order labs only after that is done, so you're never paying for a panel before you've started care and we've confirmed it's the right one. The 60-minute visit itself is scheduled once your results are back.
Yes. If, at the end of your visit, continuing with Ongoing Care makes sense, your first month is included in the $175. It starts on the date of your visit and runs 30 days. After that it's $135/month with no contract, and you can cancel anytime with 30 days' written notice. If you don't need ongoing care, there's nothing more to pay.
Because guessing is a poor use of your hour. Once you've booked and your intake is complete and reviewed, we order your labs right away — so by the time we meet, your results are already in front of us. Instead of taking a history and speculating, we go straight to what your body is actually showing. Most people leave that 60-minute visit with a concrete roadmap, not a lab order and a "let's see."
If you've had relevant labs drawn within the last 90 days — through your primary care provider, urgent care, or elsewhere — let us know during intake and send them along. We'll use everything we can. Most outside panels cover the basics but not all of the hormone and cardiovascular markers we look at, so we'll tell you exactly what's missing before your visit and order only that, billed separately the same way any lab is. You won't pay twice for the same test.
Keeping the visit fee and the lab bill separate keeps things simpler and more transparent for everyone. You pay Fullscript directly for your labs, at our practitioner (wholesale) cost — not a markup added onto our own fee. It also means a lower price to begin, with labs as a clearly separate line (plan on roughly $400 in total, not $175), and it lets you use an HSA or FSA card on the lab portion if your plan allows it. Nothing about your care changes: we still order thoughtfully and review your results together in full.
Our own visit and membership fees are cash-pay and not billed to insurance. For labs, most patients order through Fullscript at wholesale cost — that's not billed to insurance either, but HSA/FSA cards are accepted there. If you'd rather use your insurance for labs, or Quest isn't reasonably accessible to you, we can instead issue a signed lab requisition for a facility that accepts your insurance. It isn't our default because the Fullscript price is known up front; we cannot guarantee what your insurance will cover, and you're responsible for any charges that result. Many patients also use their insurance pharmacy benefit for medications, which can meaningfully reduce those costs, and imaging like a CAC scan may be covered if recommended. We're glad to help you use your insurance wherever it genuinely saves you money.
Book your $175 visit to get started — complete your intake, and we'll place your lab order right away (billed separately, about $225) so your results are ready when we meet. Or take a smaller first step — a free 15-minute intro call or our 2-minute symptom self-check. No pressure, no obligation.
