[QUOTE="Gardner, post: 36577, member: 13167"] Going to have to agree with BeeGee on this one. I'm a Helix patient in Santa Cruz. I absolutely love HELIX! I was going to start Defy, but there were some things that just didn't appeal to me. Namely, California users have to find a PCP who will sign-off on a physical (here in California), and then you have to make sure the physical is sent to Defy. From there, the Defy doctor qualifies you from Florida. In addition, you have to go to LabCorp every 3 to 6 months for blood tests (if your insurance covers it). If not, you have to get a TRT panel from DiscountedLabs.com, which is also going to run around $250, and has to be done 2 or 3 times a year. Of course, other hormones will then be recommended to be tested, so you're looking at blood test costs of about $1000 yearly. For me, in doing all the math for the visits I would have to undertake and out-of-pocket costs for blood work, the cost of Defy and Helix was about equal. As far as Helix goes, it couldn't be more convenient. Helix sent phlebotomists to my home and had my blood drawn here. A doctor also visited my home to do my physical. Blood results are reported over the Helix mobile app on your iPhone or Android and prescriptions are sent directly to you. The Helix system is all under one roof, with no medical office visits needed for physicals or blood work. Again, Helix is beyond convenient and basically the same price. As far as upsells go, I haven't been upsold on a single thing by the administrators at Helix. Helix charges more for additional mobile visits, so that's about the only upsell I've had. For Bay Area users needing TRT, Helix is terrific. [/QUOTE]
