As noted the $129 nurse/med fee is inaccurate.

The $250 PA fee is ONLY for the initial consult. Subsequent follow-ups can be with nurse or PA less than half the initial consult cost.

The first 3-6 months (sometimes slightly longer for complex cases) are the most labor-intensive with labs and consults (as many adjustments are often needed and made). Once a given patient is truly "dialed in", labs and consults are often pushed to every 6 months based on patient and provider comfort level.

Please contact your intake coordinator (Adam or Chelsea) if you feel that you were misled or misquoted in ANY way. They are almost universally very upfront and accurate with the information they give. It is one of our primary missions to make costs as affordable as possible (on a cash pay basis) and also ensure exceptional value by way of expert medical care.
