Charlotte questions
Common questions from Charlotte patients.
My practice is based in Charlotte, NC and operates as a virtual direct-care model. There is no walk-in clinic. Patients meet with me by video visit and message securely through my EMR. This lets me give Charlotte patients the kind of focused, unhurried care that a brick-and-mortar schedule rarely allows.
Yes. The practice is membership-based. The membership is access to me. You become a member, I order your diagnostic baseline (the lab vendor's price is paid by you separately, at cost), I interpret it and write your Plan, and we work the Plan together over time.
No. Membership involves ongoing clinical care and is available to any North Carolina resident, not only Charlotte. If you live outside NC, I am happy to coordinate with your care team where you are.
No. The practice is cash-pay direct care. I provide superbills for HSA/FSA reimbursement and for any out-of-network benefits your insurance may offer. Not running insurance is what lets me spend the time that real synthesis requires.
Two things. First, I am North Carolina's only fully certified Health Optimization Medicine physician, with the advanced Peptide Hormones certification. Second, this is a physician-only practice. You work with me directly, not a coach or a nurse practitioner running a protocol.
