Weight management
Does TruHealth offer medical weight management?
Yes. Weight management begins with an individualized evaluation and may include lifestyle guidance, nutrition counseling, monitoring, and medication when clinically appropriate.
Are GLP-1 medications part of weight-management care?
GLP-1 medications may be part of a plan for some patients when clinically appropriate after a full evaluation. They are not a shortcut, and they are not right for everyone. No specific results are guaranteed.
Does weight-loss treatment guarantee results?
No. TruHealth does not guarantee specific weight-loss outcomes, timelines, medication approval, or insurance coverage. Plans are individualized and monitored over time.
Hormone & testosterone care
What is hormone replacement therapy?
Hormone replacement therapy provides hormones that may help with symptoms related to changing hormone levels, most often discussed around menopause. It requires clinical evaluation and is not appropriate for everyone.
Does TruHealth offer bioidentical HRT?
Yes, TruHealth offers bioidentical HRT using a non-pellet approach. Bioidentical hormones are not automatically safer or more effective than other options; risks, benefits, and alternatives are reviewed individually.
Does TruHealth offer non-pellet HRT?
Yes. TruHealth's hormone therapy approach is non-pellet, meaning hormones are not administered as implanted pellets.
Does TruHealth offer testosterone care?
Yes, including evaluation and clinically appropriate management. Symptoms alone do not establish a diagnosis, and treatment is based on history, appropriate testing, and monitoring.

Does TruHealth accept Medicare?
