Frequently Asked Questions
What does concierge medical care include for Charlotte patients?
Concierge care includes a wide range of personalized services. You will have a dedicated provider with whom you can communicate directly via phone, text, or video. You will receive same-day or next-day appointments, extended visit times, and customized care plans. We offer primary care services like checkups, chronic condition management, acute illness care, lab testing, and preventive screenings. Beyond that, you have access to advanced services such as hormone therapy, weight loss medications, peptide treatments, pain management through PRP, and wellness planning. Everything is coordinated in one place, saving you time and delivering real results.
Do I need insurance to be a concierge patient at Energize Health and Wellness?
You do not need insurance to become a concierge patient. Our membership-based model allows us to focus on your care without the constraints of insurance coding or rushed visits. While we do not bill insurance directly, we can provide you with detailed receipts that you may submit to your insurance provider, HSA, or FSA for reimbursement. Many patients find that this model improves their overall health, reduces emergency visits, and helps them avoid unnecessary procedures, which can ultimately lower their total healthcare costs over time.
How do I know if hormone therapy is right for me?
Hormone therapy may be right for you if you are experiencing unexplained fatigue, low libido, weight gain, mood swings, or poor sleep. We begin with an extensive lab panel that checks testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, thyroid, DHEA, and more. Based on your symptoms and results, we create a personalized hormone replacement plan. This may include testosterone injections, BHRT for women, or supportive therapies like peptides. Our approach is methodical and safe. We monitor your progress closely and adjust your treatment as needed to ensure optimal balance without side effects.
How quickly can I expect results from weight loss medications like Ozempic or Mounjaro?
Most patients begin noticing decreased appetite and mild weight loss within the first few weeks. Over the course of several months, consistent use of Ozempic or Mounjaro can lead to substantial fat loss, especially when combined with lifestyle adjustments. We monitor your progress with regular weigh-ins, lab work, and feedback sessions to ensure you are losing weight safely and efficiently. Because these medications also improve insulin sensitivity, many patients also experience better energy, improved blood sugar control, and reduced cravings.
Can PRP therapy help with joint pain and is it better than cortisone?
PRP therapy is an excellent option for many joint and tendon issues, particularly when cortisone has not worked or is no longer effective. While cortisone reduces inflammation temporarily, it does not heal tissue and can actually degrade cartilage over time. PRP, on the other hand, uses your own growth factors to stimulate repair and regeneration. It is especially effective for knee osteoarthritis, shoulder injuries, elbow tendonitis, and plantar fasciitis. We conduct a full evaluation to ensure you are a good candidate and often pair PRP with peptides for enhanced results. Most patients experience reduced pain and improved function within a few weeks.
