Pricing

What care costs here, before you book

We publish our self-pay prices because you shouldn’t have to call to find out what a visit costs. These are our cash rates — the same whether you’re seen in Durham or by telehealth from another state.
How payment works

Two ways to pay

Most patients fall into one of these. If you’re not sure which one is you, call us and we’ll work it out before you schedule anything.

Using insurance

We accept certain insurance plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC, Brighton Health, Aetna / North Carolina State Health Plan, and traditional Medicare. What you pay depends on your plan’s deductible, copay and coinsurance.

Paying directly (self-pay)

If your plan isn’t one we accept, or you’re a telehealth patient outside North Carolina, you pay the cash prices listed below. No claims, no surprise balance later — you know the number before the visit.

Pay per visit

Single visits, billed at the time of service. Good if you want to start without committing to a program.

Lifestyle Medicine memberships

Ongoing care at a predictable monthly cost, with messaging access between visits. Most patients working on weight or metabolic health choose one of these instead of paying visit by visit.

What these prices don't include
