General

Hardcore Health currently provides telehealth services to eligible patients located in Florida and Arizona at the time of their appointment. Treatment availability may vary based on the patient's location, clinical needs, provider licensure, and applicable regulations.

Yes. Consultations and follow-up appointments are generally conducted through secure telehealth technology. Certain services, testing, medications, or treatments may require an in-person visit with another healthcare professional or laboratory.

Hardcore Health is designed to provide continuity of care. Whenever possible, you will continue working with a provider who is familiar with your history, goals, treatment plan, and progress.

Please contact Hardcore Health before booking for current information about insurance, self-pay pricing, consultation fees, medication costs, lab fees, and available payment methods.

No. A consultation allows a licensed provider to evaluate your concerns and discuss potential options. Treatment or medication is provided only when the provider determines that it is medically appropriate.

Lab work may be required depending on your symptoms, medical history, current medications, and the treatment being considered. Your provider will explain which tests, if any, are needed.

Your provider may be able to review recent lab results if they include the necessary information and are considered clinically current. Additional testing may still be requested.

Timing depends on appointment availability, completion of your intake, the need for lab work or medical records, provider evaluation, treatment eligibility, and medication availability. No specific start date should be promised before the clinical review is complete.

Please have a valid photo ID, your current medication and supplement list, relevant medical history, recent lab results if available, and any questions you would like to discuss.

Your provider may recommend additional testing, request medical records, discuss treatment options, or determine that a particular service is not appropriate. If a treatment plan is recommended, you will receive instructions regarding next steps, follow-up care, monitoring, and costs.

Medical Weight Management

Licensed providers may prescribe medication to qualifying patients when it is clinically appropriate and permitted by applicable law. Medication is not guaranteed and is only one possible part of a comprehensive weight management plan.

Available medication options depend on clinical appropriateness, patient eligibility, prescribing regulations, and medication availability. Your provider will discuss the options that may be appropriate for you.

Results vary significantly from person to person. Progress may depend on health history, medication response, nutrition, activity, sleep, stress, adherence, and other factors. Hardcore Health does not guarantee a specific amount or rate of weight loss.

Your provider can help you discuss a maintenance strategy based on your health, progress, treatment response, and long-term goals. Maintenance plans are individualized and may change over time.

HRT and TRT

Symptoms such as fatigue, mood changes, weight changes, reduced libido, brain fog, or poor sleep may have many possible causes. Your provider will review your symptoms, history, medications, and lab results when clinically appropriate before discussing treatment options.

Appropriate lab testing is commonly an important part of hormone evaluation and monitoring. Your provider will determine which tests are necessary based on the treatment being considered and your individual health.

A prescription is never guaranteed. Your provider may need to review lab results, medical records, health history, risks, contraindications, or other information before determining whether treatment is appropriate.

Follow-up timing depends on the treatment plan, symptoms, medication, laboratory monitoring, and clinical response. Your provider will explain the recommended schedule.

Peptide Therapy

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that perform many signaling functions in the body. The term peptide therapy includes different products with different uses, risks, evidence, regulatory status, and availability.

Regulatory status varies by the specific product and intended use. Some peptide medications have uses that have received regulatory approval, while others may not be approved for a particular wellness purpose. Your provider should explain the status of any specific treatment being considered.

Every medical treatment can involve potential risks, side effects, interactions, and contraindications. Safety depends on the specific product, the patient's health, proper sourcing, appropriate use, and clinical monitoring. A provider evaluation is required.

Some treatments may be considered together, but combination therapy is not appropriate for everyone. Your provider will review potential interactions, risks, benefits, and monitoring needs before making a recommendation.
