General Questions

Do you take insurance?
We do not work with insurance, but you can elect to use your HSA account to cover the cost of products and services. Our services and products are affordable and we have budget-friendly options available to help you live your best life.
What happens during my free consultation?
We would like to help solve whatever ails you so you can continue to live life your way, but Better. We take the time to learn what ails you, how do you want to feel, how do you want to live etc. We then help you make a plan that will allow you to live the life you want, free of pain, injury, or other ailment. We want to help you increase your energy, vitality and longevity so you can begin to Live Your Life Better.
Why should we use your supplements or vitamins?

We don’t carry, sale or us any supplements. Our products pharmaceutical grade and meet SOP, MOP, cGMP standards and we routinely pass FDA and Third-Party audits. We control the entire production process—from formulation, to raw material sourcing, to manufacturing and laboratory testing of incoming materials and finished products, to bottling and labeling—we are the perfectionists you’d expect from a local family-owned business. We offer high quality products at a lower cost because we don’t invest in supermodels, movie stars, fitness influencers, or anything else that causes companies to greatly inflate their costs and provide a sub-par product. We have been voted Tucson’s best hormone, weight loss and wellness clinic on multiple occasions because we provide quality service and products that work.  

Why are your prices lower than everyone else?

We cater to the needs of Tucsonans. Our goal is to provide affordable care that actually works. We are able to keep our cost down, by relying on word of mouth and our reputation to generate clients. Without the high overhead of big company dues, advertising, paying influencers and marketing, we are able to provide the best products and services without inflated prices.  Our specialty services are created by our science, medical, holistic, integrative and nutritional experts, which means, we don’t pay for outside scams and products that are overpriced and backed by poor data.

Treatment Specific Questions

What is PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma), and how do you make it?
Blood has both liquid and solid parts. The liquid is called “plasma.” The solids are red and white blood cells and platelets. Platelets contain proteins called “growth factors” which are hormone-like molecules that help control the process of tissue repair and exert a powerful influence on wound healing. During treatment, your own blood is drawn and centrifuged to separate the blood cells from the plasma, platelets and growth factors. This platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is then re-injected into your injured area so that the growth factors can stimulate healing to that specific area of your body.
If I use testosterone therapy as a woman, will I begin to grow hair in unwanted places or have other similar side effects?
Testosterone is a naturally-occurring hormone in both men and women and is necessary to maintain proper function of the body. Testosterone maintains healthy functioning of reproductive tissue, bone mass and can also help regulate mood. We always use your lab results to determine whether or not therapy is needed and how much testosterone is required to bring your body into balance. Low testosterone in women can cause low libido, fatigue, weight gain. Balancing testosterone can help ease these symptoms and will not cause an increase in unwanted hair growth or other similar side effects.
How long is a Stem Cell Therapy session?
A Stem Cell Therapy session takes about 15-30 minutes. It is a quick way to help you live life pain free!
What are Peptides?

Peptide therapy increases growth hormone production, which improves your overall health and wellness by increasing your body’s functionality in these core areas:

  • Immune function
  • Sleep cycles
  • Production of inflammatory
  • DNA replication
  • Cell Division and renewal
  • Cancer cell destruction and apoptosis
  • Libido and sexual arousal
  • Tissue healing and the specific biological functioning of the brain, skin, eyes, urinary, and repoductive systems
What kind of nutrients go into your IV Nutrient Therapy?
IV Nutrient Therapy can be used as a simple rehydration in preparation for, or after a long weekend of abuse (ie: too many shots of tequila and not enough water) as well as post-illness to speed recovery. IV Nutrient Therapy is an incredible way to boost performance naturally the day before a competition or event and as recovery after an event. We also use IV Nutrient Therapy to deliver needed vitamins and minerals when the body is experiencing a deficiency.

Product-Specific Questions:

What is the difference between synthetic and bioidentical testosterone?

At Tucson Wellness MD, we only use bioidentical testosterone in our Testosterone Replacement Therapy because bioidentical testosterone is naturally derived from plants, and is therefore a closer match to what your body naturally produces. Synthetic testosterone, by contrast, is created in a lab using synthetic products and chemicals. We believe in using natural products whenever possible to keep your body strong, healthy, and empowered for years to come.
