Learn what to expect from hormone therapy telehealth. At Aurora Total Wellness, we go beyond ‘normal’ labs to optimize hormones and offer flexible prescription options without restrictive subscription plans.
Introduction
Do you feel tired, stressed, or like your body just isn’t working the way it used to? Many people struggle with fatigue, weight gain, low libido, or mood changes without realizing hormones may play a key role. The good news is — you don’t need to travel to a specialty clinic to get answers. With hormone therapy telehealth, you can meet with a provider virtually and take control of your health.
What Is Hormone Therapy Telehealth?
Hormone therapy telehealth is the process of working with a qualified provider online to identify and treat hormonal imbalances. Through secure video visits, we can review your symptoms, order labs, and create a treatment plan tailored to your needs. At Aurora Total Wellness, this may include:
• A comprehensive virtual consultation
• Lab orders (sent to a local lab near you)
• Review of results and customized treatment options
• Ongoing follow-up visits to monitor progress and adjust therapy
Why “Normal” Isn’t Always Optimal
One of the biggest frustrations patients share is being told 'everything is normal' when they still feel terrible. Here’s the truth: the “normal” lab ranges you see on your results are based on averages of the general population who get blood work drawn. For things like electrolytes, normal ranges are usually fine. But for hormones, 'normal' doesn’t always mean optimal. That’s why at Aurora Total Wellness, I don’t stop at 'you’re in the normal range.' Instead, I look at whether your hormone levels are truly optimized for your age, health goals, and quality of life. Many patients experience significant improvement when hormone levels are adjusted to an optimal range rather than just the statistical average.
Why Aurora Total Wellness Is Different
Many telehealth companies only focus on one piece of the puzzle — hormones, weight loss, or urgent care. At Aurora Total Wellness, we know your health is interconnected. That’s why we offer:
• Hormone optimization (for men and women)
• Weight management support
• Wellness and preventive care
• Primary care services
With one provider, you get a complete picture of your health — no need to juggle multiple clinics or repeat your story over and over. Patients often say they love having 'one place for everything.'
Bioidentical Hormone Therapy & Prescription Flexibility
Unlike many clinics that require subscription memberships and force patients to use specific pharmacies, I believe in patient choice.
Here’s how it works at Aurora Total Wellness:
• I prescribe bioidentical hormone therapy when appropriate.
• Prescriptions are sent to the pharmacy of your choice.
• If you don’t have a preferred pharmacy, I’ll suggest options.
• While I may establish relationships with compounding pharmacies in the future to enable discounted prescription pricing, patients will always have options — you will never be locked into one pharmacy or subscription plan.
This flexibility empowers you to choose what works best for your budget and lifestyle.

What to Expect From Your Virtual Hormone Visit
During your visit, we’ll take time to talk about your symptoms, history, and goals. If lab work is needed, you’ll receive an order to a nearby lab. Once results are in, we’ll review them together and outline treatment options — which may include lifestyle changes, supplements, or prescription hormone therapy.Follow-ups are scheduled regularly to monitor your response, ensure safety, and adjust your plan as needed.
