Whether you’re visiting Almas for women’s health, preventive care, hormone support, weight management, aesthetics, or wellness, here are answers to some of the questions patients commonly have.
What services does Almas offer?
Almas provides personalized care across women’s health, preventive and primary care, perimenopause and menopause, medical weight management, hair loss, preconception care, gynecologic concerns, aesthetic treatments, and IV wellness therapy.
Who can receive care at Almas?
Our services are designed to support women through different stages of life, from preconception and reproductive health to menopause, preventive care, healthy aging, and longevity-focused wellness.
What makes Almas different?
We take a whole-woman approach. Rather than focusing only on a single symptom, we consider your medical history, hormones, metabolism, lifestyle, goals, and stage of life when developing your care plan.
Do I need to know which service I need before booking?
No. If you are unsure where to begin, a comprehensive consultation can help us understand your concerns and determine the most appropriate next steps.
What happens during my first consultation?
Your first visit is an opportunity to discuss your health history, symptoms, concerns, medications, lifestyle, and wellness goals. Your provider may recommend additional evaluation, testing, or treatment based on your individual needs.
How do I book an appointment?
You can request an appointment through our website. A member of the Almas team will follow up with you to confirm the details.
How quickly will I receive a response?
We aim to respond to appointment and consultation requests within 24 hours.
Should I bring anything to my appointment?
It is helpful to bring your current medication and supplement list, relevant medical records, recent laboratory results, and any questions or concerns you would like to discuss.
Do you provide care for perimenopause and menopause?
Yes. We provide individualized evaluation and management for perimenopause and menopause symptoms, including hormonal and non-hormonal treatment options when appropriate.
Do you offer hormone replacement therapy?
Hormone replacement therapy may be considered for appropriate patients following an individualized medical evaluation. Treatment recommendations depend on your symptoms, medical history, risk factors, and preferences.
What symptoms can be discussed during a menopause consultation?
Common concerns include hot flashes, night sweats, sleep changes, mood changes, brain fog, weight changes, low energy, sexual health concerns, and vaginal symptoms.
Do you offer medical weight management?
Yes. Our approach may include metabolic evaluation, nutrition guidance, lifestyle planning, body composition assessment, behavioral support, and medication management when clinically appropriate.
Do you prescribe GLP-1 medications?
GLP-1 medications may be considered when medically appropriate after evaluation by a qualified healthcare provider. They are not suitable for every patient.
Do you treat hair loss in women?
Yes. We evaluate different causes of female hair loss, including hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, postpartum changes, female pattern hair loss, and other possible contributing factors.
Will I need blood work for hair loss?
Laboratory testing may be recommended when clinically appropriate to help identify underlying factors that could be contributing to hair loss.
Do you offer Botox® and Dysport®?
Yes. Almas offers personalized cosmetic Botox® and Dysport® treatments based on your facial anatomy, movement, and aesthetic goals.
Will my results look natural?
Our aesthetic approach focuses on subtle, balanced results designed to help you look refreshed while preserving natural facial expression.
What IV wellness treatments are available?
Almas offers wellness-focused IV therapies that may support hydration, energy, recovery, immune wellness, and other individual needs.
Do I need an evaluation before IV therapy?
An assessment may be required to determine whether IV therapy is appropriate for you and which option best fits your health needs.
When should I schedule a preconception consultation?
You can schedule a preconception visit before you plan to begin trying for pregnancy. This allows time to review medications, nutrition, vaccinations, chronic conditions, supplements, and other health considerations.
Do you provide fertility treatment?
Almas provides preconception and fertility-focused health optimization. If specialized fertility treatment is needed, appropriate referral or coordination with specialists can be discussed.
Is my information confidential?
Patient privacy is important to Almas. Medical information is handled in accordance with applicable privacy and healthcare requirements.
Should I send medical information through the website contact form?
Avoid submitting highly sensitive medical information through a general website form unless specifically requested. Use approved secure communication methods when available.
What should I do if I have an urgent medical problem?
The website and online appointment forms should not be used for medical emergencies.
If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or seek immediate emergency medical care.
Our team is here to help you find the right place to begin.
