I recently had my hormone levels tested by an independent lab and found that they were low. I tried treating it with vitamins, supplements and diet, and got myself retested and they were still low.
I contacted MD Longevity and before I could talk to the doctor, they require that I get my hormones levels tested. They would not accept the test results from a few days earlier, even though it was from the same testing lab that the MD Longevity uses.
The cost for the same test from the same lab through MD Longevity was 3x what I paid only a few days earlier. I went ahead and had the same tests again, to find out that there is another fee to get the doctor to review the results with her. After the phone consultation with the doctor (the doctor was over 2 hours late to call), I agreed to an in office, face to face meeting to get a treatment plan and products. The doctor indicated that the treatment plan would run about $500 a month.
Once I got to the face to face meeting, I found out that there was a fee for that meeting, a fee to start my treatment program and a six month 'management fee' for the doctor. None of this included that actual monthly products or disclosed to me prior to coming to the meeting. The doctor was 90 mins late to the face to face meeting.
The doctor walked me through the products and they were nothing more than generic vitamins with her clinic's name on them. I obtain similar vitamins from GNC and pay about $80 a month. The doctor claims that the vitamins were pharmaceutical grade yet they were in a generic bottle and did not require a prescription. The doctor would not provide proof of the quality of the vitamins.
I decided that I did not want to participate in the plan and the doctor was unwilling to refund the costs for the meeting, the fee for opening up my treatment plan or the vitamins since SHE opened them during the meeting to review the regiment for taking them. I refused to take the products and had to open a fraud claim with my credit card company to reverse the transactions from the face to face meeting.
From the time I first contacted MD Longevity, the focus was fees, my credit card and more fees. Stay away, this clinic is a complete scam.
