Peptides at Performance Health
The Truth About Peptides:
​
Despite the fact that every med spa is now handing out peptides like high-fives - the truth is that peptides come with risk. Many peptides carry theoretical or demonstrated risks, including the potential to promote cancer growth or accelerate existing cancers. Most are classified as research use only and lack human safety or efficacy data. Because of this, Performance Health does not recommend peptide therapy.
This said, at Performance Health, we respect personal autonomy in health decisions. Some patients choose to explore peptide therapy despite limited data. Our role is to ensure that if someone elects to use these peptides, they do so with medical oversight, appropriate screening, and a realistic understanding of potential risks. We seek to help people exercise their autonomy as safely as possible.
​
What are peptides?
​
Peptides are small chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules affecting processes such as hormone regulation, tissue repair, metabolism, and inflammation. Some are well established to be effective for certain conditions while others have emerging research; many remain largely unstudied.
​
Contrary to rumors - peptides are not risk free "because they are something our body makes". This is a gross oversimplification that seeks to minimize real risks associated with their use. Most FDA approved peptides are known to cause common mild to moderate side effects, less common but severe side effects and long term side effects - just like every other medication.

-
Initial Consult
-
In-depth assessment of your health, goals, lifestyle, physical exam, peptides of interest to you and overall peptide options.
- In-depth risk, benefit and alternatives conversation regarding peptides of interest. As stated above - we DO NOT recommend using peptides due to a lack of research. ​
-
Member: Initial consult is included in the monthly membership, as are follow ups.
-
-
Non-Member: Usually $175 or $250 depending on complexity. This is the fee for our visit, assessment, opinions and advice. ​

-
Labs if Needed
-
Needed for baseline assessment of health if no recent labs.
-
We accept other providers' labs or labs done by your PCP.
-
The cash pay price for the most basic of these labs is around $75 for members and $125 for non-members.

-
Prescription

We will prescribe peptides when reasonable. Peptides are delivered to the patient or to the clinic (per patient preference) from a legitimate compounding pharmacy in Florida, Arizona or Texas.
-
Cost of peptides varies, and the admin fee for peptides is discounted for members.

​
We are NOT a peptide retailer.
We do not use or offer gray market peptides.
Retatrutide is a gray market only peptide - WE DO NOT offer it.
​​
*Most peptides are not regulated or approved by the FDA and are often research-only. Our practice and providers do not condone the use of peptides, we offer them as a form of harm reduction. We support our patients in their right to access peptides.
​
Peptide prices are NOT LISTED because there are multiple pharmacy options for many peptides - pharmacy is selected based on patient's choice. All peptides are charged an administrative fee, depending on membership level. Dependent on availability from pharmacies, which changes day to day.
