Your consultation with Dr Mimier will be spent discussing the many different aspects of your health that affect you and will determine your individual treatment plan. Here at Virginia Preventive Medicine and Wellness we pride ourselves on treatment tailored to your specific needs. You will not find assembly-line medicine or a one-size-fits-all approach to replacing your hormones. 

1. Dr. Mimier’s patients have his personal contact information. They can call, text, or email with any questions, problems, or concerns.
2. We place an emphasis on promotion of your health through lifestyle enhancements focusing on nutrition, exercise, supplements, and hormone optimization.
3. We use only the highest quality medications with dosages that can be tailored for your specific needs.
4. Limited office visits – no need to constantly come in for follow-up visits. Follow-Up visits, which are included in your plan, can often be completed via telehealth and are typically done at 6-8 weeks, 12-14 weeks, at 6 months, and then once every 6-12 months thereafter. Starting hormone replacement requires a period of time to dial in the proper dose for you based partly on symptom resolution and partly on lab values, but once that is established, adjustments are rarely needed.
5. Self-administered medications. If you require injections, there is no need to come in for your injections. You will be taught how to give your own injection and it’s much easier than you might think. We do not use the typical long and large bore needles and syringes used by many other clinics. There are a variety of ways to take hormone replacement. This includes injections, creams, and oral forms. We usually have recommendations based on what medical literature tells us about the levels necessary to achieve both the health and wellness benefits.
6. We do not accept insurance. This allows us to prescribe medications as clinically indicated and without needing to obtain “permission” from insurance companies. We offer a premium service for a fair price. Our goal is to make this as affordable and accessible as we can for everyone.
7. Individualized medication and nutrition plans based on a comprehensive workup. If you are serious about symptom resolution then you need more than 2-3 labs checked and then placed on a cookie-cutter protocol. A complete clinical picture is required for complete health and wellness. If you are currently on hormone replacement and feel like your provider might not understand your needs, it’s worth getting a second opinion.
8. Dr Mimier stays abreast of the most current medical practices and literature in this very nuanced and niche area of medicine. He participates in monthly journal clubs with the most advanced and evidence-based wellness and preventive medicine physicians in the country.  These journal clubs are designed to critically evaluate the most recent medical literaure in health and wellness. He is actively engaged in continued medical education and attends multiple educational events each month on evidence-based health and wellness. He does not subscribe to old-school medical dogma that is no longer based on the most advanced and up-to-date medical literature.
