Why do I have to pay for the consultation when I’ve paid for blood tests?

We understand why this can feel frustrating, especially after already paying for blood tests. It’s a very common question.

Blood tests are an important first step, but they are only one part of the Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) process. TRT is a prescription-only medical treatment, which means a doctor must carry out a full clinical assessment before any treatment can be prescribed.

The consultation fee covers a comprehensive medical review by a specialist clinician. During the consultation, the doctor will:

• Review your blood test results in detail

• Consider your symptoms and overall health

• Review your medical history

• Screen for potential risks, such as prostate concerns or elevated red blood cell levels

• Decide whether TRT is safe, appropriate, and legal for you

• Create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your individual physiology

This process goes well beyond a standard check-up. It ensures your treatment is medically supervised, safe, and focused on your long-term health, not just your test results.

We know this is an investment, and we want you to feel confident that every step is there for a reason. If you have any questions or would like further clarification, we’re always happy to help.
