Hormone & Wellness in Skippack, PA
Hormone and wellness care at ILM covers bio-identical hormone replacement therapy for women and men, peptide therapy, IV vitamin therapy, NAD+ therapy, and quick vitamin booster shots. The common thread is that these are medical services, delivered inside a real clinic — not a supplement counter and not a mail-order protocol.
That distinction shows up in the order of operations. Symptoms like persistent fatigue, brain fog, low libido, poor sleep, mood changes, and weight that will not budge can point in several directions, so programs here start with bloodwork and a medical review rather than a prescription. Your plan is then built around your actual numbers, adjusted as we see how you respond, and rechecked at follow-up. Prescription items — hormones, testosterone, peptides — are recommended only when they are medically appropriate for you after that consultation, and sometimes the honest answer is that a different approach fits better.
The credibility behind that oversight is specific. Medical Director Dr. Gregory Bolton, Jr., MD, a board-certified OB/GYN, has performed approximately 15,000 hormone pellet insertion procedures and directs the program’s protocols. Leslie Fritz, CRNP — certified through The Menopause Society — leads day-to-day hormone care for both menopause and andropause, and ILM offers bio-identical hormones by pellet as well as traditional routes such as creams, injections, and oral protocols, so the delivery method is matched to your labs and your life. Bryan Pluck, RN, BSN, who is Peptide University certified, leads the peptide program and administers IV and NAD+ therapy.
The IV, NAD+, and booster-shot side of the category is framed the same way, just more modestly: these support hydration, energy, immune wellness, and recovery goals, they are offered after a brief review confirms they are appropriate, and they are not treatments for medical conditions or substitutes for medical care. Across everything here, effects build over time alongside good nutrition, sleep, and activity, and results vary from person to person.
Hormone & Wellness at ILM is led by Leslie Fritz, CRNP — Lead Wellness Specialist.

What to expect
A consultation, then bloodwork and a medical review: Your first visit is a real conversation about symptoms, health history, current medications, and what you are actually hoping to change. For hormone therapy and most prescription programs we draw a lab panel so treatment is guided by your numbers instead of a template, and nothing is prescribed until it is medically appropriate for you. A $199 consultation fee applies to hormone & wellness, medical weight-loss, and men’s-health consultations.
Building and starting your plan: Once your labs are back, your provider walks you through the options and the reasoning — pellets or traditional bio-identical protocols for HRT, a targeted peptide protocol, an IV blend or booster chosen for your goals — and you start on a plan you understand, including what it costs. For hormone pellets, placement is a brief in-office procedure; traditional protocols are dosed on a schedule you can actually keep.
Follow-up, rechecked labs, and adjustment: This is an ongoing, monitored program rather than a single visit. We recheck labs and how you feel, fine-tune dosing, and adjust cadence over time — the supervision is the part that separates hormone optimization from a one-size prescription. Timelines differ from person to person, and results vary.
Questions, answered
Do I need bloodwork before starting hormone therapy?
Yes. Hormone care at ILM is lab-guided: we draw a panel and review your history before anything is prescribed, and we recheck labs during treatment to guide adjustments. Bloodwork is the only way to confirm what is actually going on rather than treating a guess — we test before we treat.
What is the difference between hormone pellets and traditional HRT?
Pellets are tiny bio-identical inserts placed under the skin in a brief in-office procedure; they release hormones steadily over several months, so there is nothing to apply or inject on a daily schedule. Traditional protocols use creams, injections, or oral forms dosed more frequently. ILM offers both for women and for men, and your provider recommends a route based on your labs, symptoms, and preferences. Our Medical Director has performed roughly 15,000 hormone pellet insertion procedures.
What does a hormone and wellness consultation cost?
A $199 consultation fee applies to hormone & wellness, medical weight-loss, and men’s-health consultations. Hormone, medical weight-loss, and peptide programs then run on a $99 per month membership, which begins after that consultation. Beyond that, programs are individualized to your labs and chosen protocol, so treatment pricing is reviewed at your consultation and you know it before anything begins — we do not publish flat prices. Financing through Cherry and CareCredit is available, and it is worth asking about our current monthly specials.
Is hormone replacement therapy right for me?
Women with symptoms of perimenopause, menopause, or hormone imbalance and men with symptoms of low testosterone are often good candidates, but HRT is a medical therapy with both benefits and risks, so suitability depends on your health history and your labs. That is exactly why it runs here as a physician-supervised, lab-guided program with real follow-up. Your provider determines whether therapy is appropriate and safe for you, and will tell you plainly if it is not.
How soon do people notice a difference?
It depends on the program and the person. Many patients on hormone therapy begin noticing changes in energy and sleep over several weeks as levels stabilize, with fuller effect over one to three months; peptide and IV programs tend to build more gradually alongside good habits. Timelines vary, dosing is adjusted based on repeat labs and how you feel, and results vary from person to person.
