Hormone therapy, weight loss and thyroid care for Falmouth, VA
Falmouth is the closest community to our office: across the Rappahannock, about two miles and five minutes away. If you live in Falmouth or nearby Hartwood, True You offers physician-led hormone therapy, medical weight loss and thyroid care without a long drive.
Across the river, not across the county
Falmouth is a census-designated place in Stafford County, on the north bank of the Rappahannock directly opposite Fredericksburg. About 4,956 people lived there at the 2020 census. It is a residential community with a long history: the Falmouth Historic District, Belmont (the former home of the artist Gari Melchers), and Chatham Manor on the river bank all sit within a few minutes of one another, and Lake Mooney is nearby for fishing and quiet water.
Our office is at 904 Princess Anne St, Suite 207 in downtown Fredericksburg. In light traffic the drive from central Falmouth is about two miles and five minutes, which makes this the easiest area for in-person care. That matters because hormone therapy, weight-loss medication and thyroid treatment all depend on repeat visits and lab draws. A close office means those are simple to keep up.
The drive, step by step
From most of Falmouth you reach us by the Chatham Bridge on Kings Highway, which crosses the Rappahannock into downtown Fredericksburg. Once across, a few blocks bring you to Princess Anne Street. The Falmouth side is served by US 1 and US 17 Business (Cambridge Street), and I-95 exit 133 (US 17) is close if you are coming from farther north in Stafford.
Bridge traffic can slow at the start and end of the workday, as it does across the region, so we suggest scheduling late-morning appointments if you can. Our hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.
Coming from Hartwood or further out Route 17? Expect a longer drive in on US 17 toward Falmouth and then across the river. The first visit and lab work are in person; many later check-ins can be virtual, so a longer drive is the exception rather than the rule.
What Falmouth patients ask us about
The same programs we offer everywhere, with the emphasis on care that needs frequent monitoring.
Hormone therapy and menopause
Women in perimenopause and menopause who want a clear explanation of their options, and men with symptoms of low testosterone. Both involve follow-up labs, which is easy when the office is five minutes away.
Hormone therapyMedical weight loss
Weight-loss medications such as semaglutide and tirzepatide, when they are right for you, come with check-ins on dose, side effects and labs. Falmouth is close enough to do those in person.
Weight lossThyroid and Hashimoto’s
A complete thyroid panel with antibodies, and a recheck schedule after any medication change.
Thyroid careFatigue and “normal” labs
A root-cause work-up for people who have been told nothing is wrong.
Functional medicineWhy a short drive changes the care
Treatments in this area are not one-time events. A hormone dose is adjusted after labs come back. A GLP-1 medication is increased in steps while we watch how you tolerate it. Thyroid medication takes weeks to settle and then needs rechecking. Patients who live far away do much of this virtually, and that works well. Patients who live five minutes away can choose, visit by visit, between a virtual check-in and an in-person one, for instance when a blood draw or an exam is due.
It also helps when something comes up between visits. If a dose is not sitting right, a quick in-person look is realistic from Falmouth in a way it is not from an hour away.
Cost and insurance
True You is cash-based and out-of-network, which keeps visits long and the plan in the physician’s hands. We explain the cost of your specific plan at your consultation, before you start. There is no single price for “hormone therapy” or “weight loss,” because the work-up, medications and follow-up differ from person to person.
If you already have a doctor in Falmouth
Most people who come to us have a primary care physician they like, and we are not trying to replace that relationship. A cash-based practice like ours does a different job: more time per visit, testing a standard insurance visit may not cover, and a plan that involves hormones, metabolism or the thyroid in more depth.
With your permission, we are glad to send our findings to your doctor and to read what they have sent us. Bring any recent lab work and a list of medications and supplements to your first appointment. That avoids repeat testing and helps Dr. Hoff spot interactions.
For many Falmouth patients, the best arrangement is simple. Your primary care doctor handles routine care, vaccines, screenings and acute illness. We handle the longer investigation and the treatment plan that follows from it, and we keep each other informed.
What the first appointment covers
About an hour, in person. Dr. Hoff asks about your symptoms and when they started, your medical and family history, medications and supplements, sleep, food, exercise, stress and anything you have already tried. A focused exam follows when it is useful. Together you decide which labs make sense, and blood work is done at our office.
You leave with a clear idea of what is being tested and why. Treatment decisions come after the results, at a second visit that can usually be done by video.
