Your path to better health
How hormone care works at our Edina clinic
Every patient starts in the same place: a real conversation with a provider who specializes in hormones, not a 10-minute primary care visit. From there, we test, we build a plan, and we stay with you.
Free consultation
Meet with Gary Rudashevsky, APRN, Nicolie Houdek, FNP-C, or Angela Elliott, APRN to discuss your symptoms, goals, and health history. No referral needed.
Comprehensive in-house labs
We draw blood on-site and process results the same visit. Full hormone panels, metabolic markers, and anything else relevant to your case.
Your personalized treatment plan
Based on your labs and goals, we build a plan — TRT, BHRT, peptides, weight loss, or a combination. You leave knowing exactly what you're doing and why.
Ongoing monitoring and adjustments
Regular follow-up labs keep your levels optimized. Your plan evolves as you do. Direct provider access between visits.

"Started peptide therapy alongside my TRT here and the combination is remarkable. Recovery time from workouts is dramatically shorter. The whole team is incredibly knowledgeable."
–Tanya H.
Nicolie spent a full hour explaining everything — the actual science, not talking points. I felt completely informed before starting. That level of care is rare."

Why White Bear Lake patients drive to Edina
Why White Bear Lake patients drive to Edina
White Bear Lake and the northeast metro have limited options for specialized hormone care. Patients who want TRT or BHRT managed by providers who focus exclusively on hormone optimization‚ with comprehensive panels, individualized dosing, and ongoing monitoring‚ find that the 40-minute drive southwest on I-35E to Hwy 62 and France Avenue is worth making. Same-day lab results and treatment initiation mean the investment is a single efficient visit rather than a series of trips.
Peptide therapy for White Bear Lake patients
Peptide therapy is available to all patients regardless of distance. White Bear Lake and northeast metro patients use BPC-157 for injury recovery, CJC-1295/Ipamorelin for growth hormone support, and cognitive peptides for mental clarity and anti-aging‚ frequently combined with TRT or BHRT for patients seeking comprehensive optimization.
Direct Access Lab for White Bear Lake residents
White Bear Lake residents use the Direct Access Testing lab to order hormone panels, thyroid testing, and metabolic labs without a physician's order. Same-day results mean the 40-minute trip is an efficient use of time‚ you leave with objective data and a clear path forward.

Common Questions
FAQs — hormone therapy near White Bear Lake
Is the drive from White Bear Lake worth it for hormone therapy?
For patients who want specialized, monitored hormone care‚ not a standard primary care prescription‚ the answer from current Northeast Metro patients is yes. Same-day lab results and treatment initiation mean a single trip covers what would take multiple appointments elsewhere.
How long does the drive from White Bear Lake take?
Typically about 40 minutes via I-35E South to Hwy 62 West, then north on France Avenue to 6550 York Ave S, Suite 211, Edina.
Can I order lab work without becoming a patient?
Yes. The Direct Access Testing lab is open to anyone‚ no doctor's order or treatment commitment required. It's a practical first step for White Bear Lake residents who want objective hormone data before scheduling a consultation.
Do I need multiple visits before starting TRT or BHRT?
In most cases, no. The initial consultation and in-house lab work happen the same visit, and providers can often initiate treatment once results are reviewed.
