TRT in Lake Worth: Physician-Led Testosterone Therapy

NovaGenix provides physician-directed testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) to men in Lake Worth Beach and central Palm Beach County. Care is directed by Dr. Timothy W. Mackey from the practice's only office, at 609 N. Hepburn Ave., Suite 106, in Jupiter. There is no Lake Worth office. Bloodwork is done at a Labcorp near you, and you can visit Jupiter in person or use telehealth when Dr. Mackey determines it is clinically appropriate.

How TRT Works When You Live in Lake Worth

Lake Worth patients usually complete most of their care without driving to Jupiter. The office is about 25 miles, or 35–45 minutes, north on I-95, so NovaGenix keeps the steps that don't need an office visit close to home.

1. Contact NovaGenix. Call or text 561-277-8260, or request a consultation online.
2. Complete your bloodwork. NovaGenix sends you a Labcorp requisition. You can use any Labcorp patient service center in Florida, whichever is closest to your home or office.
3. See the physician. Dr. Mackey reviews your results together with your symptoms, history and medications. You can come to the Jupiter office, or use telehealth when he determines it is appropriate for you.
4. Get your medication, if it's prescribed. Prescriptions are filled by licensed pharmacies and can be shipped by FedEx, delivered by local courier, or picked up in person.
5. Keep up with monitoring. Follow-up laboratory work and physician check-ins are part of treatment, not optional extras.

There are Labcorp draw sites in the Lake Worth area, including locations inside some Walgreens stores. Use Labcorp's location finder to pick the one closest to you.

Symptoms That Lead Men to Get Tested

Men usually get tested because of symptoms like these:

• Lower sex drive
• Difficulty achieving or maintaining erections
• Persistent fatigue or low energy
• Loss of muscle mass or strength
• Increased body fat, especially around the midsection
• Irritability, low mood or poor concentration
• Poor sleep quality

These symptoms are common, and low testosterone is only one possible cause. Thyroid disorders, sleep apnea, depression, medications and other conditions can produce the same picture. That is why NovaGenix confirms testosterone levels with bloodwork and a physician evaluation before discussing treatment. To screen yourself first, use the ADAM questionnaire on our low testosterone testing page.

NovaGenix and Dr. Mackey are not mental health providers. If low mood or depression is part of what you're experiencing, Dr. Mackey may work with your primary care physician or mental health provider.

What Can Lower Testosterone

Testosterone tends to decline gradually with age, but age is not the only cause. Other contributors can include:

• Certain medications
• Testicular injury, or treatment for testicular cancer
• Chemotherapy or radiation therapy
• Heavy alcohol use or drug use
• Pituitary gland disorders

Finding the cause matters, because it can change which treatment, if any, is appropriate.

Who Is and Isn't a Candidate for TRT

TRT is not appropriate for every man with symptoms. Eligibility is decided by the physician after laboratory testing and evaluation.

Dr. Mackey considers:

• Testosterone levels, confirmed with morning bloodwork
• Your symptoms and how they affect daily life
• Prostate health, including PSA for men 40 and older
• Red blood cell levels (hematocrit)
• Other conditions and current medications
• Whether you plan to have children, because TRT can suppress sperm production. See TRT and fertility.

If testing and evaluation do not support TRT, NovaGenix will tell you so.

What Your Bloodwork Includes

The male hormone panel through Labcorp is $125, the standard price for all NovaGenix patients. It typically includes:

• Free and total testosterone
• Estradiol (sensitive)
• Complete blood count (CBC)
• Comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP)
• PSA, for men 40 and older
• Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)

Depending on your history and symptoms, Dr. Mackey may also order SHBG, LH, FSH, prolactin or cortisol. Additional tests may carry separate charges.

A morning draw is preferred because testosterone is typically highest early in the day. Fasting is not required. If you already have recent results from an accredited laboratory, NovaGenix can review them, and Dr. Mackey will decide whether they are current and complete enough to use.

Treatment Options and Side Effects

If TRT is appropriate, the most common options are testosterone cypionate injections and daily testosterone cream or gel. Testosterone enanthate, oral testosterone, hCG and enclomiphene are also options, depending on your situation and goals. NovaGenix does not offer testosterone pellets, because the dose can't be adjusted once a pellet is inserted. How a man responds varies, and your plan is adjusted based on follow-up labs and how you feel.

Like any prescription medication, TRT can cause side effects. Those that are monitored include:

• Acne
• Breast tenderness or enlargement (gynecomastia)
• Increased red blood cell production (higher hematocrit)
• Decreased testicular size
• Reduced sperm production

These are the reasons monitoring is part of every NovaGenix TRT program. For more, see high hematocrit on TRT.

What TRT Costs at NovaGenix

NovaGenix is a direct self-pay practice and does not bill insurance.

• TRT programs start at $129 per month. Some plans reach $299 per month when additional medications are prescribed.
• The program includes consultations with Dr. Mackey, lab review and interpretation, the medication in your quoted plan, supplies, shipping, and ongoing follow-up.
• Laboratory testing is billed separately. The male hormone panel is $125.
• There is no startup fee. NovaGenix asks for 30 days' notice to cancel.

NovaGenix will work with a patient to create a superbill if requested. Depending on your plan, you may be able to pay with an HSA or FSA.

For the full breakdown, see TRT cost and pricing.

In the Office or by Telehealth

Every NovaGenix patient can be seen in person at the Jupiter office. Telehealth is offered in addition, when Dr. Mackey determines it is clinically appropriate for your situation, a decision made case by case after evaluation.

Telehealth changes where the conversation happens. It does not remove the steps responsible treatment requires: laboratory testing, a physician evaluation, a valid prescription, and ongoing monitoring. For more, see online TRT in Florida.
