Am I a Candidate?

What Makes Someone a Candidate?
Candidacy is different for each service. Here is what Dr. Jaqua actually looks for — so you know what to expect before you walk in.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy
TRT is for men whose blood work confirms clinically low testosterone alongside symptoms that affect daily life. Both halves matter — we treat confirmed deficiency, not a number in isolation and not symptoms without labs.
Common indicators
- •Persistent fatigue that rest does not resolve
- •Loss of muscle tone or increased body fat despite unchanged habits
- •Low libido or erectile difficulty
- •Difficulty concentrating, low mood, or irritability
- •A morning total testosterone result below the clinical reference range
Dr. Jaqua reviews a full hormone panel — not testosterone alone — before recommending treatment.
Medical Weight Loss (GLP-1)
GLP-1 medications such as semaglutide and tirzepatide are prescribed for patients who meet clinical criteria and have found that diet and exercise alone have not produced durable results.
Common indicators
- •A BMI of 30 or above, or 27 and above with a weight-related condition
- •Weight regain after previous diets
- •A weight-related diagnosis such as prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or sleep apnea
- •Readiness for a medically supervised programme with regular follow-up
Candidacy is confirmed with labs and a medical history review. Some conditions — including a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma — rule out GLP-1 therapy.
Peptide Therapy
Peptide protocols are considered for adults seeking support with recovery, sleep quality and body composition, under physician direction and with appropriate monitoring.
Common indicators
- •Slow recovery from training or injury
- •Poor sleep quality affecting daytime function
- •Interest in physician-directed rather than unsupervised protocols
- •Willingness to complete baseline labs before starting
Peptides are prescribed off-label at physician discretion through a licensed compounding pharmacy. We will tell you plainly what the evidence does and does not support.
IV Vitamin Therapy
IV therapy has the broadest candidacy of anything we offer. Most healthy adults are suitable, and it is the one service that does not require prior lab work.
Common indicators
- •Dehydration, illness recovery, or post-event depletion
- •Fatigue with a suspected nutritional component
- •Athletic recovery and hydration support
- •Immune support during high-demand periods
Patients with kidney disease, heart failure, or certain electrolyte disorders need clearance first. Tell us your history at intake.
What Happens After the Screener
The questionnaire is a starting point, not a diagnosis. Here is the actual path from screening to treatment.
- 1
Free consultation
We review your symptoms, health history and goals with you. There is no charge and no obligation to proceed.

Labs drawn on site
Bloodwork is taken in the clinic rather than sent to an outside facility. Results are typically back the following day.
- 3
Dr. Jaqua reviews your results
A physician — not an algorithm and not a sales team — decides whether treatment is clinically appropriate for you.
- 4
Treatment begins, often within 24–48 hours
If you are a candidate and you choose to proceed, we can usually start straight away, with follow-up scheduled to track your response.
