Treatments We Use at Sanara Medicine

Traditional Hormone Replacement Therapy

Conventional hormone replacement therapy restores declining estrogen, progesterone, or testosterone using FDA-approved pharmaceutical formulations. Sanara Medicine doctors prescribe traditional HRT when standardized dosing and established safety profiles align with a patient's clinical picture.

Traditional HRT remains the gold standard for managing vasomotor symptoms during menopause. Your physician monitors labs and adjusts dosing at regular intervals to maintain therapeutic levels.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy

Bioidentical hormones are plant-derived compounds structurally identical to hormones produced by the human body. This molecular match allows the body to metabolize them through the same pathways as endogenous hormones.

Sanara Medicine physicians prescribe bioidentical HRT through compounding pharmacies when a patient's needs fall outside standard commercial formulations. Every prescription follows evidence-based protocols with ongoing lab monitoring.

Pellet Therapy

Hormone pellet therapy delivers a sustained, consistent release of bioidentical hormones through a small pellet implanted beneath the skin. The procedure takes minutes in the Sanara Medicine Lodi office and provides stable hormone levels for three to six months.

Pellet therapy eliminates the daily dosing variability of creams, patches, or oral medications. Sanara Medicine doctors use pellet therapy when patients need steady-state hormone delivery without the peaks and valleys of other administration methods.

GLP-1 Medications

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists are injectable medications that regulate appetite, blood sugar, and metabolic function. GLP-1 medications work by mimicking a naturally occurring hormone that signals satiety to the brain while slowing gastric emptying.

Sanara Medicine prescribes GLP-1 medications only when clinically appropriate for metabolic health and weight management. Your physician evaluates metabolic markers, hormonal status, and overall health before determining whether GLP-1 therapy fits your treatment plan.

PRP and Regenerative Medicine

Platelet-rich plasma therapy concentrates the healing factors from your own blood and delivers them directly to targeted tissues. PRP harnesses your body's natural regenerative capacity to stimulate tissue repair, collagen production, and cellular renewal.

Sanara Medicine uses PRP for applications where regenerative medicine provides measurable clinical benefit. Each treatment begins with a blood draw, followed by centrifugation to isolate the platelet-rich fraction, then precise application to the treatment site.

Vaginal Laser Procedures

Vaginal laser therapy uses controlled thermal energy to stimulate collagen remodeling and mucosal regeneration in vaginal and urogenital tissues. This non-surgical procedure addresses changes that occur with estrogen decline during perimenopause and menopause.

Sanara Medicine offers vaginal laser procedures as part of a comprehensive approach to urogenital health. Dr. Gill's dual expertise in integrative medicine and aesthetics — as a Fellow of Aesthetic Medicine and Fellow of ASLMS — informs the clinical application of laser technology for functional restoration.
