Hormones are crucial for your overall health and well-being. When they fall out of balance, it affects your energy, mood, libido, mental clarity, and more. Our bioidentical hormone replacement therapy in Gilbert addresses the root cause of hormonal imbalance using plant-derived pellets inserted under the skin.
The bioidentical hormone program at our Gilbert office is led by Chad Dance, FNP-C, MSN, MS, whose five-plus years of ICU experience at a Level II trauma center means your treatment plan is built on clinical rigor, not wellness marketing. Lab work first, then a treatment plan. We will not prescribe hormones without baseline labs and a clinical evaluation.
To get started, call (480) 499-4441 or request a consultation.
Hormones control a huge amount of what your body does day to day. When levels drop or fall out of balance, the downstream effects show up as fatigue, mood changes, loss of libido, trouble sleeping, mental fog, and more. There is a solution that can get your body back on track.
Our bioidentical treatment consists of inserting bioidentical hormone pellets under the skin. These pellets come from plants and are a natural therapy option for those who want to reduce migraines, anxiety, depression, low libido, and more caused by hormonal imbalance.
Unlike synthetic hormone alternatives, bioidentical hormones are structurally identical to the ones your body naturally produces. For most patients, that translates to fewer side effects and a smoother experience.
Bioidentical hormone pellets work for both women and men dealing with hormonal imbalance. If you are struggling with fatigue, mood changes, low libido, migraines, or difficulty maintaining energy throughout the day, bioidentical replacement may provide meaningful relief.
Most patients who succeed with bioidentical therapy at our Gilbert office share three things. They have specific, persistent symptoms, not vague wellness goals. They want a steady-state option rather than daily pills or weekly injections. They want a provider willing to say "your numbers are normal, let's look elsewhere" when the data points that way.
If your labs come back normal and your symptoms point elsewhere, we will say so. That is the clinical standard at Keystone.
Here is how bioidentical hormone pellets work at our Gilbert office, what they treat, what to expect, and who they are built for. Your provider will walk you through the specifics during your consultation.
Our bioidentical treatment consists of inserting bioidentical hormone pellets under the skin in the hip area. Once inserted, they release small amounts of hormones (estrogen, testosterone, etc.) into the bloodstream and start to balance the hormones immediately.
The pellets come from plants, which is why we call them bioidentical. They are a natural therapy option for patients looking to address hormonal imbalance without synthetic alternatives.
Bioidentical hormone pellets are used at our Gilbert office to help patients experiencing symptoms of low or unbalanced hormones. The pillar conditions we address include:
If any of this sounds familiar, bioidentical hormone replacement may help you get back to feeling like yourself.
Within days of treatment, you can expect to see positive changes. After a few weeks, your symptoms will dissipate. Patients report feeling more refreshed and energized, better mental clarity, a stronger sex drive, and an increased sense of well-being.
Pellets release hormones steadily over several months, so there are no daily pills, patches, or injection schedules to manage once inserted.
Bioidentical hormone pellets work for both women and men dealing with hormone imbalance. For women, they are often used around perimenopause and menopause. For men, they are a steady-state alternative to weekly testosterone injections.
Candidate selection depends on your lab work, symptoms, and medical history. Your provider will determine whether bioidentical pellets are the right fit during your consultation.

Bioidentical hormone pellet pricing is detailed on our services pricing page. Pricing varies based on dosing and the number of pellets required.
Insurance generally does not cover bioidentical hormone replacement because the compounded formulations are not FDA-approved. Keystone is an out-of-network practice and does not bill insurance directly. Patients use HSA, FSA, or financing through Cherry.
Your first visit takes about 45 minutes. Your provider reviews your medical history, current symptoms, and goals. Baseline lab work is ordered to measure your actual hormone levels before any pellets are prescribed.
Once your labs are back, you return for a follow-up visit to review results and discuss whether bioidentical pellets are the right fit. If your provider determines pellet therapy is appropriate, insertion can be scheduled at that visit or shortly after.
The insertion itself is a quick in-office procedure. The pellets are placed under the skin in the hip area through a small incision. Most patients return to normal activities the same day with minor movement restrictions for 72 hours.
Chad Dance, FNP-C, MSN, MS, is the lead Family Nurse Practitioner at our Gilbert office. Chad received his master's degree as a nurse practitioner over eight years ago from the University of Phoenix. Before that, he graduated from Idaho State University with his nursing degree and immediately began working as a nurse in the ICU at a Level II trauma center in Idaho, where he spent more than five years caring for critically ill medical, surgical, neurological, and open-heart surgery patients.
After moving to Arizona, Chad continued his nursing career in the ICU while also gaining experience as a charge nurse, preceptor for nursing students, and trainer of new hires into the ICU. Chad has extensive knowledge across all aspects of medicine including overall health and wellness, pain management, and trauma. That clinical foundation matters for hormone work, where labs, symptoms, and medical history have to be weighed together.
