Product Description

HealingMaps Take: Chattanooga’s EvexiPEL-certified GLP-1 and hormone wellness practice — Sharlotte Manley FNP-C and Amber Smith FNP-C offer Semaglutide, Tirzepatide and bioidentical hormone pellet therapy (EvexiPEL certified) under Medical Director Dr. Sujay Kumar MD at the Mackey Branch Drive practice, applying an integrative “body as a whole” wellness philosophy opened in 2023. Sharlotte Manley, MSN, FNP-C leads the clinical team and protocols are tailored to each patient’s goals after consultation.

Lavender Medi Spa offers 6 specific peptide compounds (BPC-157, TB-500, CJC-1295, Sermorelin, Semaglutide, and Tirzepatide), placing it in the top half of the 20+ Tennessee peptide clinics in our directory (the median clinic menu offers 6 compounds; the deepest offers 17). The clinic is physician-led (MD or DO); about a third of Tennessee peptide clinics in our directory are.

Who Will Prescribe Your Peptides?

Your prescribing provider, Dr. Sharlotte Manley, is verified in the federal CMS National Plan & Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) under NPI 1457843781, with a primary specialty of Nurse Practitioner, Family and a primary practice address in Chattanooga, TN. CMS records show this NPI has been active since 2018. NPPES record verified 2026-06-01. Dr. Sharlotte Manley’s NPI tenure is shorter-tenured than most of the 8 Tennessee peptide providers we’ve verified in NPPES (longest-tenured peer registered in 2005; cohort median 2015).

What this means for you: In the US, any actively state-licensed physician can legally prescribe compounded peptides — board certification in a specific specialty isn’t required for peptide prescriptions.

Typical Peptide Therapy Cost in the U.S.

National peptide therapy pricing — based on 487 verified peptide clinics in our directory (April 2026 data). Adjust the calculator below to model your own protocol.

What to Expect at Your First Lavender Medi Spa Appointment

1. Initial consultation / intake — typically 30–60 minutes reviewing medical history, goals, current medications, and prior labs.
2. Baseline lab work — most clinics require labs before prescribing growth-hormone secretagogues (CJC-1295/Ipamorelin, Sermorelin) and GLP-1s (semaglutide, tirzepatide), since those compounds modulate endocrine and metabolic pathways. Tissue-repair peptides (BPC-157, TB-500), sexual-wellness peptides (PT-141), and topical compounds are sometimes prescribed without labs. This listing doesn’t explicitly state lab requirements, so confirm on your consult call which panels they require for your specific protocol. Even when labs aren’t strictly required, they’re a smart personal baseline. See our guide to peptide therapy lab work for what to ask about.
3. Protocol design — this listing publishes a deep menu (6 compounds, including BPC-157, TB-500, CJC-1295, Sermorelin, and others). Your provider narrows the protocol based on your goals, labs, and any contraindications.
4. Prescription written + sent to compounding pharmacy — The clinic doesn’t publicly state its 503A or 503B sourcing, so confirm fulfillment timing on your consult call (in-state-only vs. nationwide; compounded-after-Rx vs. pre-batched).
5. Self-administration training — for injectable peptides, the clinic walks you through subcutaneous injection technique, needle handling, refrigeration, and rotation sites.
6. Follow-up — typically a 4–6 week check-in to assess response, side effects, and whether dose or compound needs adjustment.

Most Lavender Medi Spa patients report the consult-to-first-injection window runs 1–3 weeks depending on lab turnaround and pharmacy fulfillment.

What to Ask on Your Lavender Medi Spa Consult Call

The questions below are pulled from the gaps in this specific listing — areas the clinic doesn’t publicly answer that you should clarify before booking. Each one is designed to get you a useful answer in 30 seconds or less.

• “Which of your peptides is most commonly prescribed for my goals?” Helps you understand whether the clinic’s expertise matches what you’re trying to achieve.
• “Is your compounding pharmacy 503A or 503B, and which specific pharmacy do you use?” The class affects whether your prescription is custom-compounded (503A) or pre-batched (503B), and whether they can ship across state lines.
• “How long has the clinical lead been prescribing peptides specifically?” A long medical career doesn’t always mean long peptide-specific experience — those are different track records.
• “Which lab panels do you require for the protocol you’d recommend for me?” Clinics typically require baseline labs for hormone-modulating compounds (semaglutide, tirzepatide, growth-hormone secretagogues) and may skip them for some tissue-repair or topical compounds. Knowing your clinic’s specific lab requirements helps you compare to peers — and even when not required, baseline labs are smart personal protection.
• “Is this entirely cash-pay, or do you accept any insurance for the GLP-1 path (semaglutide, tirzepatide)?” Compounded peptides are almost never covered, but brand-name GLP-1s sometimes are with prior authorization.
• “What’s the total first-month cost — consult fee, labs, and initial prescription combined?” First-month all-in is usually 1.5–2× the recurring monthly cost. Ask for an itemized breakdown.
• “Is follow-up telehealth-friendly, or are in-person visits required at every milestone?” The listing doesn’t mention telehealth — important to know if you travel or move.
• “From my consult to my first injection, how long is the typical timeline?” Lab turnaround + pharmacy fulfillment usually means 1–3 weeks. Confirms expectations.

Does Lavender Medi Spa offer telehealth or virtual visits?

Lavender Medi Spa doesn’t mention telehealth or virtual visits on its listing. Most peptide clinics require in-person evaluation for the initial consult; some offer virtual follow-ups once a patient is stable. If geography or travel matters to you, ask on the consult call whether they can prescribe and follow up virtually — and which states they’re licensed to do so in.

Compound depth is one signal among several — provider credentials, pharmacy sourcing transparency, and lab requirements also matter when comparing.

What Tennessee Peptide Patients Are Likely Asking

Themes drawn from HealingMaps editorial analysis of verified Tennessee peptide clinics in our directory. Refreshed quarterly; percentages rounded to nearest 5%.

Which peptides do most Tennessee clinics actually offer?

Across Tennessee peptide clinics in our directory, Semaglutide appears in 100% of listings; Tirzepatide in 100%; BPC-157 in 65%; Sermorelin in 60%. Compounds appearing in fewer than 20% of Tennessee listings — including MK-677, MOTS-c, Selank — are less commonly disclosed; patients seeking those should specifically ask whether the clinic prescribes them.

How transparent are Tennessee clinics about their compounding pharmacy?

20% of Tennessee clinics in our directory openly state whether they use a 503A or 503B compounding pharmacy. The rest leave the class unstated. The distinction matters for patients — 503A pharmacies fill prescriptions individually after your provider writes them (typically a few-day wait, in-state shipping), while 503B outsourcing facilities pre-batch under direct FDA inspection (often supporting same-visit fulfillment and direct-to-home shipping). Worth asking specifically before you book.

Who’s actually prescribing peptides in Tennessee?

40% of verified Tennessee clinics name an MD or DO as clinical lead (this listing’s clinical lead is Nurse Practitioner, Family-trained). The remainder are NP/PA-led or don’t publicly name a specific prescribing clinician. Any state-licensed physician, NP, or PA can legitimately prescribe compounded peptides — but knowing your prescriber’s training and tenure helps you assess fit for your specific protocol.

How deep are Tennessee peptide menus typically?

The median Tennessee clinic in our directory publishes 7 specific peptide compounds on its listing. The deepest disclosed menu names 17; every clinic names at least one compound. A wide menu means more options at one clinic; a narrow menu can reflect specialization (e.g. weight-loss-only programs) or limited public disclosure (the clinic prescribes more than it advertises).

Pharmacy sourcing: This clinic doesn’t state its 503A or 503B compounding pharmacy partner. The class affects how your prescription is fulfilled — custom-compounded with in-state shipping (503A) versus pre-batched with broader shipping including direct-to-home delivery (503B) — so it’s worth asking before starting any compounded protocol.

How we vetted this clinic

We confirmed Lavender Medi Spa’s named prescriber in CMS NPPES records. 6 peptide compounds on the menu — BPC-157, TB-500, and CJC-1295 among them. The clinic doesn’t specify pharmacy class (503A vs 503B) publicly — a reasonable thing to ask about before you book. See our full vetting rubric →
