How is this legal under contract law?

They extend an offer, you agree the price, you agree to buy and they sell. But they're suggesting that you buy, and consume the product, before agreeing a price?

Is it just that they don't know what's happening at the doctors? ie, they could offer a base price of $X per 15 minute appointment; $Y for writing a prescription; $Z for referring on for other tests?

Or can they not even tell you how much a basic 15 minute consultation would cost?

Like so many things, I probably could get my answer if I was prepared to fight for it. But since I have insurance, and I'll eventually pay out my deductible and out of pocket maximum, it's just not worth the fight, no matter how wrong this is.

In a way it's a very small version of someone suing me, and I settle even though I know I could win. Cost/benefit, and the game is rigged against me.

Insurance is the root of all health care evil.

Pretty much anything custom-made works like that (have you never bought bespoke furniture?) - the seller will do the work and then bill you for how much it turned out to cost. You can sue them if it's unreasonable.
