What is The Wellness Co.?
The Wellness Co. is a clinical wellness and medical aesthetics practice at 9658 Mission Gorge Rd in Santee, California. It has been open since 2002 and calls itself nurse practitioner led. Dawn Philp, FNP, FNP-BC is the prescriber named for the practice.
Much of its menu is aesthetics and IV work: Botox and Dysport, Morpheus8, dermal fillers, IV therapy, SoftWave Therapy and vitamin injections. Weight, hormone and peptide care sit alongside those. The weight program names Phentermine and Adipex, HCG on 20-day and 40-day protocols, and the peptides AOD-9604 and MOTS-C. Hormone care covers bioidentical hormones for women, testosterone therapy for men, and thyroid optimization for both. It says it does not prescribe GLP-1 medications such as semaglutide.
Its CLARITY membership starts with a 42-biomarker lab panel and adjusts the protocol over time. Its Google listing shows a 4.9 rating from 37 reviews. In its own words: "We don't prescribe willpower. We prescribe precision."
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices for weight loss, hormone therapy, peptides or CLARITY. Its own structured data gives a price range of $$ to $$$, a rough scale with no dollar amounts. The consultation and the free lab review cost nothing. The clinic does not say whether medication is included in program costs, whether insurance is accepted, or how cancellation works.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask whether Dawn Philp personally reviews and signs off on weight, hormone and peptide prescriptions, and who handles follow-up between visits. Ask whether the monthly fee covers the medication or bills it separately. Ask whether the Phentermine, HCG and peptides are brand-name or compounded, and where they are sourced, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Ask whether the weight program requires a CLARITY membership, and what labs and follow-up visits cost on top of it. Confirm insurance, telehealth and office hours, since none are listed. Finally, ask how a membership is canceled and whether unused months are refunded.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you live near Santee or East County, want hormone, weight and peptide care from a nurse practitioner led practice, and are ready to pay out of pocket once the full price is in writing. It is not the right fit if you want a GLP-1 medication such as semaglutide, since the clinic does not prescribe them.
