Core Primary Care
Verified listingAbout Core Primary Care
Core Primary Care runs a medical weight-loss clinic in Sugar Land as part of a primary-care practice serving Sugar Land and the greater Houston area. It's a good fit if you'd rather get weight-loss care from a primary-care office than a standalone med spa. The clinic offers a free consultation, and it works with insurance in some cases.
On pricing, the site is unusually candid for this category. It states that GLP-1 medication, paid self-pay without insurance, runs $900 to $1,400. Note that this is the medication component only; the site's FAQ describes a fuller self-pay total in the range of $1,000 to $1,600 per month split across separate line items, but only the contiguous medication figure is confirmed here, so ask for the full monthly total. On insurance, the clinic notes that many plans now cover GLP-1 weight-loss medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide when medically indicated, typically when BMI exceeds 30, or exceeds 27 with a weight-related condition such as type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure.
The weight-loss medications named are semaglutide and tirzepatide. Beyond weight loss, the broader practice offers diabetes management, health coaching, Medicare annual wellness visits, mental health and psychiatry, telemedicine, physicals, women's wellness exams, acute illness care, and aesthetic services including laser treatments, Botox, fillers, tattoo removal, and laser hair removal.
The clinic is at 20403 University Blvd, Suite 400, Sugar Land, TX 77478. Office hours are not stated on the captured pages, so call to confirm them.
A few gaps: no individual provider is named on the pages reviewed, only "our team" and "board-certified physicians," since the providers page wasn't captured, so you'll want to ask who you'll see. The practice describes "nearly five decades" of history, but that refers to the Sugar Land office's community tenure, not necessarily how long this weight-loss program has run. Telehealth states aren't listed. Your first questions: the complete monthly self-pay cost, whether your insurance will cover the medication, and who provides the care.
