What is University Place Medical Clinic?
University Place Medical Clinic is a private family and internal medicine practice at 4114 Bridgeport Way W., University Place, WA 98466. It serves University Place and the Greater Tacoma area. Its prescribers are Tiffany Friesen, MD, and Mara Young, ARNP. Its own description mentions decades of experience in patient-centered health care.
Medical weight loss is one of several services. The others include women's health, physical and annual exams, DOT exams, joint pain injections, Botox & Filler, Emsella, hair loss treatment and physical therapy. The weight loss program uses semaglutide and tirzepatide injections. The weight loss page also names Wegovy, Ozempic and Mounjaro as related medicines. Hormone therapy is listed under women's health with no further detail. It does not describe peptide therapy or a longevity program.
In its own words: "Unlike many other clinics and hospitals, our providers are under no pressure to see a patient within a short time period."
It has a Google rating of 4.1 from 134 reviews. It is open Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm, with a lunch closure from 12:00pm to 1:00pm, and it is closed on weekends. The phone number is (253) 564-4157.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices. It does not say whether medication is included in any price, and it does not state a consultation fee. Its listing carries a $$ price range, with no dollar figures behind it.
Insurance does not cover weight loss injections, so expect to pay for them in cash. The weight loss page says detailed pricing and payment plans are reviewed at a private consultation, but it gives no terms. Insurance also does not cover the DOT exam. It does not say whether insurance is accepted for weight loss visits, and it does not describe cancellation terms.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask which prescriber runs the weight loss program. The clinic does not say, and it has two prescribers. Ask whether the monthly or per-visit price includes the medication or whether it is billed separately. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded.
Ask what the consultation costs, and what follow-up visits and lab work cost. Ask whether any visit can be done by video, since the clinic does not say. Ask how cancellation works and whether a fee applies. If hormone therapy interests you, ask what it involves, who prescribes it and what it costs. Call (253) 564-4157 and ask for these answers in writing before you schedule a consultation.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a family medicine practice that also runs a medical weight loss program, and you are ready to confirm the price, the prescriber and the medication details before you book. It is a weaker match if you need published prices, telehealth, or a peptide or longevity program, since none of these is described.
