What is 18 Temple Wellness?
18 Temple Wellness is a cash-pay medical weight loss and peptide therapy practice at 171 Saxony Road, Suite 210, in Encinitas, California. It was formerly known as California Trim Rx. Its main service is medical weight loss with GLP-1 medication, and the medications it names are semaglutide and tirzepatide. It also offers peptide therapy, sorted into anti-aging and collagen, rapid recovery and repair, and metabolic and hormonal balance. The peptides it lists include NAD+, BPC-157, GHK-Cu and CJC/Ipamorelin. Consultations can take place in the office or virtually.
No individual prescriber is named. The practice describes review by a physician or licensed provider, but no name or license is given. Google lists it as a weight loss service with a rating of 3.4 from 5 reviews. The office is open Monday through Thursday, 8:30am to 5pm, with Friday and Saturday by appointment and Sunday closed.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices. The first consultation is free and carries no obligation, and the practice states that there are no monthly membership fees. In its own words: "No Monthly Membership Fees." The doctor consult and medication are described as included, and delivery is described as free, but no monthly figure is given for any program. It has a payment plans section, but no terms are shown. It does not say whether it accepts insurance or HSA funds.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who writes the prescription, and get that person's name and license in writing before your first visit. Ask for the full monthly price, and whether it covers the medication, follow-up check-ins and lab work. Ask whether the GLP-1 medication is brand-name or compounded. The home page refers to a new approved medication, while the disclaimer reads: "Compounded GLP-1 medications are not FDA-approved products." Get a direct answer for the exact product you would receive. Ask which pharmacy fills the peptide orders, since the practice says its peptides are compounded at an FDA registered pharmacy. Finally, ask how to cancel, whether shipments renew automatically, and what happens to your plan if you stop.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a medication-based weight loss program paid in cash, can get a written monthly price and a named prescriber before you commit, and are comfortable with a virtual consult if the Encinitas office is far. It is a weaker fit if you need an insurance answer or a published price before booking. If you are mainly interested in the peptide blends, ask who prescribes each one and which pharmacy compounds it before you pay anything.
