Center for Medical Weight Loss

About Center for Medical Weight Loss

What is Center for Medical Weight Loss?

Center for Medical Weight Loss is run out of Huntsville Hospital. It is inside the Huntsville Hospital Medical Mall at 1963 Memorial Parkway, Suite 16B, Huntsville, AL 35801. Office hours are Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., and visits are by appointment only.

Its team includes a physician, a dietitian, a therapist and a nurse practitioner, but it does not name who writes prescriptions. It offers Oral Wegovy as a daily pill, plus the injectable Wegovy and Zepbound. Its meal-replacement programs are split by BMI: the full program and the Partial Plan are for a BMI over 30, and TRIM programs are for a BMI under 30. Visits can be in person or virtual check-ins from home.

This listing is for its Hazel Green office at 13596 Hwy 231 431 N #4.

What does it cost?

Oral Wegovy starts at $149 a month for self-pay, and insurance can bring it to as little as $25 a month. Without insurance, Wegovy runs $199 to $349 a month and Zepbound runs $299 to $449 a month. Prices vary by dose, and the clinic uses discount pharmacies for the injectables.

It does not say whether the medication is included in the $149 price. It does not publish prices for the full program, the Partial Plan or TRIM programs, or a consultation fee, and it does not say which insurance plans it accepts. Huntsville Hospital employees get 20% off program fees.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs the prescription and whether that person sees you in person or by video. Ask whether the $149 price covers the medication or whether the pharmacy bills you separately, and which plans the $25 insurance price depends on.

In its own words: "We only prescribe FDA-approved, commercial medications." Ask whether that means the brand-name product, and where it is filled.

Ask what the screening call, follow-up visits and bloodwork cost, since the clinic describes regular check-ins and bloodwork without giving prices. Ask how cancellation works and whether program fees are refunded if you stop partway through.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a hospital-based clinic in Huntsville, can keep to Tuesday or Wednesday daytime hours or do virtual check-ins, and want the prescriber and total price confirmed before you pay. It is a weaker fit if you need evening or weekend appointments, or one clear monthly price up front.
