About Bakersfield Concierge and Longevity Medicine

What is Bakersfield Concierge and Longevity Medicine?

Bakersfield Concierge and Longevity Medicine is a membership practice at 5500 Ming Avenue, Suite 320, Bakersfield, CA 93309. The phone number is (661) 368-8828. Dr. Catherine Leng Venugopal, DO, founded it and is the only prescriber named. She has provided care in the Central Valley since 2017. The clinic has 5 stars from 10 Google reviews.

Mainly, it is a direct primary care practice with longevity testing added. Its services are direct primary care, chronic care (including diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disorders and weight management), same-day acute visits, and longevity and advanced diagnostics such as biomarker testing and a hormone and metabolic optimization review. Members can reach the physician by phone, text or email. The clinic lists StemWave Therapy as a service but does not say what it is. No weight-loss medication is named. In its own words: "Membership is limited to maintain our commitment to discretion and medical excellence."

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. The membership fee, the consultation fee and the cost of any medication are all missing, so you will need to get those from the clinic directly. Membership services are cash pay: "We do not bill insurance for membership services." The clinic asks members to keep PPO coverage for services outside the practice, including diagnostic imaging, specialists and hospital care. It does not say whether the monthly fee includes medication, and it does not state the membership length or cancellation terms.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask what the monthly membership fee is and what it covers. Ask whether it includes medication, lab work and the longevity panels, and whether a consultation costs extra. If weight management is your goal, ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded, and who writes and signs the prescription. Ask what StemWave Therapy is, what it costs, and whether it is part of membership.

Then ask how long the commitment runs, how to cancel, and what follow-up visits, lab work and imaging cost. Ask whether visits happen in person, by phone or by video, and ask for office hours, since none are listed. Membership is limited and the clinic is registering interest for Summer 2026, so ask whether a place is open now and when one would open.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want one physician for primary care and longevity testing, can pay a monthly membership out of pocket, and plan to keep your insurance for specialists, imaging and hospital care. If you need a price before you call, or you expect the membership to cover your medication, get those answers in writing before you commit.
