About SLENDER ME MEDICAL

What is Slender Me Medical?

Slender Me Medical is a weight loss and aesthetics practice with locations in Corona, California and Scottsdale, Arizona, open since 2011. It describes itself as a family clinic that is DO and NP owned, and it runs weight loss, hormone therapy, peptide, and longevity services alongside a full menu of aesthetic treatments like Botox and dermal fillers. For weight loss, it prescribes oral Wegovy, Wegovy injection, Zepbound (Kwikpen or vial), phentermine, and a Foundayo tablet, paired with vitamin injections and nutritional counseling. Hormone replacement therapy is offered for both men and women, including testosterone therapy and menopause and perimenopause care, in Corona and by telehealth in states where its providers are licensed. On the longevity and peptide side, it lists NAD+ therapy, glutathione, and Sermorelin. In Corona, patients can get everything in person, including phentermine, which it states cannot be prescribed through telehealth because it is a controlled substance; telehealth visits are managed with GLP-1 and oral options instead. In its own words: "The same program we run in our Corona office, delivered by video."

This listing is for its Corona office at 2083 Compton Ave STE 101.

What does it cost?

The published price is a $125 a month membership for the weight loss program, with medication billed separately by the pharmacy. That fee is described for the oral Wegovy option and appears to apply to the medication management memberships generally, covering an initial consultation and medical clearance plus monthly access to medical staff. It does not state whether that initial visit is bundled into the $125 or billed on top of it. No consultation fee is published separately, and there is no stated policy on insurance, financing, or how to cancel the membership.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs the prescription, since no prescriber is named for either location. Ask whether the $125 monthly fee includes your first visit or only the follow-up months, and get the all in monthly number once medication is added, since that is billed separately by the pharmacy or by the manufacturer's self pay program. If you are a telehealth patient and a standard dose does not work for you, ask directly whether what you would be prescribed is an FDA approved product or a compounded one from a 503A pharmacy, and what that costs. Ask what the membership commitment is and how to cancel, since no term length is published. If you want phentermine or another controlled substance, confirm you will need to be seen in person in Corona, since telehealth cannot prescribe those. Ask whether your insurance is accepted for any part of the visit, since none is stated either way.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a long running local practice in the Corona or Scottsdale area that treats weight loss, hormones, and aesthetics under one roof, and you are comfortable asking for the prescriber's name and the full monthly cost before you commit. It is less of a fit if you are looking for a published price that already includes medication, or you need everything handled remotely including controlled substances.
