What is California Medical Weight Loss?
California Medical Weight Loss is a medical weight loss clinic with offices in Cerritos, Glendale, Santa Monica, Torrance, Costa Mesa, Northridge and Montebello, all in Southern California. The prescription medications it names are phentermine, phendimetrazine and diethylpropion, which are appetite suppressants, and HCG. It also offers vitamin B12 and lipotropics, which can be given as injections or taken as pills. Its home page lists Meyer's Cocktail Therapy and Glutathione plus Vitamin C Therapy as well.
The clinic does not name the physician who prescribes. It says care comes from its team of licensed providers. In its own words: "Our licensed physician or physician assistants can help you achieve your weight loss goals." It reports 15 years of experience and a 4.1 rating on Google from 13 reviews. New patients book by appointment only. Returning patients can come in without one, but the clinic asks you to call if it has been more than one year since your last visit.
This listing is for its Glendale office at 413 S Central Ave A.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices, a consultation fee, or membership terms. It does not say whether medication is included in any monthly cost, whether it accepts insurance, or whether telehealth is offered. Ask for the price of your first visit and what it covers before you book.
Its fine print says prescriptions follow an examination, any needed testing or labs, and a medical consultation, and that prescriptions are made at the provider's discretion. It also says results are not guaranteed.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who will sign your prescription and whether you will see that same person at your first visit, since no one is named. Ask whether any monthly fee includes the medication, and whether that medication is a brand name drug or compounded. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, and how often they are required.
The clinic's HCG description says the program requires a very low calorie diet, so ask who sets that diet and who checks on it. Ask whether there is a contract or membership, how you cancel, and whether the office bills insurance. Check hours before you go. Most offices list Monday to Friday hours of 8:30am to 7:00pm, but the Costa Mesa, Northridge and Montebello offices list weekday hours for Monday, Wednesday and Friday only. Saturday hours are 8:30am to 4:00pm at all of them.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you can pay cash, live near one of the towns listed, and want the prescriber's name and the full cost in writing before you commit. If you need insurance billing, telehealth, or a named prescriber, call first and ask.
