What is ContinuEM?
ContinuEM is a walk-in urgent care clinic in Lakewood, California, at 6430 South Street, and GLP-1 weight loss is one of several services it runs alongside imaging, on-site labs, sports physicals, IV therapy and pediatric care. It offers semaglutide and tirzepatide, describing its program as "medically supervised" and run by "board-certified providers." You can start with an in-person provider evaluation, then choose weekly in-clinic injections or monthly home delivery, with follow-up through in-person or virtual visits. It keeps long hours, open weekdays from 8 AM to 11 PM and weekends from 10 AM to 6 PM, and also offers virtual visits for those who cannot come in.
This listing is for its Lakewood office at 6430 South Street.
What does it cost?
Its posted starting prices are $120 a month for injectable semaglutide, $256 a month for injectable tirzepatide, and $160 a month for oral semaglutide, on what it calls a 12-month plan. It says the final price depends on the medication and dose your physician confirms, so the starting number is not necessarily what you will pay. Consultation is free if you sign up for the program, otherwise $49. It does not take insurance for weight loss injections, so this is cash pay, and it offers Afterpay or Affirm for paying over time. Its separate urgent care side has a different pricing structure (a $99 upfront fee with insurance billed afterward, or a seasonal self-pay rate for general visits), which does not apply to the weight loss program.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask whether the quoted monthly price includes the medication itself or just the program, since this is not stated plainly. Ask who will actually sign your prescription, since no prescriber is named for you in advance. Ask whether your medication will be brand-name (Wegovy, Mounjaro) or a compounded version, since both semaglutide and tirzepatide are named without specifying which. Ask what the 12-month plan commits you to and how you would cancel it if the medication does not work for you or you want to stop. Ask what follow-up visits and any lab work cost beyond the monthly fee. You may also notice its weight loss page lists a different phone number than its main line, so confirm which one to use before you call.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a local, walk-in medical setting that already handles urgent care and you like the idea of same-day evaluation and in-person injections rather than a purely virtual relationship. It may be a weaker fit if you want a clinic whose main identity is weight loss specifically, or if you need firm answers on compounded versus brand-name medication and full program costs before you are willing to commit to a 12-month plan.
