What is Centro Medico Community Clinic?
Centro Medico Community Clinic is a non-profit, federally qualified health center look-alike that has been serving Riverside County and the surrounding area since it was founded in 2000 by Dr. Bebawy and Dr. Saied. It is a full community health practice, not a weight loss specialist: alongside weight loss, it offers medical, dental, chiropractic, behavioral health, acupuncture, vision and IV therapy under one roof. It has locations across Corona, Riverside, Inglewood, Northridge, Phelan, Pomona and Los Angeles, and offers telehealth visits for both new and existing patients, including medication prescribed virtually.
For weight loss specifically, it describes a program that pairs PNOE metabolic testing, provider coaching, and prescription medication for qualifying patients, naming Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy, and semaglutide or tirzepatide based therapies as options. It states that prescriptions are monitored by licensed medical providers, though it does not name which providers staff the weight loss program specifically.
This listing is for its Ste. A1 Phelan office at 3936 Phelan Rd..
What does it cost?
No prices are published for the weight loss program, the consultation, the metabolic testing, or any of the medications named. The clinic does state that it accepts insurance and operates a sliding fee schedule for other services, and that it is a 501(c)(3) health center serving patients regardless of ability to pay, but it does not say whether that sliding scale or insurance applies to weight loss visits or medication. If you are considering this program, ask directly what the visit, testing, and prescription will cost you out of pocket.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask which location actually runs the weight loss program, since the medication and testing are described on a general services page rather than tied to one site. Ask who will see you and write the prescription, since no prescriber is named for this service. Ask whether the fee, if any, includes the medication itself or just the visit, and whether the drug would be brand-name Ozempic, Mounjaro, or Wegovy versus a compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide product. Ask what the PNOE metabolic testing costs separately, how often follow-up visits happen, and whether insurance or the sliding fee schedule applies to any part of the program. If you plan to use telehealth, ask whether the same prescribing and monitoring process applies virtually as in person.
Who is it a good fit for?
In its own words: "CMCC strives to expand access to care and promote the welfare of our communities through collaboration and creativity."
This is a good fit for someone who already wants a community health clinic for broader primary, dental or behavioral care and would consider weight loss medication as one more service within that same relationship, rather than someone looking for a clinic built solely around GLP-1 prescribing with published pricing up front.
