About Conejo Valley Primary Healthcare

What is Conejo Valley Primary Healthcare?

Conejo Valley Primary Healthcare is a primary care practice at 1429 E Thousand Oaks Blvd, #108, in Thousand Oaks, California. Its main focus is women in midlife, with hormone health and nutrition at the center. The listed prescribers are Richard Park, MD, the Medical Director, and Lynn Coates-Leisen, MSN, FNP-C, MSCP, the Nurse Practitioner.

The clinic offers thyroid care, perimenopause and menopause care, general practice, hormones, weight management, proactive cardiovascular care, annual physicals, and Medicare Part B services. It does not list peptide therapy. Hormone work is central to the practice. In its own words: "Bioidentical Hormone management are our specialty." The weight program offers FDA approved GLP/GIP medications, other weight loss medications, or no medications. Visits are in person or by telehealth where appropriate within California. The practice has more than 40 years of expertise in the healthcare environment. Its Google listing shows a rating of 5 from 5 reviews.

What does it cost?

Weight management plans start at $399 for 3 months. The clinic also lists 4 and 6 month plans, and plans are available with and without medication. It does not say whether medication is included in the $399 price. It does not publish prices for hormone therapy, thyroid care, or annual physicals. The first step is a free 10 minute phone consultation, a brief look at your health concerns. It does not state its cancellation terms.

The clinic is out of network with all commercial insurance plans. It bills Traditional Medicare Part B on your behalf for covered services, though you may be asked to sign an ABN form, which warns you when Medicare may not pay for a service. For other services, it gives you a superbill to send to your own insurer. Some weight loss and hormone services may not be covered by insurance.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs your prescription and who handles your follow-up visits, Dr. Park or Ms. Coates-Leisen. Ask whether the $399 starting price includes the medication, and if not, what the medication costs on top. Ask which weight loss medications are prescribed and whether each is a brand-name product. For hormones, ask whether the products are brand-name or compounded.

Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, and which of those Medicare will pay for. Ask how you cancel a 3, 4 or 6 month plan and whether any unused time is refunded. The clinic does not list office hours, so ask when the phone is answered and when visits are held.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you are a woman in midlife looking for hormone, thyroid, or menopause care from a primary care practice that also runs weight plans, or if you have Traditional Medicare and want a practice that bills it for covered visits. If you need a clinic that publishes every price or offers peptide therapy, this one will not match that search.
