About Skinny Me Med
What is Skinny Me Med?
Skinny Me Med is a medical weight loss practice with offices in Van Nuys, Canoga Park and Los Angeles. Dr. Payman Joseph, MD, is the physician who prescribes. He founded the practice and has dedicated over 20 years to working with women in his OB/GYN practice in Los Angeles. In its own words: "Skinny Me Med is a licensed medical practice providing in-person consultations and treatments, not an internet pharmacy." The Los Angeles office is temporarily closed.
Weight loss is what the practice mainly does. Its weight loss services are a GLP-1 semaglutide program, prescription appetite suppressants, the OPTIFAST 12-week meal replacement program, and a Sermorelin weight loss management program. Its other services are SculpSure body contouring, anti-aging, vitamin cocktails, and vitamin injection and IV programs. Virtual consultations are offered, and medication can be shipped to your home. Google reviews give the practice a 4.9 rating from 84 reviews.
This listing is for its Van Nuys office at 7232 Van Nuys Blvd #102.
What does it cost?
The one price given is a one-time consultation fee of $100. Every client must have that consultation before starting the semaglutide program. No price is given for semaglutide or any other service, so call (877) 991-1191 for current semaglutide pricing and promotions. Nothing says whether medication is included in any price, or whether insurance is accepted. Shipped medication carries a fee based on your location, but no amount is given. Membership terms and cancellation rules are not described.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who signs the prescription. Only Dr. Joseph's MD is given, and the semaglutide consultation is with one of the practice's providers, so ask who that will be and what credentials they hold. Ask whether the program price includes the semaglutide, and what the medication costs on its own. The injections include added vitamin B12, so ask whether the semaglutide is the brand-name product or a compounded version.
Ask what follow-up visits, weekly weigh-ins and lab work cost. Every program includes one-on-one nutritional coaching and weekly weigh-ins, but no fee is given for them. Medication is dispensed from the office and can also be shipped, so ask which applies to you and what the shipping fee is. Ask what the anti-aging program includes, since it has no description. Ask whether insurance is accepted, how cancellation and refunds work, and which office you would book with while the Los Angeles office is closed.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you can pay cash, want a physician-led weight loss program built around semaglutide, and are willing to call for pricing before you book. It may not suit you if you need a published price in writing before you talk to anyone.
