About Medical Institute of Healthy Aging

What is Medical Institute of Healthy Aging?

Medical Institute of Healthy Aging, also called MIHA, is a physician-led practice focused on longevity and healthy aging medicine. It has an in-person office in Walnut Creek, California. Dr. Paul H. Kim, MD, is the founder and medical director, described as a board-certified physician with over two decades of clinical experience. He is the only prescriber named.

Its four main areas are medical weight loss, hormone therapy, peptide therapy, and biological age testing. Weight loss uses semaglutide, an injectable GLP-1 medication, and pramlintide, an amylin analogue. Hormone therapy is BHRT, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. The clinic also offers IV therapy, stem cell therapy, and BTL body-contouring and brain-stimulation devices.

Patients in San Francisco and Napa can receive virtual care while those offices relocate. In its own words: "Access personalized care virtually, wherever you are, through convenient telehealth appointments." Its Google listing shows a 4.9 rating from 21 reviews.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. The clinic gives no amounts or terms for consultations, programs, or its Concierge Wellness Membership, though it lists the membership and payment plans. The six-week Previ Virtual Weight Management Program includes weekly virtual visits, with no cost stated. It does not say whether it accepts insurance, or whether medication is included in any fee. Its semaglutide and cagrilintide program says compounded formulations may be used, and gives no cost for them.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes and signs each prescription. Dr. Kim is the only prescriber named, so ask whether he prescribes every medication and who covers when he is away.

Ask whether any monthly fee includes medication, and whether the drug is brand-name or compounded. For a compounded drug, ask which pharmacy fills it and what it costs.

The clinic calls cagrilintide investigational. Ask what that means for your prescription, and whether it is given as part of a study or as standard care. Ask also what screening the combination requires, since a full consultation and screening are needed.

Ask for the full cost in writing: consultation, lab work, imaging, follow-up visits, and any membership or payment plan. Ask how cancellation works and whether any fees apply.

Ask whether the virtual program is open to people where you live. The clinic serves people in California, Florida, Kansas, and Missouri, so confirm your state. Ask when the San Francisco and Napa offices reopen and where, since no addresses are given. The clinic's phone number is (925) 979-0979.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a physician-led practice that treats weight, hormones, and healthy aging as connected, you can reach Walnut Creek or manage virtual visits, and you are ready to get every price in writing before you commit. If you need published prices or clear cancellation terms before you book, call first.
