About GLO

What is GLO?

GLO is a medical spa at 710 Main Street, Building 3, in Plantsville, CT 06479. You can call (860) 866-6927. Most of what it offers is aesthetic work: facials, HydraFacial treatments, body sculpting, eye treatments, a non-surgical face lift, micro art and laser hair removal packages. Medical weight loss is one of its services, listed alongside nutrition and wellness.

The weight loss program starts with a consultation, then scheduled weigh-ins and what the clinic calls a hormonal therapy evaluation, followed by a plan built for each client. The clinic describes the program as an all-in-one option for those needing more than just injections. The program does not name a medication or a prescriber. Google lists GLO under weight loss service with a 4.9 rating from 66 reviews.

What does it cost?

GLO does not publish prices for its weight loss program, and it gives no consultation fee for that program. It also does not say whether medication is included in any price, or whether it accepts insurance. Ask for the full price in writing before you book.

Its VIP memberships are spa services rather than weight loss, and they carry firm terms: "Requires 12-Month Commitment and 2 Months Upfront." If a membership comes up during your conversations, ask what it costs, what it covers and how you cancel before you agree to anything.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with the prescriber. Ask who writes the prescription, what their license is, and whether that person examines you before any medication is started. The weight loss program does not name anyone.

Next, ask which medication the program uses, whether it is brand-name or compounded, and whether the monthly cost includes it or bills it separately. Ask what the hormonal therapy evaluation costs, and whether lab work and follow-up visits are extra. Ask whether the consultation is free, whether the clinic takes insurance, and whether any part of the program can be done by telehealth, since none of that is stated. Ask for the hours too, because none are listed. Finally, ask how you stop. If you are signing up for anything with a 12-month commitment, get the cancellation terms in writing.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want medical weight loss care at the Plantsville clinic, you would also use its skin or body treatments, and you are willing to get the prescriber's name, the medication and the full price in writing before you pay. If you need those answers before you call, or you need a clinic that publishes its prices, ask the questions first and decide after you hear them.
