What is The Lotus Medical?
The Lotus Medical is a concierge primary care practice at 240 W Palmetto Park Road, Suite 210, in Boca Raton, Florida. Primary care comes first, and hormone optimization, medical weight loss, peptide therapy, regenerative treatments, IV infusions and in-house lab testing sit alongside it. Its providers are Juan Bedoya, APRN, FNP-C, Paulina Dubov, APRN, FNP-C, and Dr. Paul Sarmiento, MD. The practice cites 20 years of combined experience across them.
The weight loss program names semaglutide, a GLP-1 medication. It does not start that medication at a first visit. In its own words: "We do not prescribe GLP-1 medications at an initial appointment to patients we have not evaluated." Hours are Monday through Friday, 9 am to 5 pm, with Saturday by appointment and Sunday closed. The practice has a 5-star Google rating from 93 reviews.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices. That includes visits, consultations, the concierge membership, weight loss, hormone therapy and IV infusions. Consultations are requested through an online form, and the team contacts you to arrange a visit. Its concierge care is described as "VIP access to your provider, extended consultations, and proactive health management." It also does not say whether medication is included in a program, whether it accepts insurance, or how membership is billed and cancelled. Get those answers before you commit.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask which of the three providers would write your prescription, and who handles follow-up between visits. Ask whether the semaglutide is brand-name or compounded, because the practice does not say. Ask whether a monthly program fee includes the medication, what follow-up visits and lab work cost on their own, and whether bloodwork is billed separately from the visit.
Then ask how a concierge membership is cancelled and whether it has a contract term. Ask whether telehealth is offered, since it does not state that. Ask what the first evaluation includes and what it costs, given that the practice describes evaluating patients before prescribing GLP-1 medication. Ask whether it accepts any insurance at all.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want primary care together with hormone, weight, IV or lab services in one practice, and you are ready to pay out of pocket once you have the prices in hand. It is a weaker fit if you need prices, medication details or a cancellation policy before you pick up the phone.
