About Idaho Weight Loss & Wellness

What is Idaho Weight Loss & Wellness?

Idaho Weight Loss & Wellness is a medical clinic at 1162 Eastland Dr. N. #5 in Twin Falls, Idaho. Its main work is the Modern Weight Management program. The clinic describes obesity and overweight as diseases that need medical treatment. It also offers Wellness & Longevity care, Intimate Wellness, Urinary Incontinence treatment, and EMSELLA. The clinic added "Wellness" to its name in 2017. Google reviewers give it a 4.9 rating from 56 reviews.

Brad Gilman, listed as Medical Doctor, is the prescriber named on its team page. He specializes in wellness and obesity medicine. The program starts with a history and physical exam, a body composition measurement, lab testing, and an electrocardiogram when needed. The plan that follows may include hormone replacement, supplements, vitamins, exercise guidance, and medications. No weight-loss medication is named. In its own words: "We teach lifestyle change, not dieting."

What does it cost?

Visits are priced per visit. A new patient visit is $145, an extended follow up is $95, and a basic follow up is $85. The clinic does not bill insurance. It is self-pay, so you pay at the time of service. It accepts cash, checks, American Express, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and Care Credit. It will provide a superbill on request so you can submit it to your insurer, but it makes no guarantee of reimbursement.

The visit prices do not say whether medication is included. Costs may include labs, medications, or supplements, depending on your situation. Labs must be drawn at the office. The clinic describes its lab prices as reasonable and usually below what insured patients pay, but it does not publish them. Missing an appointment costs $25 if you do not cancel by 3 pm the day before. The clinic does not publish a membership fee or a price for its New Patient Class.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes and renews your prescriptions, and whether Dr. Gilman sees you at each visit. Ask whether any medication is included in the visit price, and what a typical month costs once labs, medications, and supplements are added. Ask whether a prescribed medication is brand-name or compounded, and which pharmacy fills it. Ask what the New Patient Class costs, and whether it is part of the $145 first visit, which takes about three hours. Ask for the lab prices, since none are published.

Ask whether telehealth is available and what hours the office keeps, because neither is listed. Ask whether peptide therapy is offered, since the clinic does not mention it. Finally, ask how monthly visits move into the maintenance phase, and whether there is any commitment period. The clinic will stay with you through your whole course of care, but it does not describe the terms.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live near Twin Falls, can pay per visit at the time of service, and want an in-person program with labs, a named physician, and follow-up visits over many months. If you need insurance billing, telehealth, or a fixed monthly price, get those answers before you book.
