About WellForm MD

What is WellForm MD?

WellForm MD is a physician-led weight management clinic at 2675 N Ankeny Blvd, Suite 113, Ankeny, IA 50023. Weight loss is its main service. Patrick Oben, MD, leads the medical evaluation, medication decisions and ongoing monitoring, and he is the only prescriber the clinic names.

Its medical weight loss program may include GLP-1 treatment when a physician considers it appropriate. The medications the clinic names are Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro and FoundAyo. Nutrition counseling and health and wellness coaching are offered as support, either alongside medication or in place of it.

The clinic also offers testosterone therapy (TRT), plus medical spa, skin, wellness, sexual wellness, mental wellness and body contouring services. It does not say how many years it has been open. Google shows a rating of 5 from 34 reviews. Virtual consultations and compounded GLP-1 enrollment are paused, so care is currently in person. The clinic serves patients from Ankeny, Des Moines and the surrounding metro area.

This listing is for its Ankeny office at 2675 N Ankeny Blvd Ste 113.

What does it cost?

The clinic's care fee is $300 a month, and medication is not included. In its own words: "Medication costs are separate and paid to the dispensing pharmacy." The first consultation is free. Some appointments require a booking fee to reserve your time, and any fee and its terms are confirmed before you book.

The clinic does not say whether it accepts insurance. The medication price is not published, and the selected pharmacy charges for approved-brand medication. Before enrollment, confirm the product, total cost, care plan and cancellation and refund terms. It does not publish a price for testosterone therapy.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs your prescription and whether Dr. Oben is that prescriber. Ask whether the $300 monthly fee covers any medication, and get the exact product, presentation, pharmacy and total monthly cost in writing. Ask whether the product is an approved brand or a compounded preparation. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and are not generic versions of approved brands, so the answer changes what you are buying.

Ask what follow-up visits, lab work and device services such as body scans or contouring sessions cost, since additional services and testing are not automatically included. Ask whether your appointment carries a booking fee, whether the clinic accepts your insurance, how long it has offered medical weight loss, and how cancellation and refunds work.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you can attend in person in Ankeny, want physician-led weight management, and are ready to pay a monthly care fee plus separate medication costs. It is a weaker match if you need virtual visits right now or need to know whether insurance will be billed, since neither is confirmed. Consultations run Monday and Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM and Tuesday through Thursday from 1 to 5 PM Central time, and the clinic is closed on weekends.
