About wUrthy Health Clinic

What is wUrthy Health Clinic?

wUrthy Health Clinic is a primary care practice in Urbandale, Iowa, founded and run by Jackie Hojati, Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner. Jackie is the only prescriber named. The office is at 2633 86th Street in the Westmark II Shopping Center, next to Marberry Law Firm, and the phone number is 515-252-2552. Patients must be 16 or older.

Besides primary care, the clinic offers a medical weight loss program, described as a structured cash-pay package, along with lab draws and vitamin D and B12 injections. Follow-up and urgent visits can be done in person or by telehealth. The one weight loss medication named is Zepbound. In Jackie's own words: "I made the decision to shift to brand-name FDA-approved GLP-1 medications whenever possible." The change followed national shifts that left many compounding pharmacies unable to provide consistent injectable options. You do not need to be an established primary care patient to join the weight loss program. Jackie typically sees patients from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, Monday through Thursday, with limited Friday availability. The clinic has a Google rating of 5 from 30 reviews.

What does it cost?

These are cash-pay rates for patients not using insurance. A new patient initial office or telehealth visit is $250. Follow-up visits are $135, in person or by telehealth. An annual physical, wellness visit, or sports physical is also $135. A same-day sick or urgent visit is $99, in person or by telehealth. A lab draw is $15. Specialty labs vary by need, and Jackie reviews options and pricing with you first. Vitamin D is $30 and B12 is $20. Prices are subject to change.

The clinic accepts several insurance plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Healthcare, Cigna, Aetna, Medicare, Medicaid, Wellpoint, Iowa Total Care, and Molina. Accepting a plan does not guarantee your specific plan is in network, so confirm coverage with your insurer before you book.

It does not publish a price for the weight loss program, and it does not say whether Zepbound is included in the program price. It also does not publish a price for Zepbound itself. Ask for both before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask whether the weight loss program price includes Zepbound. If it does not, ask what the medication costs through your pharmacy or through Lilly Direct self-pay, which is offered as an option. Ask whether the program uses only brand-name medication or ever a compounded version. Ask which follow-up visits and lab draws the program requires, what each costs, and how often the structured check-ins happen.

Ask whether there is a membership fee, a minimum term, or a cancellation rule. None is published. Ask for exact clinic hours too, since the hours given are typical only.

Ask whether hormone therapy is offered. Hormones appear among the concerns Jackie treats, but no hormone therapy service is named or priced.

Ask whether you need to be an established patient first. You do not for the weight loss program. Annual physicals require establishing care first, and urgent visits are for established patients only.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you are 16 or older, want a nurse practitioner as your main care provider, and are willing to pay cash and confirm the weight loss price before you book. If you need a published weight loss price up front, or care for a school-aged child, look at other clinics first.
