About BioFit Medical Weight Loss

What is BioFit Medical Weight Loss?

BioFit Medical Weight Loss is a medical weight loss clinic at 2133 Silverside Dr, Suite B, Baton Rouge, LA 70808. Google lists it as a medical spa, but its website is built around one service, Weight Loss Management. The medications it names are semaglutide, tirzepatide, and compounded semaglutide. The prescriber it names is Mary Holden Jones, MD, FAAP. Her bio says she completed her residency in 2005 and has practiced medicine since then.

The office is open Tuesday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and the phone number is (225) 900-8246. The clinic serves Baton Rouge patients. It does not say whether visits can be done remotely.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. The consultation is described as complimentary. On financing, the clinic offers a 1-year same-as-cash option, and it adds: "Coverage for weight loss medications is not universally available."

It does not say whether the monthly cost includes the medication, and it does not say whether insurance is accepted. Financing is the only payment option it names, so plan on a call to get the full cost before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes the prescription and who handles follow-up visits, since the only prescriber named is Dr. Jones. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded, because the site lists both semaglutide and compounded semaglutide. Ask whether the monthly fee includes the medication, and what each follow-up visit and any lab work costs.

If you use financing, ask what the rate becomes after the first year and whether you can pay the balance off early. Ask whether visits can be done remotely, whether Monday or weekend appointments are possible, and how you cancel or pause treatment. The homepage also mentions body contouring, so ask whether it is offered and what it costs.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a physician-prescribed weight loss program in Baton Rouge, can pay out of pocket or through financing, and are comfortable asking about compounded versus brand-name medication before you book. It is a weaker fit if you need a posted price or a clear answer on insurance before you call.
