What is Bayou MD Weight Loss and Wellness?
Bayou MD is a physician-run, cash-pay clinic at 6684 W Park Ave in Houma, Louisiana. The phone number is (985) 346-6864. The two listed prescribers are Dr. Jennifer Ourso Straney, MD and Dr. Michael J. Straney, MD. Weight loss is the clinic's main focus. It also offers hormone therapy for women, testosterone therapy for men, probiotics and lab work. Google lists it as a weight loss service with a 4.2 rating from 10 reviews.
The weight loss program starts with testing: four blood panels, an EKG, blood pressure, body fat analysis and a medical history. A physician reviews the results, suggests a diet and decides whether appetite suppression medication is appropriate. The clinic names Wegovy and Zepbound, injectable prescription medicines, as options. In its own words: "Get seen by a Board Certified Obesity Medicine Physician."
Hormone therapy centers on pellets placed under the skin in the office. The women's section describes them as compounded pellets customized to each patient's needs. The office is open Monday through Thursday from 8 AM to 4 PM and Friday from 8 AM to 1 PM, with a lunch closure from 2 PM to 3 PM.
This listing is for its Houma office at 6684 W Park Ave.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices for weight loss or hormone therapy, and it does not say whether medication is included in any price. Consultations are free. The clinic is cash pay only: "We do not accept insurance at this time."
Payment is due at the time of service by major credit or debit card, cash, flex or HSA card. Care Credit financing with no interest is available to those who qualify. On request, the clinic will provide a form with billing codes so you can submit the visit to your own insurer, and any reimbursement goes to you. Hormone patients return every 3 months during the first year, with labs completed before each visit. The cost of labs is not listed.
What should you ask before you book?
Does the monthly weight loss price include the injectable medicine, or is it billed separately? Ask for the total you would pay each month with medication included.
Are Wegovy and Zepbound brand-name products, or is any part of the program compounded? In its own words: "help you get the best prices available." It gives no figures.
What do the intake panels, the EKG and the labs before each follow-up cost?
Which of the two named physicians will write your prescription, and will you see the same one at each visit?
Are any visits available by telehealth? The clinic does not say.
For pellet therapy, what does insertion cost, and how often are pellets replaced and at what price?
What is in the Lipo PLUS lipotropic injection, what does it cost, and is it compounded?
What is the cancellation policy for any program you join?
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want physician-led care for medical weight loss or hormone therapy, you are ready to pay in cash, and you want the full monthly cost in writing before your first visit. It is a weaker fit if you need telehealth or expect published prices, since neither is listed.
