About Family First Medical & Wellness Clinic

What is Family First Medical & Wellness Clinic?

Family First Medical & Wellness Clinic is a family medicine practice at 300 Clay Street in Kenner, Louisiana, 70062. Its three listed services are internal medicine, obesity medicine, and pediatrics, so obesity medicine is one part of a family practice here, not the whole business. In its own words: "We specialize in internal medicine, obesity, and pediatrics."

Dr. Darlonda R. Harris is the only prescriber named. She completed a combined residency in internal medicine and pediatrics at Tulane University and is board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine, the American Board of Pediatrics, and the American Board of Obesity Medicine. She received her medical degree from Louisiana State University Health Sciences in New Orleans.

The clinic is rated 4.8 on Google from 16 reviews. Its phone number is (504) 800-8022. It does not list office hours, and it does not say whether telehealth is offered.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. No consultation fee, monthly rate, or medication cost is given, and nothing says whether a medication is included in any price. It accepts most insurance plans, Medicaid, and Medicare. Patients who are not covered by those plans are asked to contact the office about a solution. It does not mention HSA options, financing, or membership terms.

What should you ask before you book?

The clinic names obesity medicine as a service but does not name a weight loss medication or program. Ask what the program involves, whether it includes a prescription, and whether Dr. Harris writes that prescription. Ask whether any medication is brand-name or compounded, and whether its cost is part of any price you are quoted.

Ask for the consultation fee, and ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost. If you have insurance, ask whether obesity medicine visits fall under your plan, since the clinic does not say which services its plans cover. Ask about telehealth and office hours. If you are considering hormone therapy, ask directly, because the clinic does not list it as a service. If any membership or recurring fee is offered, ask how cancellation works.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a family doctor in Kenner who also handles obesity medicine, and you are willing to get the cost and program details in writing before you pay anything. If you came for a named medication or a published cash price, call first, since neither is listed.
