About The Silhouette Clinic

What is The Silhouette Clinic?

The Silhouette Clinic is a weight loss clinic at 19851 Observation Drive in Germantown, MD 20876. Its main work is non-surgical weight loss, and it can be reached at 301-288-1319. The clinic names Halim Charbel M.D. and Reza Hashemipour M.D. as physicians, and Crystal Lubis N.P. and Sarah Moffett N.P. as nurse practitioners, all as prescribers. Katelyn Metz R.D. is also on the team, with no prescribing role given.

The clinic offers Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG), the Orbera Weight Loss Balloon, which it describes as a twelve-month program, and the Spatz3 Weight Loss Balloon. It also offers bariatric revision for patients who have regained weight after gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy, and weight loss injections. Of its medical weight loss service, it says: "We offer weight-loss medications prescribed under medical supervision, as well as nutrition counseling". It does not name the medications. The clinic also lists Morpheus8 Skin Tightening, which is a skin service rather than a weight loss one. On Google, the clinic has a 4.8 rating from 99 reviews, in the weight loss service category.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. It also does not state a consultation fee, whether medication is included in any program, whether it accepts insurance, or whether it takes HSA payments or offers financing. Ask for a written quote covering the whole plan before you book, including medication, any procedure, sedation and follow-up visits. To book a consultation, call 301-288-1319.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs your prescription, and whether visits happen in person or by video, since telehealth is not stated. Ask whether a monthly fee includes medication, and whether that medication is brand-name or compounded. Ask which medications the injection program uses, because none are named. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, whether sedation for a revision procedure is billed separately, and how cancellation works if you stop partway through a program like the Orbera balloon. Ask whether insurance or an HSA can be used. Office hours are not listed, so ask for those too.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want weight loss care supervised by a physician or nurse practitioner, you are ready to pay out of pocket, and you want the full cost in writing before you commit. It also suits someone who is considering a non-surgical procedure and wants to compare options before deciding. If you need a published price or a named medication before you call, the clinic does not publish those, so ask first.
