What is Joshua Medical Center?
Joshua Medical Center is a family practice and walk-in clinic at 2429 M Street, Omaha, NE 68107, in the South Omaha area. Its main business is primary care. Weight loss management is one of nine listed services, along with family medicine, physicals, vaccinations, routine procedures, lab testing, X-rays and EKGs, urgent care, diabetes management, and treatment of chronic and acute illness. Family practice hours are Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm. Urgent care hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 6:00pm, and Saturday, 8:00am to 12:00pm.
For weight loss, its board-certified physicians can offer medications approved by the FDA, including bupropion-naltrexone (Contrave), liraglutide (Saxenda), orlistat (Xenical), and phentermine-topiramate (Qsymia). Its programs can also include meal plans, exercise routines, supplements, and check-ups. In its own words: "crush your weight loss goals instead of feeling crushed by them." The clinic also offers pastoral care alongside medical care. Google lists it as a weight loss service with a 4.6 rating from 205 reviews. The clinic does not name the physician who would prescribe for you.
What does it cost?
The clinic does not publish prices for weight loss care. It does not say whether medication is included in any fee, and it does not state a consultation fee. For payment, it offers this line: "We take most insurance and we have self payment options." Insurance may cover some visits, and self-pay is available, but you will need to ask what self-pay costs for weight loss care. It does not mention membership plans, financing, or HSA payment.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who would sign a weight loss prescription and whether you would see that same physician at follow-up. The clinic does not name a prescriber, so get the name before you commit.
Ask whether any quoted price includes the medication, the visits, and lab work. If it does not, ask what each one costs separately, and how often you would pay.
Ask whether you would receive the brand-name medication or a compounded version. The clinic lists drugs by generic name with brand names in parentheses, but it does not say which form it dispenses.
Ask whether your insurance covers the weight loss visits and the medication. The clinic's hours are listed for family practice and urgent care, so ask when weight loss visits happen and whether telehealth is available. Finally, ask what the follow-up visits and lab work cost, and how you would cancel.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want weight loss care from a family practice that also handles primary care, labs, and walk-in visits at one address. Before you pay, make sure you know the prescriber, the medication, and the total cost.
