About Triad Internal Medicine

What is Triad Internal Medicine?

Triad Internal Medicine is an internal medicine and primary care practice with two offices, both in Asheboro, NC. It serves patients from Asheboro, Redding Hills, Greensboro, Randleman, Sophia and Grays Chapel, and surrounding areas. Keung Lee, MD, PhD, MHA leads the practice and is its named prescriber. He has practiced internal medicine and addiction medicine in Asheboro for over 20 years.

Weight loss is one of about twenty services, alongside primary care, urgent care, DOT physicals, STD testing, lab testing, immunizations and telehealth. The clinic describes its weight loss work this way: "Triad Internal Medicine provides customized medical weight loss programs focused on long-term success." The practice names phentermine, orlistat, Saxenda and semaglutide (Wegovy) among its weight loss medications. Google lists the practice at 4.9 from 232 reviews.

This listing is for its Asheboro office at 300 Mack Rd Ste B.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices, a consultation fee, or a monthly rate for its weight loss program. Its listing shows a $$$ price range, but no dollar amounts. It also does not say whether medication is included in any program fee, and it does not mention financing, HSA use or membership terms.

On insurance, it says: "We accept most insurance providers. If you have specific questions regarding your coverage, please contact us for additional information." So you may not be paying entirely out of pocket for every visit, but the cost of the weight loss program itself is left open. The main number is (336) 283-2770.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who writes the weight loss prescription, Dr. Lee or another clinician. Ask whether any monthly fee includes the medication, and whether the medication is brand-name or compounded. Ask which of the named medications would be considered for you, since the practice does not say which a given patient is offered.

Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, because lab testing is done in-house and those charges are not listed. Ask whether your insurance covers the visits, the medication, or both. Ask how cancellation works and how long a program runs. If you live outside Asheboro, ask whether telehealth is available to you and in which states, since it is listed as a service but not explained.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want weight loss handled inside an ongoing internal medicine practice, with your other conditions managed by the same office. It is a weaker match if you want a posted monthly price before you call, because none is published.
