About LKN Weight Loss & Wellness

What is LKN Weight Loss & Wellness?

LKN Weight Loss & Wellness is a medical weight loss and wellness practice with offices in Davidson and Cornelius, North Carolina, in the Lake Norman area. Its core service is physician-guided medical weight loss. It also offers hormone replacement therapy, including injectable testosterone, and a long list of aesthetic treatments such as Botox, Jeuveau, Sculptra, dermal fillers, laser services and chemical peels. Aesthetics makes up most of the service list, so weight loss is the center of the practice but not the whole of it.

The weight loss program runs in three phases: Quick Start, Transition and Maintenance. Each phase covers food, activity, behavior and medication, and the practice says there is no medication requirement. It does not name the physicians who prescribe. It says patients see physicians and physician assistants on an ongoing basis, and that lab work is done at the start of treatment and over time. In its own words: "Throughout each program our patients are treated and followed closely by physicians trained in internal medicine."

This listing is for its Davidson office at 580 Davidson Gateway Dr.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. No consultation fee is listed, and it does not say whether medication is included in any program fee, whether insurance is accepted, or what the terms are for membership or cancellation. Ask for the full cost in writing before the first visit, covering the consultation, the program itself, any medication, lab work and each follow-up visit.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with the prescriber. The practice names no prescriber, so ask which physician or physician assistant would sign your prescription and who you would see at follow-up. Then ask whether the program fee includes medication. Ask whether any drug is brand-name or compounded, and which pharmacy fills it. The same questions apply to injectable testosterone and to the weight loss pills and supplements on the service list.

Next, ask what lab work costs and how often you would be seen, along with the cost of each visit. Ask whether there is a consultation fee, whether insurance, an HSA or financing is accepted, and whether any part of care can be done by telehealth, since none of this is stated. Finally, ask how cancellation works and whether missed visits carry a fee. Ask which office you would be seen at, Davidson or Cornelius.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want physician-supervised weight loss with aesthetic treatments available in the same practice, and you are willing to get prices, the prescriber and the medication terms in writing before you commit. If you need those answers posted online before you call, this practice may not give them to you until you ask.
