About Grove Care Clinic LLC

What is Grove Care Clinic LLC?

Grove Care Clinic LLC is a primary care practice at 1601 E Main street, Suite B, in Cottage Grove, Oregon. It is locally owned, women-owned and veteran-owned, with no affiliation to a large corporation. Devon Schneider, FNP-C, owns the practice and sees patients as its family nurse practitioner. She has provided primary care in Cottage Grove for over 5 years and has over 13 years of experience in family medicine and women's health.

Routine well exams with diet and exercise counseling, lab reviews, Pap smears, breast exams, cancer screening referrals and renewal of most medications sit alongside minor procedures such as skin biopsies, IUD placement and removal, Nexplanon implant insertion and removal, and knee injections. Weight loss is one of its services, listed as "Weight Loss program with Tirzepitide/ B6/B12." Tirzepitide is a GLP-1 medication and the only medication it names. It does not describe how the program runs. The office is open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM PST, and closed Wednesday and weekends. Google shows a 4.5 rating from 17 reviews.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices, a consultation fee or a monthly rate for the weight loss program, and it does not say whether medication is included in that program. It says nothing about financing or membership terms. It accepts insurance. In its own words: "We accept most insurance plans, but please contact our office to verify acceptance of your plan." The plans it lists include Medicare, Cigna, Humana, United Healthcare and Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oregon/Regence.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with the weight loss program. Ask whether the monthly fee covers the Tirzepitide itself or whether the medication is billed separately, and what the B6/B12 part involves and whether it adds to the cost. Ask whether the Tirzepitide is brand-name or compounded, and confirm that Devon Schneider is the prescriber and who orders and reviews follow-up labs.

Then ask about the rest. What is the consultation fee for a new patient paying cash? What do lab work and follow-up visits cost? Virtual Visits appear among its patient tools with no detail, so ask what a virtual visit covers and whether the program needs office visits. Ask how to cancel or pause the program. Finally, ask whether it offers hormone therapy, peptide therapy or longevity care, since none are named among its services.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a family practice for routine care that also offers a weight loss program with Tirzepitide, and you are comfortable confirming the price and what it includes before you book. It makes less sense if you are looking for hormone therapy, peptide therapy or longevity medicine, which it does not list. Worth calling about the program's cost or whether your insurance plan is accepted.
