What is Legacy Weight and Diabetes Institute?
Legacy Weight and Diabetes Institute is a department of Legacy Good Samaritan Medical Center in Portland, Oregon, so it operates as a hospital-based program rather than a standalone weight loss clinic. The address is 1040 N.W. 22nd Ave., Suite 520, Portland, OR 97210-3097, and the phone number is 503-413-7557. Google reviews put it at 3.5 stars from 23 reviews.
The care team includes surgeons, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, dietitians, physical therapists, psychologists and social workers. No prescriber is named in anything Legacy publishes, so ask who would write your prescription. The program offers four services: weight-loss surgeries and procedures, weight management, nutrition services and a diabetes program. The surgical options it lists are gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, gastric balloon and bloodless surgery.
On medication, in its own words: "Legacy offers GLP-1 medications as part of our medical weight management program." The medications it names are Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound.
This listing is for its Gresham office at 24800 SE Stark St.
What does it cost?
Legacy does not publish prices, a consultation fee or a monthly rate. It also does not say whether GLP-1 medication is included in any price, whether insurance is accepted for weight management, or whether telehealth visits are offered. Coverage deserves a direct question. Legacy's own writing on bariatric surgery notes that many insurers only cover these medications for people with diabetes, so do not assume coverage for weight management.
Legacy's Medicare notice explains that some of its clinics are hospital-based and may add a facility charge on top of the physician charge. Because this program belongs to a hospital, ask whether that charge applies to your visits, whether or not you have Medicare.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who signs the prescription and whether that person is a physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant. Ask whether any medication is included in the program fee, and whether the product is brand-name or made by a compounding pharmacy. Ask what a follow-up visit and lab work cost, and whether a facility charge applies. Ask whether insurance covers weight management or only diabetes care, whether visits can be done by video or phone, and how to cancel or change a plan.
You can call 503-413-7557 to speak with a member of the team. The contact form is unsecured and asks you not to send medical details, so save those for the phone call.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want surgery, nutrition, diabetes care and weight management under one hospital department, and you are willing to get prices, coverage and prescriber details in writing before you commit. It is a weaker match if you need a published monthly price to compare against other cash-pay clinics, because none is listed.
