What is Clinica Santa Maria?
Clinica Santa Maria is a women's health practice in Brownsville, Texas, with two offices in town. Most of its work is OB-GYN care, and it also runs a wellness med spa. Dagoberto Martinez, FACOG, FACS, M.D., MD, is the chief executive and began practicing obstetrics and gynecology in Brownsville in 1979. Mary Ann Fore, RN, is the chief operating officer. Mariana Obregon, APRN, FNP-C, MSN, is a family nurse practitioner who specializes in women's health. Madeleine Corbeil and Vikki Presas are women's health nurse practitioners.
Two of its services suit this listing. Its weight loss program is medically supervised and pairs nutrition counseling with prescription appetite suppressants. It offers an 8-week meal planning program, with this description: "Includes expert guidance and ongoing support for 8 weeks to help you stay accountable and motivated." It also offers 30 or 60 day diet and appetite suppressant packages and an hCG diet protocol. For menopause, it evaluates and treats symptoms such as hot flashes and sleep disturbances, with options including hormone therapy and lifestyle modifications.
This listing is for its Brownsville office at 3855 Southmost Rd.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices for weight loss or any other service, and it does not publish a consultation fee. It does not say whether the package price includes the medication. It says it accepts most major insurance providers, and it asks patients to call the office before an appointment to confirm their plan. It does not describe how cancellation works.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask which clinician prescribes the appetite suppressant. The clinic names several providers, but it does not name a weight loss prescriber. Ask which medication is used and whether it is a brand-name product or a compounded one, since the clinic does not name it.
Ask whether the package price covers the medication, the visits, lab work and follow-up, and what any extras cost. Ask what the hCG protocol involves and who supervises it, because the clinic offers it without explaining it. Ask whether telehealth is available, since that is not stated. Finally, ask how a package is canceled, whether any part of the fee is refunded, and whether your insurance covers any of the visits.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a Brownsville women's health practice that also offers weight loss and menopause care, and you are willing to call first for prices, the name of the medication and the prescriber. It suits a patient who is comfortable asking those questions before paying, and who is not counting on a published price to decide.
