What is Pearl Medical Clinic?
Pearl Medical Clinic has offices in Desoto, Midlothian and Grand Prairie, Texas. It offers five services: medically supervised weight loss, primary care, allergy testing and immunotherapy, urgent visits and immunization, and immigration physicals. Weight loss is the service most cash-pay patients come for, so it is the one to look at closely.
Ibidunni Ukegbu, MD has been a Board Certified Internist for the last 18 years. She is registered as a provider with the Center for Medical Weight Loss (CMWL). Indyia Lacount, FNP is a Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner who sees patients for medical weight loss and internal medicine. The weight loss program combines diet, exercise, behavior modification and, when needed, medication. Its answers about Adipex (Phentermine), Saxenda and Wegovy do not say which of them the clinic prescribes. They say the choice depends on an exam, lab results and an EKG, and that no prescription is guaranteed. On Google, the clinic has a 4.7 rating from 179 reviews.
This listing is for its DeSoto office at 2727 Bolton Boone Dr Ste 101.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices for weight loss or any other service, and it does not say whether medication is included in any price. In its own words: "We have several self-pay plans and packages for people who do not have insurance." The self-pay price list is available by calling or emailing the office. No consultation fee is published.
The clinic accepts insurance. Insurance may cover the visit fee for conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, osteoarthritis and GERD. Add-ons such as body composition analysis, laser treatments, Vitamin B12 and compounded medication injections are usually not covered by insurance. The clinic also sells vitamins, supplements and meal replacement products.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who writes the weight loss prescription and whether you will see Dr. Ukegbu or Indyia Lacount, FNP. Ask whether any monthly fee includes the medication, and whether the drug is brand-name Saxenda or Wegovy or a compounded version. Ask what your insurance would cover, since insurance plans decide whether a prescribed medication is covered.
Visits run every 2 weeks for a month, then monthly, so ask the price of each follow-up visit and of any lab work. Ask whether any visits can be done by video, since telehealth is not mentioned. Ask whether there is a membership or contract, and how to cancel it.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want in-person medical weight loss care with a physician or nurse practitioner, you can pay cash for visits and medication, and you are willing to get the full price in writing before you book. It is a weaker fit if you need video visits or a published price list, since neither is shown.
