In its own words: "At CGA Weight Loss & Surgical Specialist, we carefully evaluate each patient’s health history, lifestyle, and weight loss goals before prescribing medication."
This listing is for its Mansfield office at 1400 U.S. 287 Frontage Rd Ste 201.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices, a consultation fee or membership terms. It does not say whether insurance is accepted, whether medication is included in any price, or whether telehealth visits are offered. It does not list opening hours either. Call the number above and ask for each of these before you book.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask which clinician writes your prescription and whether the same doctor reviews your follow-up visits. The listing does not print a medical degree after Dr. Apakama's name, so ask for his degree and board certification directly.
Ask whether the monthly fee includes the medication or whether it is billed separately. Ask whether each drug is brand-name, such as Wegovy or Zepbound, or whether any of it is compounded.
Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, whether the consultation fee is credited if you later choose surgery, and how a monthly program is cancelled. Ask what the eligibility criteria are for medication and for surgery, and whether any visits can be done by video.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you are considering a bariatric or general surgery procedure, or weight loss medication overseen by a surgeon, and you want the price in writing before you commit.
