What is this weight management clinic?
This is the weight management clinic of University of Utah Health, a hospital system. It is at 1280 East Stringham Ave, 4th Floor Pod E, Salt Lake City, UT 84106, and it is listed at the Sugar House Health Center. The core of the clinic is medical weight management, the prescription side, and it also offers surgical and procedural options. The services it lists are medical weight management, weight loss medication, weight loss surgery, minimally invasive weight loss procedures, bariatric surgery, mental health and behavioral therapy, and stress management and exercise.
The medications it names include Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro, Saxenda and Contrave, along with phentermine and topiramate. The surgical and procedure options are gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy and the gastric balloon, which is placed through an endoscope and removed after six months. The three prescribers named are Tejaswi Kompala, MD, Jessica J. Morales, MD, and Susan D. Pohl, MD, FAAFP. Other clinicians on the team are not named as prescribers. The clinic lists virtual visit options, and its surgery seminar is virtual and free.
This listing is for its Salt Lake City office at 50 Medical Dr N.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices for weight loss medication or the program, and it does not say whether medication is included in any price. No consultation fee is listed. On insurance, it says: In its own words: "Insurance coverage for gastric sleeve surgery and weight loss medicine varies. Your insurance company can tell you which weight loss therapies your plan covers."
It does not say whether it accepts insurance for medical weight management, so confirm how you would pay before you book. The university's website has a Price Transparency link in its footer, which is a reasonable first stop before you call.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who writes the prescription, and whether it will be one of the three named prescribers or another team member. Ask whether any monthly or visit fee includes the medication, and whether the drug is brand-name or compounded. Ask what the first consultation costs, what follow-up visits and lab work cost, and whether those are billed to insurance or paid in cash.
Ask how cancellation works and whether you owe fees for months after you stop. If you are considering surgery or the gastric balloon, ask what that pathway costs, since surgery begins with the seminar and a short quiz. Hours are not listed, so ask when the clinic is open and how virtual visits are scheduled.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a hospital-based program with physician prescribers in Salt Lake City, and you meet the criteria the clinic lists for medication: age 14 or older, with a BMI over 30, or over 27 with a weight-related medical problem. If you need a price before you call, plan on calling first.
