What is North View Medical Clinic?
North View Medical Clinic is a family medicine practice at 12405 N Wilson St in Mead, Washington. John Torquato, MD, runs the clinic. He has more than 24 years in practice as a family physician, holds a Doctor of Medicine from Loma Linda University School of Medicine, and is board certified with the American Board of Family Medicine. Weight loss is one of several services on the clinic's list, alongside primary medicine, hypertension, lifestyle medicine, health coaching, plant based nutrition, mental health, and diabetes reversal.
In its own words: "One of the main pillars of Dr. Torquato’s care at North View Medical Clinic centers around health coaching and implementing lifestyle medicine along with a scientific approach to treat patients." Telemedicine visits are offered to new and existing patients in Washington and Idaho. Office hours are listed as Tuesday and Wednesday from 9:00 pm to 4:00 pm, Thursday until 3:00 pm, and closed Monday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The 9:00 pm start looks like a typo, so confirm it when you call (509) 241-3327. Its Google listing shows a 4.9 rating from 146 reviews.
What does it cost?
The clinic does not publish prices for weight loss care, consultations, or any other service. It does not name a weight loss medication, so it does not say whether a program fee would include one. It accepts insurance and lists a long list of plans, including Premera Blue Cross, Regence, Aetna Washington, United Healthcare, Apple Health-Medicaid and Medicare Part B. Cigna, Humana and Kaiser Permanente/Group Health appear on a separate list of plans pending insurance company decisions, so check your plan before you book. It does not describe cash-pay rates, HSA or financing options, or membership terms.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who writes any weight loss prescription. John Torquato, MD, is the only prescriber named. Ask whether a monthly fee includes the medication, and if a medication is used, whether it is brand name or compounded and what it costs each month. Ask what the first consultation costs and whether your plan covers weight loss care at all, since the clinic does not say.
Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, and whether either is billed to insurance. Ask how to cancel and whether there is a minimum commitment. For telemedicine, ask whether follow-up visits can be done from home and which state you must be in when you log on. Confirm the Tuesday and Wednesday hours too.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a family physician who handles weight alongside blood pressure, blood sugar and other primary care, and you are willing to confirm costs before booking. If you are looking for hormone therapy or peptide therapy, the clinic does not list either, so ask directly before you decide it is the right match.
