Our Portland location offers the convenience of city access with personalized attention you won't find at larger chain facilities. We accept most insurance plans and work with you to make our services affordable. Most importantly, our track record speaks for itself, our clients not only lose weight but keep it off because we teach sustainable habits rather than temporary interventions.
Insurance & Pricing
We accept most major insurance plans including Kaiser, Providence, and OHSU health plans for medically necessary weight management services. Many insurance companies cover our program when you have qualifying conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or metabolic syndrome. Our staff will verify your benefits and help you understand your coverage before beginning treatment.
For services not covered by insurance, we offer transparent pricing and flexible payment options. Initial consultations range from $200-300, with ongoing program costs typically $150-250 per month depending on services selected. Many clients find our comprehensive approach more cost-effective than trying multiple separate solutions over time.
First-Time Patient Tips
Success in our program requires active participation and honest communication about challenges you're facing. Most clients lose 1-2 pounds per week when following their customized plan consistently, though results vary based on individual factors and starting point. It's important to attend scheduled appointments and complete recommended lab work for optimal monitoring.
Expect an adjustment period as you implement new eating habits and lifestyle changes, this is completely normal. Many clients find keeping a food and mood journal helpful initially. Don't get discouraged by temporary plateaus or small fluctuations, our team will help you navigate these normal parts of the weight loss process. Focus on building sustainable habits rather than achieving rapid results, as this approach leads to better long-term maintenance.
