Weight-loss clinics in Santa Maria, CA.

A California-licensed clinician who evaluates you decides whether an FDA-approved GLP-1 fits. Ozempic is approved for type 2 diabetes, and Wegovy for weight management. The 30 clinicians listed above come from the federal NPI registry. Ask each office what it prescribes. Telehealth rules vary by state.

Ask which medicine the clinic offers and whether it is FDA-approved, who the prescriber is, whether it accepts your insurance and handles prior authorization, and the all-in monthly price including visits and the medicine. Wegovy and Zepbound are approved for weight management. Ozempic and Mounjaro are approved for type 2 diabetes.

Each clinic sets its own visit and program fees, so ask for the all-in monthly price. The medicine is priced separately. Without insurance, Novo Nordisk lists Ozempic at $1,027.51 a month and Wegovy at $1,349.02. Its self-pay pens cost $349 a month for most doses, $499 for Ozempic 2 mg and $399 for Wegovy 7.2 mg. With commercial insurance and the savings card some people pay as little as $25. Prices checked October 3, 2026.

As of April 2026, California Medicaid covers GLP-1s for diabetes, not routine weight loss. Employer and private plans set their own GLP-1 coverage, so confirm your specific plan.
