How many obesity-medicine and endocrinology clinics are in Santa Monica?

Our directory lists 25 Santa Monica practices whose true primary specialty on file is obesity medicine, endocrinology, or bariatric care, plus 26 clinics and medical centers and 1 primary-care clinician whose CMS record also lists an obesity-medicine or endocrinology taxonomy — 52 in total. Every count comes from the CMS National Provider registry (NPPES) taxonomy on file, not a survey of services.

Do these Santa Monica clinics prescribe semaglutide or tirzepatide?

The registry records each practice's specialty taxonomy, not the specific medications it prescribes or its current service menu. Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism is the most common taxonomy bucket among Santa Monica listings in this directory (27 of 52 practices). Obesity-medicine and endocrinology practices commonly prescribe GLP-1 medications like semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic) and tirzepatide (Zepbound, Mounjaro), but we can't confirm any individual Santa Monica clinic's offerings from the registry alone — call the practice directly to confirm availability, pricing, and new-patient status before booking.

Is it cheaper to see a clinic in person or use telehealth in Santa Monica?

It depends on your insurance and the medication. An in-person visit plus a brand-name prescription (Wegovy or Zepbound) can run $1,000-$1,350 per month without insurance, while licensed telehealth providers shipping compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide to California addresses average around $219/month cash-pay. Compare current cash-pay pricing from the featured California telehealth partners in the "In-Person vs Telehealth" section above.

How did you verify these Santa Monica clinics?

Every listing is sourced from the CMS National Provider registry (NPPES), the federal database of enumerated healthcare providers. We verified 25 primary-specialty practices, 26 facility-type listings, and 1 primary-care clinicians in Santa Monica this way — 52 listings in total. If you don't find a fit here, nearby Beverly Hills has a larger directory (143 listings). Listing reflects the taxonomy on file — it is not an endorsement, and not a confirmation of GLP-1 availability, cash-pay pricing, or new-patient status.
