About This Clinician

Ming-Jim Yang is a Family Medicine physician in Gainesville whose NPPES record also lists an obesity-medicine or bariatric-medicine taxonomy as a secondary specialty. Primary-care and family-medicine clinicians who carry this secondary designation are among those most likely to actively manage GLP-1 prescribing, though this registry entry does not confirm current prescribing practices — call ahead to confirm.

Locally, this is 1 of 290 Family Medicine practices in Gainesville carrying this exact taxonomy in our directory.

What to expect at a Family Medicine visit

Family-medicine practices manage routine and preventive care for all ages. A weight- or GLP-1-related visit often involves:

  • •A general health and medication review in the context of your overall care.
  • •Screening labs where indicated (A1c, metabolic panel) before starting therapy.
  • •A conversation about whether GLP-1 therapy or a referral to a specialist is the better fit.
  • •Coordination with your insurance on coverage and prior authorization.

This is general guidance for family medicine practices, not a description of Ming-Jim Yang's specific protocol, services, or pricing. Confirm what a visit involves directly with the practice — 352-594-3589.
