About This Clinician

Richmond Ramirez is a Family Medicine clinician in Henderson whose NPPES record also lists an obesity-medicine or bariatric-medicine taxonomy as a secondary specialty.

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 Richmond Ramirez's specific protocol, services, or pricing. Confirm what a visit involves directly with the practice — 702-960-4568.
