CenTex IV

CenTex IV operates as a physician-led wellness clinic in Woodway, Texas, under the medical direction of Dr. Gleb Gendel, DO, a board-certified osteopathic physician with Guardian MD certification. Established in 2019, the clinic has built a reputation across the greater Waco area for delivering intravenous nutrient therapy and peptide-based treatments designed to address metabolic health, weight management, and cellular regeneration.

With 388 five-star Google reviews, CenTex IV has become a regional destination for patients seeking medically supervised wellness interventions that extend beyond conventional primary care. CenTex IV offers an extensive peptide therapy program with 6 different peptides available, including metabolic peptides including Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, tissue repair compounds such as BPC-157, and other specialized compounds.

Treatment selection is individualized based on comprehensive health assessments and patient goals. Dr. Gendel's osteopathic training informs the clinic's whole-person approach, which considers lifestyle factors, nutritional status, and metabolic health alongside pharmaceutical interventions.

Registered nurses conduct intake assessments, administer IV infusions, and provide patient education on treatment protocols and expected timelines. Initial consultations are conducted in person at the Woodway location, where providers review lab work, medical history, and treatment goals before designing individualized peptide or IV therapy regimens.

The clinic maintains a patient-centered model that emphasizes clear communication about pricing, treatment expectations, and realistic timelines for achieving health objectives. Patients visiting CenTex IV can expect a clinical environment designed for comfort during infusion sessions, which typically range from 30 to 90 minutes depending on the protocol.

The clinic's nursing staff monitors vital signs and adjusts infusion rates to ensure patient safety and tolerance. For weight loss patients, follow-up visits include body composition analysis, dietary counseling, and medication titration based on individual response and side effect profiles.

Peptide therapy patients receive education on subcutaneous injection technique for at-home administration when applicable, along with guidance on storage, dosing schedules, and signs of adverse reactions.

CenTex IV offers telehealth consultations exclusively for Texas residents, allowing patients across the state to access medical oversight for ongoing peptide therapy and weight management programs after an initial in-person evaluation.

The clinic ships medications directly to patients' homes when permitted by Texas pharmacy regulations, and maintains regular virtual check-ins to assess progress and adjust treatment plans. This hybrid model has expanded access to peptide-based interventions for patients in rural Texas communities who would otherwise face significant travel barriers to receive specialized metabolic and regenerative medicine care.
