What is Semaglutide Medical Weight Loss Program?

Every day, the brain receives signals from different places in the body. Some of these signals, called appetite hormones, help regulate your food intake. Semaglutide, aka Wegovy™, works by mimicking a hormone that targets areas of the brain involved in regulating appetite and food intake. This can help you eat less, which can lead to weight loss.

The cost of the program is $299 first month, $350 the following months, which includes the cost of your medication from a special compounding pharmacy. We require a 3-month minimum commitment and the monthly fee is required to be paid monthly.

This cost covers your weekly weigh-ins and injections with one of our program facilitators and the cost of your prescription.

We do not bill insurances for your monthly fee. This is a non-insurance-covered weight loss program.

Dosage should be individualized to obtain an adequate response with the lowest effective dose. The usual adult dose is one tablet three times a day 30 minutes before meals. This tablet is scored to facilitate administering one half of the usual dosage for patients not requiring the full dose.
