FAQ

You will receive your provider’s name when you book your initial video appointment with us. We encourage you to verify they are licensed as a nurse practitioner or physician in the state of Louisiana and can show you how to do that. We can also show you how to verify the pharmacy.
Restrictive dieting is not required. Many people lose weight without exercising, but most also lose muscle mass. Exercise is optional but encouraged to maintain health. This medication works for most people. However, studies show that 15% of people will not respond in the same way. If this is you, our providers know obesity medicine and treatment protocols that can work better for your metabolic system. We will work with you to find a treatment plan to meet your goals!

The FDA currently allows compounding pharmacies to make compounded tirzepetide and semaglutide because
Wegovy and Zepbound are listed on the FDA Shortage List. If that is expected to change, we will try to find
alternative options. Our providers are experienced in prior authorizations and resources, like manufacturer
coupons.

In the next month, we will also begin offering Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Services (BHRT)! BHRT can help you to have more energy, a happier mood, improved body weight, renewed sex drive, clearer thinking, stronger hair, and better focus! We can help you rediscover your vitality and confidence virtually.
Injectable weight loss medications have been shown to lead to reductions of 15-20% of body weight with diet and exercise. Expect 10% loss of body weight over 6 months. Some lose more than that during the first six months and some lose less. If you lose less or are not consistently meeting your goals each month, we will work with you! Start now and you could be transformed by next month!

Yes! Compounding pharmacies are allowed to make compounded versions of commercially available drugs under special circumstances, particularly a shortage, according to the FDA (Food and Drug Administration).
Side effects can happen. The most common are nausea, acid reflux, and constipation. There are ways to lessen these and we provide ongoing support to make sure you feel your best. We will discuss this during each visit and as needed.
If you are eligible, we are happy to send a prescription to your regular pharmacy for the brand-name medications (Wegovy and Zepbound). Please note that many insurance companies do not cover these medications, and even with insurance, they can be quite expensive and very difficult to find in stock. There are safe and effective options for budgets of all ranges. We will discuss what works for you during your first visit.
