FAQs

๐Ÿ“Œ How much does a low dose GLP-1 cost?

We donโ€™t mark up the medication like the weight loss clinics out there. Dr. Reker sends your prescription to a compounding pharmacy at their direct price - no mark ups from us. NOTE: Since we use non-standard dosing, which requires a compounding pharmacy, we do NOT run any GLP-1 medications through insurance. You pay the pharmacy directly.โ€‹


Current formulation prices (which are subject to change): 

  • Semaglutide: about $150 per vial
  • Tirzeptide: about $250 per vial

The awesome part? With our low-dose approach, each vial lasts 1.5-3 months. Way cheaper than what youโ€™ve probably heard about.

๐Ÿ“Œ How much is a low-dose GLP-1 program this with you, and does insurance cover any of this?

  • Doctor visits: Cash pay out-of-pocket. You'll need follow-ups every 90 days for safety.
  • Medications: You pay the pharmacy directly, not us.
  • Labs: We can run these through your insurance if you'd like. Or cash pay is about $250. Lab prices are always subject to change. You'll need new labs 2x per year.
  • Dietitian: Covered by insurance 95% of the time at one hundred percent. No copay or deductible!
  • Dexa scans: Find locally on your own. These run about $75-125.
  • Food trackers: Free to $10 a month with us.
  • Metabolism testing: $200-305. We conduct these once per month in our Gilbert office.

๐Ÿ“Œ Can you help me understand the ongoing care cost breakdown?

Of course, here's what each cost breakdown looks like AFTER your initial visit costs:
  • Possible acute, once-only 30- day follow-up up post-initial consult. $155
  • Visit #1 per year: Regular follow-up with labs (required ever 6 months for medical monitoring and safety): $255 
  • Visit #2 per year: Weight loss follow up no labs $155 (*weight loss patients only)
  • Visit #3 per year: Regular follow up with labs (required ever 6 months for medical monitoring and safety): $255 
  • Visit #4 per year: Weight loss follow up no labs $155 (*weight loss patients only)
