What to Expect

GLP-1 medications are a class of medications used to treat type 2 diabetes and aid in weight loss. GLP-1 stands for glucagon-like peptide-1, a hormone produced in the gut that stimulates insulin secretion and helps regulate blood sugar levels. Some benefits of GLP-1 medications include improved blood sugar control, weight loss, and a reduced risk of heart disease.

 

When you start taking GLP-1 medications, you can expect to experience some side effects. However, these side effects usually improve over time, and many people find that the benefits of GLP-1 medications outweigh the temporary discomfort. GLP-1 medications are typically taken by injection once or twice a day, and they work by mimicking the effects of GLP-1 in the body, helping to control blood sugar levels and promoting weight loss. If you have type 2 diabetes or are struggling with weight loss, we can discuss whether GLP-1 medications might be right for you.

GLP-1 Agonists Weight Loss Management (Semaglutide/Tirzepatide)

Initial consultation is $250 (deducted from the first month if the program is initiated). Prices include nutrition guidance, all labs, and all follow-up appointments (unlimited). We recommend at least 4 months.

  • Semaglutide (Wegovy): $350/first 3 months ($116/month); then $325/month

  • Tirzepatide (Mounjaro): $750/first 3 months ($250/month); then $500/month

​

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • Why are the prices different? Tirzepatide is more expensive than Semaglutide across the board, thus the price difference. Both are GLP-1 agonists and have the same mechanism of action, so should have the same results, However, I’ve had many patients have better results with Tirzepatide for some reason.

  • What if I'm already on the medication under a different doctor? If starting after month 3, you will start at the usual monthly rate. Will waive the consult fee if transitioning to my clinic, unless labs are required (require lab panel evaluation within the past 6 months). The initial lab fee is $200 (comprehensive, including hormone panels). Then, all follow-up labs while in the program are included in the monthly fee.

  • Why does the price go up in Month 4? By Month 4, you're well on your way to your weight-loss goal, but your dosage also goes up. The increased price is to cover higher doses of the medication.

  • Why should I switch? All our patients have Dr. Zuniga's personal number for contact, questions, and needs.
