Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, the same active ingredient in branded medications like Ozempic and Wegovy. It works by slowing gastric emptying, reducing appetite signals from the brain, and improving insulin response. Most patients feel meaningfully less hungry within the first two weeks of starting.
All patients start at 0.25 mg weekly for the first 4 weeks. We titrate the dose upward in 4 to 8 week intervals based on response and goals.
Most patients land at 1.0 mg, 1.7 mg, or 2.4 mg weekly. Our NP will guide you to the dose that delivers results without unnecessary side effects.
Telehealth removes the parts of traditional wellness care that waste your time. Here's how the journey starts.
Pricing scales with your dose so you're never paying for medication you're not taking. Flat-rate "one price for everyone" programs charge maintenance patients the same as max-dose patients. We don't.
Your initial consult is free. Monthly subscription includes medication, sterile supplies, and ongoing clinical access. A flat $25 monthly shipping fee is added to cover delivery.
Semaglutide works best as part of a real plan. It is not a quick fix and it is not a substitute for sleep, protein, and movement. Our NP prescribes it for patients who are ready for both.
Semaglutide is the active ingredient in well-known branded medications like Ozempic and Wegovy. The version we prescribe is compounded by a California-licensed 503A pharmacy specifically for you based on your clinical visit. Compounded medications are not separately approved by the FDA as finished pharmaceutical products. They are legal under federal and California law when prescribed for a specific patient based on a clinical evaluation.
As with any medication, your experience will be unique to you. Our NP starts every patient on a low dose and titrates slowly so your body has time to adapt. We’re a message away if anything comes up between visits, and we adjust the plan as needed. Individual results vary, and the best outcomes happen when the medication is paired with sleep, protein, and movement.

Clinical trial averages at the maintenance dose (2.4 mg weekly) show roughly 12 to 15 percent total body weight loss over 12 to 18 months. Real-world results vary widely based on starting weight, dose, and how the medication is paired with protein, sleep, and movement. Most patients see meaningful loss within the first 3 months.
