How Much Does GLP-1 Weight Loss Cost? Every Number We Publish

Medically reviewed by Jeff Beaty, DO, Board-Certified Emergency Medicine, Certified in Peptide Medicine (A4M)

The complete answer, first. A GLP-1 weight loss program at New Genesis Vitality costs $129 for the initial consultation and $99 for each follow-up visit. Lab panels start at $99, with the Quest blood draw and your provider’s review of the results included in the panel price. Prescription refills between scheduled appointments carry a $10 charge. Medication is billed separately at pass-through pharmacy pricing and quoted to you before anything is prescribed. If peptide protocols are ever added to your plan, that care is billed at the regular Advanced Peptide fees of $199 for the protocol-design consultation and $149 for follow-ups. There is no membership, no program fee, and nothing that reaches your statement without your approval first.

That paragraph is the whole architecture. The rest of this page explains the one number we will not print, why the clinics that do print it are usually printing something else, and what your actual first month looks like in arithmetic you can check.

What Medical Weight Loss Costs Without Insurance

Searches for medical weight loss cost mostly return two kinds of answers: a giant range that helps nobody, or a single confident monthly number with an asterisk attached. Here is the honest version. Without insurance, the cost of a medical weight loss program has exactly three components: the visits, the labs, and the medication. The first two can be published, so we publish them:

Service Fee Notes
Metabolic Correction (GLP-1): initial consultation $129 Roughly 30 minutes by video; evening and weekend slots available
Metabolic Correction (GLP-1): follow-up visit $99 Typically 15 minutes, longer when your provider needs it
Lab panels From $99 Quest draw and provider review included in the panel price
Prescription refill between scheduled appointments $10 The only between-visit fee
Adding peptide protocols to a GLP-1 plan $199 initial / $149 follow-up The regular Advanced Peptide fees apply to that care
Medication Pass-through pharmacy pricing Quoted before prescribing; you approve the number first

The third component, medication, is the largest variable in any weight loss program and the one this page will not put a number on. That is not evasion; it is the next section.

We are cash-pay: no insurance is required, and superbills are available for HSA or FSA reimbursement. If you are weighing the cash-pay route against using your insurance, that comparison has its own page: cash pay vs insurance for weight loss.

Why There Is No Medication Price on This Page

A GLP-1 class medication is a prescription, and its cost depends on decisions that have not been made yet when you are reading a pricing page. Three of them, specifically:

  • Whether it is prescribed at all. Your plan is built from your labs and your evaluation, not from the name of the program you clicked. A licensed provider decides what your biology supports, and that decision happens after measurement, not before.
  • What the pharmacy charges when your prescription is filled. We bill medication at pass-through pharmacy pricing: what the regulated pharmacy charges is what you pay, with no markup from us. Pharmacy pricing differs between prescriptions and can change over time, which is exactly why a number printed on a page for everyone cannot be your number.
  • How long you stay on it. Duration is a clinical decision you revisit with your provider at follow-ups, and it moves the total more than any other factor.

So the sequence protects you instead of a price tag: consultation first, labs second, and then, if medication is appropriate, the exact cost is quoted to you at pass-through pharmacy pricing before anything is prescribed. You approve the number before it exists as a bill. Any clinic that prints a medication price before it has seen your labs is quoting an average patient. You are not an average patient; nobody is.

You will also notice this page names no specific medications, only the GLP-1 class. That is deliberate: prescription decisions belong in a consultation, made from your labs, not on a cost page written for everyone.

Teaser Prices, Bundles, and What a Printed Number Usually Means

Much of the online weight loss market prices itself around one attractive monthly figure. It is worth understanding what that figure usually is before comparing it to an itemized fee schedule.

The teaser-bundle model wraps visits, program access, and sometimes medication into a single recurring charge, often introduced at a lower first-month rate. Its genuine strength is simplicity: one number to budget, no arithmetic. The structural tradeoffs are just as real: the components are invisible, so you cannot tell what the visit portion or the medication portion actually costs; the advertised number and the ongoing number are not always the same number; and pausing usually means losing the whole bundle at once.

The itemized model, which is ours, publishes each service fee and treats medication as what it is: a separately quoted prescription. The tradeoff runs the other way. Your total is not one flat number, because it reflects what you actually used: a month with a follow-up visit costs $99 plus any medication fill; a month with neither costs nothing. Every published fee on this page also appears on our pricing page before you book.

Neither model changes the medicine. But only one of them lets you see the pieces, and the pieces are the only way to know whether a bundle is a good deal.

What Your First Month Actually Costs

Until a medication quote exists and you approve it, your spending is capped by published numbers: the $129 initial consultation plus a lab panel starting at $99. That is the most that can happen to your card before you are looking at the complete picture, medication quote included, with the decision still entirely yours. If you have recent lab work, bring it to the consultation; your provider will use what is still current so you do not pay to re-test.

From there, ongoing costs are the $99 follow-ups on the schedule you and your provider set, $10 refills between scheduled appointments when you need them, and the medication at its quoted pass-through price. For a step-by-step look at process timelines and expectations, see our medical weight loss timeline. The peptide side of the practice prices the same way with different visit fees; if you are comparing programs or your provider raises the option, the numbers live on our peptide therapy cost page. And if you want the payment model itself explained, Texans can start with cash-pay medical weight loss in Texas.

GLP-1 weight loss care at New Genesis Vitality is available 100% online to patients in Texas, Florida, and Arkansas, through licensed providers at a physician-led practice. Women navigating weight change after 45 have a dedicated Texas page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the cost of a GLP-1 weight loss program change from month to month?

Because medication is the only variable, and it is quoted before it is ever prescribed. The service fees are flat: $129 for the initial consultation, $99 for follow-ups, $10 for a refill between scheduled appointments. Medication is billed at pass-through pharmacy pricing, so what the regulated pharmacy charges for your specific prescription is what you pay, and that can differ between prescriptions and over time. In a month with no visit and no fill, you pay nothing, because there is no membership fee running in the background.

What happens if I decline the medication quote?

Nothing further. Declining the quote costs you nothing beyond what you have already approved: the published consultation fee and any lab panel you approved in advance. Your provider revisits the plan with you, which may mean adjusting the approach or simply not prescribing. There is no penalty and no fee for saying no, and your lab results remain yours.

What do I pay if peptide therapy is added to my weight loss plan?

A patient in the Metabolic Correction (GLP-1) program who adds peptide protocols pays the regular Advanced Peptide fees for that care: $199 for the protocol-design consultation and $149 for follow-ups. Peptide medication is handled the same way as GLP-1 class medication: billed separately at pass-through pharmacy pricing and quoted before anything is prescribed. The full peptide-side numbers, including lab panels, are published on the peptide therapy cost page, so the crossover never introduces an unpublished fee.

Does pausing or stopping a GLP-1 program cost anything?

No. Stopping does not trigger a fee, and pausing does not keep a monthly charge running, because there is no membership or subscription behind the program. You pay for the visits you attend, the labs you use, and the medication you approved, and when those stop, the costs stop with them. Any decision about stopping medication itself is a clinical one to make with your provider at a follow-up visit, but the financial side has nothing to unwind.

Are labs included in the GLP-1 consultation fee?

No, and we think itemizing them is the honest way to do it. The consultation is $129, and lab panels are priced separately starting at $99, ordered during your consultation, with the Quest blood draw and your provider’s review of the results included in the panel price. If you have recent lab work, your provider will use what is still current rather than re-ordering it. Keeping labs itemized means you can see exactly what the measurement step costs instead of guessing at its share of a bundle.

Check Our Numbers, Then Decide

Every fee in this program is on this page, and the one cost we cannot print arrives as a quote you approve before it becomes real. If that is how you want medical pricing to work, book a consultation with a provider licensed in your state.
