I just reviewed your labs. Your thyroid and cortisol explain a lot. We recommend hormone optimization.
Your hormones are holding up. Looks like you're following the diet and working out hard.
I'm still not losing weight!
Your A1c is 7.8 — that's diabetic range. We're adding GLP-1 to your protocol.
Clinical trials of these medications show 17–22.5% body weight loss.
In the 68-week SURMOUNT-1 trial of tirzepatide, participants lost an average of 21% (up to 22.5%) of their body weight. In the 68-week STEP-1 trial of semaglutide, participants lost an average of 14.9% (up to 17.4%).*† Tier 2 covers both at $399.

Lasting good health or your first month back
If after your first month you feel GoodLife Health isn't right for you, we'll refund your membership in full. No questions asked.
Am I eligible?We don't upcharge for stronger medication.
Tier 2 covers comprehensive GLP-1 clinical management at $399 a month — whether your biology requires Wegovy (semaglutide) or Zepbound (tirzepatide). The clinical work is identical: full labs, contraindication screening, dose titration, side-effect management, ongoing monitoring. Charging you more because your body responded to a different molecule penalizes biology — and a sophisticated patient sees through it within the first comparison shop. Other platforms upcharge by hundreds of dollars when your biology needs the stronger medication. We don't.
Comprehensive labs first
Before any GLP-1 is prescribed, your clinician orders a full metabolic, hormonal, and inflammatory panel — including the lipid panel, vitamin D, B12, ferritin, and key micronutrients that affect whether weight loss actually holds. The labs tell us what your body actually needs. They also tell us which molecule is the right starting point.
A clinical conversation about which GLP-1 is right for you
GLP-1 is not for everyone. Personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, MEN2, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or severe renal impairment (eGFR < 45) are all clinical reasons we may recommend a different path. Members who don't qualify for GLP-1 are offered alternative medications and a clinically guided weight loss protocol that works for their specific picture. Nobody is sent away. For members who do qualify, your clinician selects the right molecule for your body — same $399 either way.
Branded medication, routed directly to you
Your clinician e-prescribes Wegovy through NovoCare Direct, or Zepbound through LillyDirect, or to your insurance with our AI prior authorization service handling the paperwork. You pay the manufacturer directly. We never touch the medication, never mark it up, never take pharmacy margin. For insured members, our AI auto-processes 85%+ of insurance prior auth requests in 7–10 minutes per case.
A complete protocol, not just a prescription
GLP-1 sits inside a complete protocol that includes nutrition, protein and fiber targets to protect muscle mass, and — when indicated — hormone optimization. The goal is the steady, sustainable loss the research supports: roughly 17% of body weight over 72 weeks on semaglutide, 22–24% over 68 weeks on tirzepatide. Not the fast crash that leads to rebound. Low-dose strategy throughout. Weekly check-ins. Quarterly clinical re-evaluation by your clinician. Your monthly price never changes.
What you actually pay each month
Our $399 subscription is medication-neutral. The total monthly cost depends on whether your insurance covers GLP-1 and which pathway your clinician routes you through.
For context: concierge weight-loss clinics charge $1,500–3,000/month bundled. Fragmented retail (separate doctor + lab + pharmacy) runs $1,086–1,349/month at branded list price. We're not the cheapest. We're the clinically credible, regulatorily clean option in the legitimate middle of the market — with medication-neutral pricing no compounded platform can match.
Real medical weight loss is a clinical relationship that uses every tool available — labs, hormones, nutrition, protein and fiber discipline, and the right GLP-1 when it's the right tool — to restore your metabolism and keep the weight off. The clinical work is what matters. The molecule is what your body needs. That's the work. That's what your membership is built for.
The competitor trap, in hard dollars.
The telehealth industry treats your biology like a profit margin. Most platforms lure you in with a cheap membership fee, then hit you with $1,000+ a month in retail medication markups — or force you into generic compounded drugs to protect their bottom line. And if your body needs a stronger dose or a newer molecule, they raise your price. Here is what you actually pay each month, side by side.

What Makes GoodLife Health Different.
Telehealth has split into three traps: legacy platforms that mark branded medication up to $1,899 a month, compounding-only services selling copies under FDA scrutiny, and concierge clinics that bill by the year. GoodLife Health is the only one that combines medical weight loss, hormone optimization, and ongoing primary care under a single licensed clinician — with transparent, direct-to-pharmacy billing and no markup.

The relationship is the medicine
"I finally feel like I have a real doctor again."
After years of having a PCP who was attentive and truly knew me, he retired. Since moving to Tucson I've struggled — every time I establish a relationship with a PCP, they change offices. And when I do get seen, I feel more like something on a conveyor belt than a patient. What a relief to find Dr. K and her team. They actually get to know you. They are attentive, thorough, and genuinely care. I finally feel like I have a real doctor again. Thank you!
"Dr. K really listened to my concerns."
I just had my appointment last week, and it was the most wonderful experience. Dr. K was amazing, she really listened to my concerns and gave me the knowledge I needed and was so caring. So happy I found an amazing provider. The staff was so awesome! Shout out to Kelly and Alvia for being kind and amazing! You guys rock!
"The best of the best doctor."
I needed a new PC physician. Her practice welcomed me in immediately. They ordered a complete blood work up before the visit, something my previous physician failed to do for years.
Then I met NP Kristin Makinajyan! Oh my gosh!! She listened, I mean really listened to me as the physical began. She addressed every one of my concerns and added a few from the results of the blood tests.
She went through my lengthy list of medications and tweaked them, schooled me, and left me feeling as though I had seen the best of the best doctor.
I feel so relieved and comfortable having visited NP Makinajyan and her team. Every one I met made me confident that my health was their number one professional goal!!
"Kristin helped me get my life back."
Kristin helped me greatly get my life back on track and control of my weight loss journey.
Direct answers from your clinical team
- No. The $399 monthly membership covers comprehensive GLP-1 clinical management regardless of which medication your clinician determines is right for your biology — Wegovy (semaglutide) or Zepbound (tirzepatide). The clinical work is identical: full labs, contraindication screening, dose titration, side-effect management, ongoing monitoring. Other platforms upcharge by hundreds of dollars for tirzepatide. GoodLife Health does not, because charging more for a different molecule penalizes biology.
- No. GoodLife Health prescribes FDA-approved branded GLP-1 medications only. All GLP-1 prescriptions route to Wegovy through NovoCare Direct, Zepbound through LillyDirect, or through the patient's insurance with AI-powered prior authorization. GoodLife Health does not facilitate compounded semaglutide or compounded tirzepatide under any circumstance.
- The $399/month fee is the clinical membership. It covers everything in Direct Primary Care and Hormone Optimization plus comprehensive GLP-1 clinical management: full labs, contraindication screening, molecule selection (Wegovy or Zepbound), dose titration, side-effect management, weekly check-ins, quarterly clinical re-evaluation, AI-powered prior authorization for insured patients, the nutrition and protein/fiber protocol, and hormone optimization when indicated. The medication itself is billed separately by the manufacturer or insurance — GoodLife Health does not mark up or take margin on the medication.
- The subscription is $399/month and medication-neutral. Total monthly cost depends on insurance and pathway. Best case with insurance covering GLP-1 and prior authorization approved: approximately $424/month ($399 + $25 copay). Medicare GLP-1 Bridge starting July 2026 for qualifying obesity: approximately $449/month. Cash-pay via TrumpRx for Zepbound: approximately $748/month. Cash-pay via LillyDirect or NovoCare: $548–$848/month.
- Many insurance plans cover branded GLP-1 medications with prior authorization. GoodLife Health's AI-powered prior authorization auto-processes approximately 85% of cases in 7–10 minutes per case. Some plans do not cover GLP-1 for weight loss specifically — coverage varies. For uninsured or non-covered patients, branded medication is available through LillyDirect (Zepbound) or NovoCare Direct (Wegovy) at the manufacturer's direct-pay rates.
- GLP-1 is not for everyone. Personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, MEN2 (Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2), pregnancy, breastfeeding, and severe renal impairment (eGFR < 45) are clinical reasons your clinician may recommend a different path. Members who do not qualify for GLP-1 are offered alternative medications and a clinically guided weight loss protocol tailored to their picture. Nobody is sent away.
- Published clinical trials provide the reference: in the 68-week SURMOUNT-1 trial of tirzepatide, participants lost an average of 21% (up to 22.5%) of their body weight. In the 68-week STEP-1 trial of semaglutide, participants lost an average of 14.9% (up to 17.4%). Individual results vary based on dose, adherence, baseline biology, hormone status, and lifestyle. The GoodLife Health protocol uses low-dose titration and quarterly re-evaluation to target steady, sustainable loss rather than fast-then-rebound.
- GLP-1 telehealth has split into traps: legacy platforms (Hims, Ro) mark branded medication up to $1,899/month; LifeMD and Calibrate stack multi-layered fees; Henry Meds sells compounded-only GLP-1 under FDA scrutiny. GoodLife Health is the only platform that combines medical weight loss, hormone optimization, and ongoing Direct Primary Care under a single named licensed clinician at $399/month — with branded medication billed direct by the manufacturer at $149–$449/month and no markup.
- The protocol begins with comprehensive labs and a clinical conversation before any GLP-1 is prescribed. From eligibility check through first prescription typically takes a few weeks, including the lab draw, lab return, clinical review, contraindication screening, molecule selection, prior authorization (if going through insurance), and pharmacy dispensing. Members already on Tier 0 or Tier 1 who upgrade to Medical Weight Loss move faster because their baseline labs are already established.
- GoodLife Health uses AI-powered prior authorization processing to handle the paperwork insurance companies require before approving GLP-1 coverage. Approximately 85% of prior authorization requests are auto-processed in 7–10 minutes per case. The remaining cases are handled by the clinical team. This is one of the differentiators that lets GoodLife Health serve insurance-covered patients efficiently without the membership fee inflation other platforms charge.
- Branded GLP-1 medication ships directly to you from the manufacturer's own channel. Wegovy ships from NovoCare Direct (Novo Nordisk's direct-to-patient pharmacy). Zepbound ships from LillyDirect (Eli Lilly's direct-to-patient pharmacy). Insured patients receive medication through their plan's pharmacy network after prior authorization is approved. GoodLife Health never touches the medication and takes no pharmacy margin.
- Yes. Membership is month-to-month with no contract. Your first month is fully refundable if GoodLife Health is not the right fit.
- GoodLife Health serves all 50 U.S. states. Our clinicians practice independently in Arizona and California, with the remaining states served through collaborating physician partnerships. The eligibility check confirms availability in your state.
