Introduction

Finding weight loss drugs, like GLP-1 medications, can be tough. These medications work best when you also make lifestyle changes. It is key to choose a provider who understands your needs and can also support your lifestyle changes, improving your quality of life. If you’re not currently receiving the level of care and service that you desire, making the switch is something to consider.

Understanding GLP-1 Medications

GLP-1 receptor agonists are drugs used for type 2 diabetes + obesity treatments. They mimic a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). This hormone is important for controlling blood sugar levels, as it helps the pancreas release more insulin. At the same time, it lowers the production of glucagon. This cascade effect leads to slower digestion, meaning that you’re fuller for longer and unable to overconsume calories. You’re able to sustain a caloric deficit without battling insurmountable hunger pangs.

GLP-1 receptor agonists are injected once-weekly and highly convenient, slotting into a busy lifestyle with minimal disruption. This makes them an easy choice for managing diabetes and helping reverse obesity, and can be a catalyst for lasting lifestyle changes. Their comprehensive impact on health and longevity makes them a good option for those looking for a “real” solution that lasts.

Semaglutide and Tirzepatide: A Closer Look

Semaglutide and tirzepatide are the top two best choices for treating obesity and type 2 diabetes given that they help control blood sugar (lowering HBA1c levels) while facilitating weight loss.

Semaglutide comes in two forms: injectable and oral. This allows patients and their providers to decide which form will suit them best, though the once-weekly injectable form is often preferred due to efficacy and lesser side effects.

Tirzepatide is the newest GLP-1 on the market. It works on two different receptors, and so is termed a “dual agonist”. First, it activates GLP-1 receptors (similarly to semaglutide). Second, it also activates GIP receptors, which stands for glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide. Since it works on two receptor sites, tirepatide can often yield greater results when compared to semaglutide. At Fella, we see patients on tirzepatide losing >5% more of their bodyweight when compared to patients using semaglutide over a 12 month period.

Why Consider Changing Your GLP-1 Provider?

If you are taking GLP-1 medications, or considering taking them, selecting the right provider is an important first step. A good provider can greatly improve your experience, while one who leaves you in the dark can be a stumbling block. If you are having problems with your current GLP-1 provider, it might be a good idea to switch to a new one to ensure you’re able to achieve the results that you’re looking for while receiving treatment.

If you feel worried about high out-of-pocket prices as a result of not having insurance coverage for brand name GLP-1s, or are not getting the quality of care you desire, it may be time to look for a better solution. A clinic like Fella Health can help you access a GLP-1 treatment plan that is more comfortable financially, more convenient, and more supportive.

The Importance of Personalized Care in GLP-1 Therapy

GLP-1 therapy is different for each person. Everyone has unique health-related needs and reacts to the treatment in their own way.  It is important to adjust care as needed to achieve the best possible health outcomes. This means having a provider that is high touch and able to alter the treatment plan based on a patient’s medical history, lifestyle, and results (or lack thereof).

In healthcare, personalized care has a teamwork component to it. The core team is made up of the patient and their healthcare provider, and can often include additional supporting cast members. Patients must check blood sugar levels regularly if they have T2 diabetes or are wanting to reduce their HBA1c to prevent the onset of Type 2 diabetes, and providers must these and other biomarkers on an ongoing basis. Medications and/or dosages may need to be adjusted based on what the data says. Good communication is important to ensure no misinterpretations while mitigating care deficiencies. A customized approach is required for best results.

When health care providers focus on personal care, they can improve treatment for patients. This enables patients to be more in control of their health. It also aids them in achieving long-term success with GLP-1 therapy. The opposite can also be said—without support, treatment may end up falling short of expectations.

Benefits of Switching to Fella Health

Fella understands that creating a positive experience with GLP-1 therapy is critical to patient success. We prioritize transparent sharing of information with our patients, keep out-of-pocket prices low, and provide comprehensive, yet convenient, care. This is often different from other providers that just prescribe the GLP-1 medications and then are unable to be contacted. With us, that will never be the case.

We care about our patients. When you choose Fella Health, you are not just getting medication. You are also receiving help from a team that is committed to helping you achieve your desired health outcomes!

Consistent Pricing Regardless of Dosage

With Fella Health, you do not need to be concerned about pricing changes like you do with other providers. We believe everyone deserves affordable healthcare. That is why we keep prices steady for our GLP-1 medications, and we are often approcimately 66% cheaper than what one would pay at their local pharmacy.

You will begin with a lower dose and be titrated up over a period of time if you’ve never used GLP-1 medications before. If you’re switching from a different provider, your Fella provider will determine which dosage you start on that aligns with the treatment you were receiving elsewhere. You will always know exactly what the cost is, and we believe in an “all in” medication pricing model with no hidden fees. This way, you can focus on your health and not stress about unplanned costs or hidden “membership fees”. Know more about our weight loss treatments below:

Whatever is best for you!

Labs give us key information about your blood sugar, kidney health, and other health indicators. By monitoring any changes closely, our healthcare team can stay on top of any changes in your blood work, and then alter your treatment plan accordingly (if needed). That’s the Fella Difference.
