The medical difference
What is medical weight loss?
Medical weight loss is a provider-supervised approach to weight management that combines prescription therapy, nutrition planning, and ongoing clinical monitoring. Treatment addresses underlying factors such as metabolism, appetite regulation, and hormonal balance — rather than calorie restriction alone.
At Summit Health, GLP-1 medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are prescribed only after an evaluation by a licensed provider, then paired with monthly visits and body composition scans so your plan adapts as your body changes.

A GLP-1 receptor agonist that helps regulate appetite and slow gastric emptying. From $200/month with medication included.
Tirzepatide
Acts on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors; clinical trials have generally shown greater average weight reduction. From $250/month with medication included.

Common questions
What to know before your first visit.
What is medical weight loss?
Medical weight loss is a provider-supervised approach to weight management that combines prescription therapy, nutrition planning, and ongoing clinical monitoring. Treatment is designed to address underlying factors such as metabolism, appetite regulation, and hormonal balance, rather than calorie restriction alone.
What is the difference between Semaglutide and Tirzepatide?
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, while Tirzepatide acts on both the GLP-1 and GIP receptors. Both help regulate appetite and slow gastric emptying, and clinical trials have generally shown greater average weight reduction with Tirzepatide. The right choice depends on your medical history, tolerance, and goals, which is determined during your evaluation.
Am I a candidate?
You may be a candidate if you struggle with long-term weight management, have not achieved results with diet and exercise alone, have metabolic or hormone-related challenges, or are seeking provider-guided support. A full evaluation is required to determine eligibility and the safest treatment approach.
How long does it take to see results?
Results vary by individual. Some patients notice changes in appetite within the first few weeks, while more significant progress typically occurs over several months with consistent treatment and lifestyle support. Monthly body composition scans track fat loss and lean muscle retention so treatment can be adjusted.
Do I still need diet and exercise?
Yes. Medical weight loss works best when combined with healthy nutrition and lifestyle habits; medication alone is not a substitute for long-term behavior change. Summit Health builds an achievable nutrition plan and a custom exercise protocol that meets you where you are.
How is safety monitored?
All treatment is evaluated and monitored by licensed healthcare providers. The most commonly reported side effects of GLP-1 therapy are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and injection site reactions. If medications are prescribed, patients are monitored closely to ensure treatment remains safe and appropriate.
Do I have to come into the office, or is telehealth available?
Both options are available. Monthly follow-up visits can be completed by telehealth or in person at the Springfield clinic, though body composition scans require an in-office visit. Telehealth eligibility depends on your clinical situation and Missouri licensing requirements.
