WEIGHT LOSS INJECTIONS
IN TYLER, TEXAS

Semaglutide is $249 for 10 weeks. Tirzepatide is $349 for 10 weeks. Both prices include your provider consultation, the medication and the supplies to inject it, shipping to your door, and a meal plan. There are no membership fees, no monthly contracts and nothing added at checkout.

The honest answer is that it varies more than most clinics will admit. What we can tell you is what the research on the brand-name versions found: in trials of FDA-approved semaglutide, adults lost an average of roughly 15% of their body weight over about 68 weeks. In trials of FDA-approved tirzepatide at the highest dose, it was roughly 20% over about 72 weeks. Those were long studies of brand-name products. Your own result depends on where you're starting, how high a dose you reach, what you're eating and how consistent you are. Ten weeks gets you started and shows you how your body responds — it isn't the finish line. What most people notice first, well before the scale moves much, is that food stops taking up so much room in their head.

No. We treat patients by telehealth across the entire state of Texas, and your medication ships to your door. If you're in or near Tyler and would rather be seen in person, our clinic is at 327 W Houston Street and you're welcome to come in. Plenty of our patients have never set foot in the building, and plenty prefer to.

No, and that's deliberate. We're a cash-pay clinic. Insurance coverage for weight loss medication is inconsistent at best, and chasing prior authorizations adds weeks of delay and a layer of cost that gets passed back to you. Our pricing is the whole price, posted publicly, and you know what you're paying before you book.

They contain the same active medications — semaglutide and tirzepatide — but they are not those products. Ozempic and Wegovy are brands of Novo Nordisk. Mounjaro and Zepbound are brands of Eli Lilly. Optima is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to either company. What we prescribe is compounded, which means it is prepared for you by a licensed compounding pharmacy rather than manufactured as an FDA-approved finished product. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved.

Patients who qualify for our Semaglutide Weight-Loss Program will give themselves 1 injection per week. These are subcutaneous injections, which are done in the body fat with a tiny, short, and small needle. 

Semaglutide is a compounded medication and is not associated with the Novo Nordisk™  company or the brand-name medications Wegovy® or Ozempic®. 

Yes. It's prepared by a licensed Texas 503A compounding pharmacy, prescribed by a licensed medical provider after a real clinical encounter, and dosed once weekly. It is not a supplement, a peptide sold as research material, or anything you could order without a prescription. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved, and a provider prescribes them based on clinical judgment for an individual patient.

Your provider looks at how you responded and recommends the next step. If you're doing well at the dose you finished on, you stay there. If your progress has slowed and a higher dose makes sense, that's the step up. Either way it's a conversation, not an automatic charge — nothing renews on its own, there's nothing to cancel, and you'll know the exact price before anything is ordered.

Item descriptionIt depends on the dose you're on, because the vial changes with the dose. On semaglutide, staying at your finishing dose is $249 and gives you about seven weeks of medication. Stepping up to 1 mg weekly is $339 for eight weeks. On tirzepatide, continuing at 4 mg weekly is $449 for another ten weeks — a larger vial than your first one, since you're at full strength every week instead of working up to it. Stepping up to 6 mg weekly is $599 for ten weeks. Every one of those includes your provider visit, the medication, supplies and shipping, the same as the first ten weeks. Your provider goes through the options with you before anything changes.

No. There's nothing to lock into and nothing to cancel. You buy ten weeks, and at the end of it you decide whether to keep going. We don't discount the price in exchange for committing to three, six or twelve months, because we'd rather you stay because it's working.

We're a locally owned clinic in Tyler, Texas, run by two nurse practitioners — Daniel Black, FNP-C and Travis Squyres, FNP-C. We do weight loss and hormone therapy, and that's it. You'll see the same providers every time, you can reach them between visits, and nobody here works a commission. We're not a national telehealth platform routing you to whichever clinician is on shift.
