What "supervised" actually means

Real medical weight loss isn't just a prescription in the mail. It's evaluation, monitoring, and adjustments from a provider who knows you.

Why supervision matters

The difference between a refill and real care

The online "weight-loss app"
  • You never meet a real provider
  • One-size-fits-all dosing
  • Little to no lab monitoring
  • Hard to reach anyone with questions
  • No view of your whole health
Medical weight loss at Meadow
  • Evaluated by your own provider
  • A plan built around your health history
  • Baseline and ongoing lab work
  • Text your provider directly
  • Care that fits your full picture
How it works

A careful, step-by-step start

1

Evaluation & labs

We review your history and run baseline labs to see if a GLP-1 is appropriate for you.

2

Your plan & prescription

If it's a fit, your provider prescribes an FDA-approved medication and builds a plan around your goals.

3

Monitoring & adjustments

We follow your progress with check-ins, manage side effects, and adjust as you go.

Medications are prescribed only when clinically appropriate after evaluation, and GLP-1s aren't right for everyone. Individual results vary.

What's included — and what isn't

Your Meadow membership covers the part that keeps you safe and on track: your provider visits and ongoing monitoring.

Labs and the medication are separate costs — but we've negotiated low cash prices for lab work (or you can use your insurance or Medicare), and the medication is filled through your pharmacy. We're always upfront about both.

Questions

Honest answers about GLP-1 care

What GLP-1 medications do you offer?

+

We prescribe FDA-approved, brand-name GLP-1 medications when they're clinically appropriate for you. Meriem reviews your health history, current medications, and goals first — these medications aren't right for everyone, and we only prescribe after a proper evaluation.

Is the medication included in my membership?

+

No. Your membership covers your provider visits and ongoing monitoring. Labs and the medication are separate costs — we've negotiated low cash prices for lab work (and you can use your insurance or Medicare for labs), and the medication is filled through your pharmacy. We're always upfront about those costs.

How is this different from the online weight-loss apps?

+

With most online services you never build a relationship with a provider — dosing is one-size-fits-all and it's hard to reach a real person. At Meadow, your own provider evaluates you, runs baseline and follow-up labs, adjusts your plan, manages side effects, and looks at your whole health — not just a number on a scale.

Do I need insurance for this?

+

Membership isn't insurance, but it covers the supervised care side. Whether your insurance covers the medication itself varies by plan, and we'll help you understand your options.

Does Medicare cover GLP-1 medications?

+

Medicare coverage for GLP-1s is evolving — a federal program is expanding access for certain medications starting in 2026. Medicare patients are seen fee-for-service under standard Medicare rules, separate from the DPC membership, and we'll walk you through what applies to you.
