How does TMates work?
TMates is a comprehensive telemedicine program designed to help individuals achieve weight loss and lead healthier lifestyles. Our program includes telemedicine visits, nutrition and exercise coaching, and medication. Through regular virtual consultations, our medical staff will assess your medical history, weight loss goals, and individual needs to create a personalized treatment plan.
How much does the program cost? How much is the evaluation?
Our program is priced as low as $225 per month, which includes telemedicine visits, nutrition and exercise coaching, and medication. This all-inclusive approach ensures that you receive comprehensive support throughout your weight loss journey. Many of our patients find that the cost is well worth the benefits they achieve in terms of weight loss, improved health, and long-term savings on medical expenses.
Do you have to be over a certain BMI to qualify for Semaglutide?
BMI and medical history are among the factors our medical staff considers when determining qualification. If you have struggled with long-term weight loss and maintenance, we encourage you to schedule a consultation. If you do not qualify, you will receive a 100% refund.
What is the name of the medication and are there any side effects?
The medication prescribed to you is determined by our licensed providers based on your medical history and weight loss goals. One of the most popular and effective medications we recommend is Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It has been extensively tested for nearly 20 years. Common side effects, such as mild nausea or gastrointestinal effects, are manageable by following our experienced team's advice. Schedule a consultation with TMates to learn more. TMates supports patient choice and does not discriminate based on your insurance plan or carrier.
I've used weight loss medications before, but I'm concerned about side effects.
In clinical studies, Semaglutide has shown a slightly beneficial effect on blood pressure for some individuals. Moreover, weight loss associated with Semaglutide treatment may lead to a small decrease in blood pressure. However, individual responses may vary. During your consultation, our team will discuss this question in detail, taking into account your medical history and current situation.
I'm concerned about the shortage of Semaglutide. Can you provide more information?
We understand your concerns, but we want to assure you that there is no shortage of Semaglutide. While there may have been a shortage of brand name GLP1 medication's due to manufacturing issues with its prefilled pen, the active ingredient, Semaglutide, has always been available. It's important to differentiate between the brand name and the active ingredient. If you're facing difficulties obtaining a brand name GLP1, we can explore alternative options. At TMates, we are committed to helping individuals with diabetes and other health conditions achieve their weight loss goals and lead healthier lives.
