1 of the 8 programs below lists semaglutide for less than Wholesome Clinic's $159 a month. 5 of the 8 list tirzepatide for less than its $349 a month.

Wholesome Clinic is primarily an integrative psychiatry and wellness practice in Frisco, TX, led by NP Stephanie Ukoha.

Best for: Patients in TX/CO/NM/OK/LA/AR/OR who want GLP-1 weight loss bundled with psychiatric/whole-person care from one provider, and who value transparent dose-tiered pricing.

What Wholesome Clinic does well

  • Real, named, dual-certified prescriber (Stephanie Ukoha, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC)
  • Transparent dose-tiered pricing for both injectable and oral GLP-1 options, with no evident promo bait-and-switch
  • Dissolving tablets (ODT) as a needle-free option: semaglutide from $159/mo and tirzepatide from $249/mo, cheaper than the $349 tirzepatide injection
  • Can send a Wegovy or Zepbound prescription to your own pharmacy if your insurance covers it
  • Combines weight-loss care with broader whole-person/psychiatric services for patients who want both

Why readers look for an alternative

  • Weight loss is a secondary service line to the clinic's core psychiatry focus, not its specialty
  • Only licensed in seven states -- far narrower than most national GLP-1 telehealth competitors
  • No compounding pharmacy partner named
  • No LegitScript certification
  • If the provider decides a GLP-1 isn't right for you, $99 of your first payment is kept as an evaluation fee
