About Why Wait Wellness
What is Why Wait Wellness?
Why Wait Wellness is a nurse practitioner led clinic offering medical weight loss, women's hormone therapy, IM vitamin injections, and laser skin renewal, with locations in Tempe and Gilbert, Arizona, serving patients across the East Valley including Chandler, Mesa, and Scottsdale. Staci Kilpatrick, FNP-C, MSCP, is the prescriber, and the practice describes her background as including over a decade in healthcare with a clinical foundation in cardiovascular surgery. For weight loss, the clinic offers GLP-1 injections (semaglutide or tirzepatide) as well as oral options like Contrave and phentermine, alongside a non-medicated nutrition and coaching program. For women going through perimenopause and menopause, the hormone program includes a 90-minute initial consult with a full hormone panel reviewed personally by Staci, available both in-person and by telemedicine. The Tempe location is open Tuesday through Saturday on a set schedule; Gilbert, hosted at Candeo Clinic, is open Thursdays only.
This listing is for its Gilbert office at 1450 W Guadalupe Rd #120.
What does it cost?
The weight loss consultation is $75. GLP-1 injections (semaglutide or tirzepatide) start at $299 a month, oral medications (Contrave or phentermine) start at $215 a month, and the non-medicated nutrition and coaching program is $99 to start, then $65 a month. It is not stated whether the $299 and $215 monthly figures include the cost of medication itself, so ask directly. The hormone program lists a 90-minute initial consult at $225, though a separate page also lists a general consultation fee of $75, so confirm which fee applies before booking a hormone visit. The clinic does not bill insurance directly but accepts HSA and FSA cards and can provide a superbill for possible reimbursement.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask whether the $299 or $215 monthly price includes the medication itself or just the clinical visit, since that is not stated. Ask whether the GLP-1 medication dispensed is brand-name (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound) or a compounded version, since both semaglutide and tirzepatide are named without specifying the source. Ask what the $225 hormone consult fee covers compared to the $75 consultation fee listed elsewhere, so you know what you'll be charged for a first hormone visit. Ask what follow-up visits and repeat lab work cost beyond the initial consult, and whether there is a minimum commitment or a cancellation policy for the monthly weight loss programs, since none is published. If Gilbert is more convenient, confirm what is available there beyond Thursday hours, since only one day is listed.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want a single nurse practitioner managing both weight loss and perimenopause or menopause hormone care, with telemedicine available for hormone visits and office hours that include Tuesday evenings and Saturdays in Tempe. It is worth a direct call first if you need the monthly cost spelled out in full, since the published prices do not say whether medication is included.
