About Health First Wellness Center

What is Health First Wellness Center?

Health First Wellness Center is a chiropractic and wellness clinic in Tempe, Arizona, at 2525 South Rural Road. It is run by Dr. Suzanne Michelle Thomas, N.M.D, a naturopathic medical doctor, and Dr. Christopher Michael Thomas, DC, MUAC, a chiropractor. Weight loss is one piece of a broader list that also includes testosterone replacement therapy, hormone replacement therapy for men and women, thyroid management, ketamine therapy, NAD+ injections, sexual health treatment, hair growth treatment, medical marijuana certification, and services that sit outside conventional medicine, like energy clearing and chakra balancing. For weight loss specifically, it offers phentermine, semaglutide (injectable and oral), and tirzepatide, along with MIC and B12 injections. Telehealth is available for most services, though marijuana certification requires an in-person visit under federal law. Office hours run Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., with Tuesday and Thursday by appointment only.

What does it cost?

The phentermine weight loss program is listed at $132 a month, with a note that the medication price can shift a little depending on pharmacy costs. Semaglutide starts at $215 a month and tirzepatide starts at $340 a month. Testosterone replacement therapy is priced per cycle, listed at $245 in one place and $270 in another, so it is worth confirming the current figure when you call. The clinic states there are no monthly membership fees on top of these program prices. A ten-minute consultation is offered free. Other listed prices include NAD+ therapy starting at $190, oxytocin nasal spray or lozenge starting at $165, ketamine therapy starting at $269.99, hour-long counseling at $200, and marijuana certification fees ranging from $170 to $270 depending on new patient, renewal, or EBT status. It does not state whether insurance is accepted or whether any of the weight loss or hormone prices include the medication itself.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask directly whether the monthly price you are quoted includes the medication or is a program fee on top of it, since this is not spelled out. Ask which doctor will be reviewing your case and writing the prescription, since the two prescribers listed hold an N.M.D and a DC, not an M.D. or D.O., which matters to some patients weighing hormone or GLP-1 therapy. Ask whether lab work is included in the price of testosterone or hormone therapy or billed separately, and get the current per-cycle TRT price in writing given the two different figures listed. If you plan to use telehealth, confirm which specific services it covers for your situation, and ask what cancellation looks like even though there's no stated membership fee to cancel.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you are looking for a single Tempe clinic that combines medical weight loss and hormone therapy with chiropractic care, counseling, and more alternative offerings like energy clearing, and you are comfortable asking about prescriber credentials and exact pricing before you start. It's probably not the fit if you specifically want a prescriber with an M.D. or D.O. behind their name, or if you want a clinic focused narrowly on weight loss or hormone therapy alone.
