What is Pound of Cure Weight Loss?
Pound of Cure Weight Loss is a weight loss practice at 5155 E Farness Dr. Suite #111A in Tucson, AZ 85712. The phone number is (520) 298-3300. Dr. Matthew Weiner, MD, leads the practice. The clinic describes him as a board-certified bariatric surgeon with 20+ years of experience, and he is the only prescriber named in this listing. The clinic offers four services: bariatric surgery, non-surgical weight loss, GLP-1 medications, and nutrition counseling. Its GLP-1 medications include Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound. Zoë Schroeder, a Registered Dietitian, leads the nutrition side. The practice is mainly a surgeon-led weight loss center, with medication and nutrition alongside surgery.
The clinic serves Tucson and Southern Arizona, and it says it also takes Phoenix-area patients willing to travel. It offers telemedicine to appropriate Arizona patients. It does not list office hours. Its Google listing shows a 4.8 rating from 238 reviews. In its own words: "Our team is with you for every step, including the first one."
What does it cost?
The clinic does not publish a consultation fee or a self-pay price for its GLP-1 medications. It does not say whether any price includes the medication, and it does not say whether it accepts insurance. It promotes a $50 a month figure tied to Medicare coverage for GLP-1 weight loss medication. It does not say whether that figure applies to patients paying cash, what it covers, or who qualifies. Treat it as a question to ask, not a number to budget around.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who writes your prescription. Dr. Weiner is the only prescriber named here, so ask whether you will see him or another clinician, and what that clinician's credentials are. Ask whether the monthly fee includes the medication. If it does not, ask what the drug costs each month, whether it is the brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound or a lower-cost version, and whether any lower-cost version is compounded.
Ask what the consultation, follow-up visits and lab work cost, and whether telemedicine visits are priced the same as in-office visits. Ask whether the clinic bills insurance and what its "insurance support" includes. If you think you qualify for the $50 Medicare figure, ask what it covers and what you would still pay. Finally, ask how you cancel and whether there is a membership term or minimum commitment.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you live in Southern Arizona or the Phoenix area, want a physician-led practice that covers surgery, medication and nutrition in one place, and are willing to get prices in writing before you book. If you are only looking for a prescription and have no interest in surgery, ask early how the practice handles medication-only patients.
