About Small Town Wellness

What is Small Town Wellness?

Small Town Wellness is a nurse practitioner's clinic at 18675 E 39th St S Suite C in Independence, MO 64057. Cynthia Stock, FNP-C, is the only prescriber named. She describes herself as a family nurse practitioner with over 10 years in practice, seeing patients from ages 2 weeks to 97. The practice mainly offers primary and minor urgent care and physicals, along with a long menu of spa and aesthetic treatments such as IV therapy, an infrared sauna blanket, microdermabrasion, chemical peels, lip filler and Xeomin.

Two of its services fall within this listing. Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy is offered in pellet form. In its own words: "Here at Small Town Wellness, I use pellet form for replacement." The weight loss injections use semaglutide, a medication given by weekly injection, which the practice describes as similar to Ozempic, Mounjaro and Wegovy. The office is open Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 8am to 5pm, closed Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday, and open Friday by appointment only. Its Google listing shows a rating of 5 from 2 reviews.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices for the hormone program, the weight loss injections or the consultation. It does not say whether a weight loss fee includes the medication, what the semaglutide costs, whether insurance is accepted, or whether there is a membership or cancellation policy. The one fee it states is a $50 service fee for no call/no shows, to be paid in advance of your next scheduled appointment, starting January 1, 2026. Call (816) 807-9497 for pricing before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

For weight loss, ask whether the semaglutide is brand-name or compounded, whether a monthly price covers the medication, and what each weekly injection costs. Ask who writes the prescription and who reviews it over time, and whether anyone besides Cynthia Stock, FNP-C, is involved. Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost.

For hormone therapy, ask which hormones are placed as pellets, since the office names pellets but does not say which hormones it uses. Ask what testing comes first, how often pellets are placed and what each visit costs. Ask whether any follow-up can be done by telehealth, because the office does not say. Finally, ask how to cancel a program, whether a fee applies, and whether the $50 no-show fee applies to visits cancelled with notice.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live in or near Independence, want a nurse practitioner's office for primary or urgent care along with pellet hormones or weight loss injections, and are ready to pay for the program yourself once you have prices in writing. If you need published prices, insurance billing or telehealth, call first, since the office does not state any of them.
