About The Weight Place

What is The Weight Place?

The Weight Place is a medical weight loss practice with offices in Asheville, Arden and Brevard, North Carolina. It was established in Brevard in 2017. Dr. Bonnie Green and Carly Bartelsen are the prescribers named, and Dr. Green leads the one-on-one weight loss appointments. In its own words: "During your initial consultation, Dr. Green or her Nurse Practitioner will work with you to create an individualized weight loss plan based on your health, goals, and lifestyle."

Its services are GLP-1 medical weight loss, weight loss appointments, MIC/B12 and Booster MICC injections, and two cosmetic treatments, ViPeel and Botox. The GLP-1 medications it names are semaglutide and tirzepatide, along with Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus, Mounjaro and Zepbound. The GLP-1 medications are available to order for home delivery. Its Google rating is 5 from 6 reviews. The main phone number is (828) 884-7546.

This listing is for its Arden office at 600 Julian Ln Ste 620.

What does it cost?

The first visit is $125 for 45 minutes. Return visits are $55 for 15 minutes and are held monthly. MIC/B12 injections are $22, and Booster MICC is $25. ViPeel runs $275 to $300, and Botox is $13.95 per unit.

GLP-1 pricing is based on dosage, but it does not publish a price for semaglutide or tirzepatide. It does not say whether medication is included in visit prices. It says coverage varies by plan and medication, but it does not say whether it bills insurance. It does not publish membership or cancellation terms.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who would sign your prescription, since Dr. Green and Carly Bartelsen are both named as prescribers, and whether the first visit is with Dr. Green or her nurse practitioner. Ask whether the monthly fee includes the medication or whether it is billed separately, and what that medication costs at your dose. Compounded options are available for patients whose insurance does not cover the medication, so ask whether the drug you would receive is brand-name or compounded, and what each one costs.

Ask what lab work and follow-up beyond the $55 return visit would cost, whether insurance is accepted at all, and how cancellation works. Because each office keeps its own days, ask which days and hours apply to the office you would use.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want a medical weight loss practice in Asheville, Arden or Brevard and you are ready to ask about GLP-1 prices, medication and insurance before you commit. If you need a firm monthly price for the medication itself, it is worth calling first to get that number in writing.
