About Be Healthy & Well

What is Be Healthy & Well?

Be Healthy & Well is mainly a primary care and telehealth practice. Its main office is in Chesterfield, Virginia. It also lists offices in Fairfax and Richmond, Virginia, and St. Petersburg, Florida, which see patients by appointment only. Telehealth covers Virginia and Florida.

Weight management is one of several services, alongside urgent care, preventive care, men's and women's health, and medical cannabis certification. In its own words: "Our weight loss program combines FDA-approved medications, lifestyle coaching, and personalized health plans."

The medications it names are semaglutide (GLP-1), tirzepatide, phentermine, phentermine/topiramate, naltrexone/bupropion, Saxenda, Zepbound, and Wegovy. Four prescribers are listed: Tyra Tanner, ANP, DNP; Stephanie Bunch, FNP, MSN; Vanessa Knowles, FNP, MSN; and Shante Tucker, FNP, MSN. The clinic cites 25 years of combined experience, and its one Google review is five stars.

What does it cost?

Weight management visits are priced per visit. A new patient visit is $180, and a follow-up visit is $125. A re-establish visit after more than a year away is $180, and visits after 3 years count as new patient appointments. The clinic does not say whether medication is included in these prices.

Labs and an EKG are billed separately from the visit. If new labs are needed, the clinic sends you to LabCorp or Quest Diagnostics, and laboratory services are billed directly to insurance. It does not publish a price for its dietitian or coaching support.

Insurance is accepted, but some plans may not cover medical weight loss. The clinic accepts most major plans, including Medicare and Medicaid depending on the state, but it does not say whether those cover weight loss visits.

What should you ask before you book?

Does the $180 or $125 price include the medication? If not, what does the medication cost on top of it?

Are any of the medications compounded, or are they all brand-name products? The clinic names Saxenda, Zepbound, and Wegovy but does not say how the others are supplied.

Which of the four prescribers will see you for weight loss? The clinic does not say.

What will labs and an EKG cost if your plan does not pay for them? Ask whether your plan needs prior authorization for the medication, since some medications may require it.

Does the clinic charge a membership fee, and what happens if you cancel? It does not publish cancellation terms. Confirm which office or telehealth option serves your state before you book. Call 804-533-7444 to ask.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live in Virginia or Florida, want a visit by video or in person, and are ready to pin down medication and lab costs before you book. If you need one fixed monthly price that covers everything, ask for that in writing first, since the clinic does not publish one.
