About Medcare Weight Loss Therapy
What is Medcare Weight Loss Therapy?
Medcare Weight Loss Therapy is a weight loss practice at 500 Washington Street Suite 1, Portsmouth, VA 23704. The phone number is 757-418-3567. Weight loss is its main service. It is led by Nurse Practitioner Bridgett Perry, in collaboration with Dr. Olivero, who is listed as a prescriber with no credential stated.
The medications it names are semaglutide and tirzepatide, along with the brand names Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus and Mounjaro. Its medication is compounded. In its own words: "Medication is compounded and dispensed by a licensed third-party pharmacy." Elsewhere, it describes semaglutide and tirzepatide as FDA-approved medications, so confirm which product you would actually receive.
Its listed services are personalized weight loss plans, health assessments, holistic nutrition support and telehealth. Consultations can be in person or virtual, follow-up visits may be virtual, and medication is delivered to your door. The clinic is open by appointment only. You call and leave a message with the time you would like to be seen. It also mentions suboxone prescriptions and help with medical cannabis card certification. It does not name hormone, peptide or longevity services.
What does it cost?
The GLP-1 program is listed at $199 a month for 0.25mg to 1mg, and $275 a month for 1.5mg to 2.5mg. Tirzepatide is listed at $389 a month for 2.5mg to 5mg and 7.5mg to 10mg, and $699 a month for 12.5mg to 15mg. The monthly price includes consultations, a personalized plan and a monthly medication supply shipped to you. Vitamin injections and IV treatments cost extra.
The clinic does not say whether insurance is accepted. It accepts Zelle, Venmo, Cash App, debit and credit cards, and does not take cash in the office. Membership works as a 30-day supply of medication, shipped every 30 days. It does not publish cancellation terms.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask who writes your prescription and who you will see at each visit. Ask for Dr. Olivero's credentials in writing. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded, since the clinic mentions both. Ask whether the monthly price covers lab work, follow-up visits and dose changes, or whether those cost extra. Ask how to cancel and whether shipments stop when you do. Ask whether any visit can be billed to insurance, and which states the telehealth service covers, because the clinic does not name them. Since hours are by appointment only, ask how scheduling works and how quickly you can be seen.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want medication-based weight loss care with a nurse practitioner, you expect to pay the full cost yourself, and you are comfortable with a compounded medication shipped to your home. If you need insurance billing, brand-name medication only, or a fixed office schedule, get those answers before you book.
