FAQs
Do you accept insurance for weight loss visits?
Yes—W8MD is among the few Philadelphia programs that accept health insurance for physician weight loss visits. Benefits vary by plan.
Are medications required?
No. Medications are not one-size-fits-all. Your physician will discuss if an FDA-approved option fits your profile, or design a non-medication path.
What about costs if my plan doesn’t cover meds?
We’ll outline cash-pay options and alternatives and help you compare choices.
Do you treat sleep disorders too?
Yes. We diagnose and treat sleep apnea, insomnia, and restless legs, which often improves weight outcomes.
