How It Works
Your next step is simple.
01
See if care is a fit.
Answer a few questions about you and your health. We currently care for adults 18 and older in South Carolina.
02
Choose your appointment.
If you qualify, go straight to booking. Pick a time and pay for your $299 first visit.
03
Meet your physician.
Meet Dr. Robak by video, discuss your options, and build your plan together. Decide about ongoing care afterward.
Treatment decisions are made during your physician visit. Qualifying to book does not guarantee a prescription.
Meet your physician
One doctor. In your corner.
I kept seeing the same problem. Weight loss was never the main focus: one more thing squeezed into a short visit, or an app where you never see the same person twice.
I thought there should be a medical practice that simply specialized in weight loss. So I built one.
Theodore “TJ” Robak, MDBoard-certified in Obesity Medicine Founder, Simply Metabolic Physicians
Telemedicine convenience. Med spa attention. The authority of a real medical practice. One physician, one focus: your weight loss.
From telemedicine
The convenience.
✓100% online. Video visits from home, messaging between visits, no waiting room, no commute.
✓Questions answered without an appointment. Message your doctor. You do not have to book a visit to ask something.
✕No rotating bench of providers. Most platforms hand you to whoever is on shift. Here you see Dr. Robak, the same physician, every time.
From med spas
The personal attention.
✓Time and attention. An hour at your first visit, a plan built around you, and a physician who knows your history.
✓Care that is about you. Not one more thing squeezed into a short visit.
✕No upsells. No supplements, no add-ons, nothing that is not directly about your weight loss. That is all we treat.
From traditional practice
The real medicine.
✓A board-certified physician. Real evaluation, real prescriptions, and the judgment that comes from 10,000+ GLP-1 patients treated.
✓Medical authority. Prescriptions go to the licensed pharmacy you choose. Labs and safety are handled the way a physician handles them.
✕No 5-minute visit and a printout. No insurance deciding whether you get seen, no third parties between you and your doctor.
The result is a medical practice that treats one thing, run by one physician. Convenient like telemedicine, personal like a med spa, and real medicine throughout.
Ongoing care means the same physician, follow-up visits, dose adjustments, and messaging. There’s no membership decision to make today.
Continuing is your choice. If you continue weight-loss medication care with us, a membership is required.

Medication is separate from your visit.
GLP-1 medications can start as low as $149 per month self-pay through manufacturer programs,* or as low as $25 per month with insurance.* We help navigate coverage and prior authorization where applicable. Medication is paid to your pharmacy, never to us.
*Pricing information current as of September 4, 2026. Prices vary by medication and dose. Manufacturer eligibility, insurance coverage, prior-authorization approval, availability, and out-of-pocket costs vary and are not guaranteed. Confirm current pricing and coverage before making a treatment or financial decision.
The Visit Guarantee
You should feel it was worth it.
Visit satisfaction guarantee
“If you complete your initial visit and don't feel you got real value from it, tell me. I'll schedule one additional visit at no charge to make it right. If you're still not satisfied after that, I'll refund your $299 in full.”
The guarantee covers the value of the visit itself, not any particular treatment or outcome.
A few things to know
Before you start.
Can you prescribe Zepbound or Wegovy?
Yes, when clinically appropriate. Dr. Robak reviews your history and safety during your visit and determines whether medication is right for you. No prescription is guaranteed. If appropriate, it is sent that day to the licensed retail pharmacy you choose.
Is medication included in the $299?
No. The $299 includes your physician visit, written plan, and 14 days of messaging. Medication is paid separately to your pharmacy. Read about medication costs.
Can I use my insurance?
Visit and membership fees are paid directly to the practice and are not billed to insurance. Medication may be covered: when a prescription is appropriate, we pursue coverage and prior authorization where applicable, and manufacturer self-pay programs where it is not. Approval is never guaranteed.
Do I have to join a membership?
No membership is required for your first visit. You leave with your written plan whether or not you continue. Weight loss medication requires ongoing care, which, in our practice, requires a membership to deliver the best standard of care to you. The monthly plan can be cancelled anytime.
Who can book a visit?
Adults 18 and older who live in South Carolina. Visits are by video. The initial questions help determine whether you qualify to book; treatment decisions happen with the physician during your visit.
