About your pharmacyGetting care in Van Buren.
Weight loss care in Van Buren through Gentle Health works the same as it does across Arkansas: you complete a short online intake, meet an Arkansas-licensed physician over video, and, if treatment is right for you, your medication ships overnight from a licensed US pharmacy to your door. There is no waiting room, and every step from intake to follow-up happens from home.
The monthly price in Van Buren matches the rest of Arkansas and covers the medication, every clinician visit, and overnight shipping. Semaglutide starts at $112/month and tirzepatide at $169/month, with no membership fee; the intake and first visit are free.
Why our prices are lower.
Our prices are lower for three simple reasons. First, we use compounded medication — the same active ingredient as the brand-name versions, made to order by a licensed US pharmacy — so you're not paying extra for the brand name. Second, we charge one all-in monthly price that includes your visits and shipping, instead of a separate monthly membership fee on top of your medication. Third, we keep our marketing lean — we don't pad prices to fund big advertising campaigns, so more of what you pay goes toward your actual care.

From a licensed US pharmacy to your door.
Your medication is dispensed by a licensed US compounding pharmacy and shipped overnight, refrigerated (cold-chain), straight to your door. Here's what stands behind every shipment.
Licensed US compounding pharmacy
Your prescription is filled individually for you by a state-licensed US compounding pharmacy, as permitted under Section 503A of the federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
Accredited, independently scrutinized
Our pharmacy holds PCAB accreditation (Pharmacy Compounding Accreditation Board) — a voluntary standard requiring product testing, staff training, and quality practices beyond state minimums.
Every batch independently tested
Every batch of injectable medication is tested by an independent, accredited US laboratory for sterility and endotoxins, and we keep the Certificates of Analysis (COAs) on file.
What you should know.
Do I need to visit a clinic in Van Buren?
No. Care is fully remote: your visits are video calls with an Arkansas-licensed physician, and a licensed US pharmacy ships your medication overnight to your Van Buren address. Nothing about treatment requires leaving home.
Can I get semaglutide or tirzepatide in Van Buren?
Yes. Both are available to Van Buren patients as once-daily oral drops or a weekly injection. Compounded semaglutide (the active ingredient in Wegovy and Ozempic) starts at $112/month, and compounded tirzepatide (the active ingredient in Zepbound and Mounjaro) starts at $169/month, medication included. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved; your clinician goes over exactly what you would be taking at your visit.
How much does GLP-1 treatment cost in Van Buren?
The same flat price as everywhere in Arkansas: semaglutide from $112/month (once-daily oral drops) or $135/month (weekly injections), and tirzepatide from $169/month. The price includes the medication itself, your clinician visits, and overnight shipping to Van Buren. There is no membership fee, and the intake and first visit are free.
How does medication delivery work in Van Buren?
Your prescription is filled by a licensed US compounding pharmacy and shipped overnight in refrigerated, cold-chain packaging to your door in Van Buren. There is nothing to pick up, and shipping is included in the monthly price.
How fast does medication arrive in Van Buren?
Once your clinician writes your prescription and the pharmacy fills it, your medication ships overnight and typically arrives the next business day. Delivery to your Van Buren address is just as fast as anywhere else in Arkansas.
Do you take insurance?
Not at this time. We charge one flat monthly price with the medication, clinician visits, and shipping included, so there are no prior authorizations or surprise bills. HSA and FSA cards are accepted at checkout, and we provide itemized receipts and a Letter of Medical Necessity on request.
Who prescribes my medication?
James Simmons, MD, our medical director, is licensed by the Arkansas State Medical Board (license E-14098) and board-certified in emergency medicine. He reviews your intake, meets with you over video, and supervises your treatment over time.
