The short version
- The list contains ten questions covering provider experience, brand-name versus compounded options, total monthly cost, visit frequency, and lab work.
- One question asks for the total monthly cost including medication, visits, and labs rather than a medication price alone.
- Another asks whether the provider offers both brand-name and compounded options, and whether required lab work is covered by insurance.
- The list also requires asking how side effects are handled and what the maintenance approach is after reaching goal weight.
- Other questions cover nutritional counseling, lifestyle support, cancellation and refund policy, and whether patient references or testimonials are available.
- The article positions the list as a tool for becoming an informed patient rather than as a sales aid.
