CINCINNATI — The Little Clinic, an offshoot of Kroger Health that operates 226 clinics in the U.S., has announced a new approach to its weight management program. When medically appropriate, the program will supplement holistic and personalized medical support with treatment options like GLP-1s such as Wegovy, Zepabound and others. The program starts at $99 per visit either in-person or via telehealth. The Little Clinic accepts insurance plans to help cover the program’s costs.
The program is available to patients in all states where The Little Clinic operates (Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee and Virginia.)
The newly restructured program offerings include evidence-based and comprehensive options like resources on nutritious eating, ongoing medical visits from a board-certified clinical provide, routine coaching, community support, and, if appropriate, prescribed, FDA approved medical treatments, including GLP-1s.
Kroger Health’s Food as Medicine philosophy is emphasized by the new program, focusing on food playing a key role in preventing illness and ongoing health maintenance. “Personalized and convenient care are at the center of everything we do,” said Theresa Riggs, Cincinnati/Dayton Division Little Clinic regional clinical leader. “Each treatment plan is personalized by licensed healthcare providers based on a patient’s health history as well as their overall health and wellness goals. We want to help our patients get and stay healthy. We value every aspect of their healthcare journey, and we are here to help them feel better and lead the healthiest life possible.”
