GLP-1 Weight Loss for Greeley Residents
Provider-directed GLP-1 weight loss for Greeley adults at Peak Medical Wellness in Fort Collins. Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide with personalized dosing, lab monitoring, and ongoing clinical support — 35 minutes west on Highway 34.
Greeley sits about 35 minutes from Peak Medical Wellness — west on Highway 34, then north on College Avenue or I-25 into Fort Collins. For a multi-month medical program with monthly labs and dose-adjustment visits, that drive becomes routine. Many Greeley patients pair appointments with errands or shopping in Fort Collins.
Our two-provider team — Cindy Dean, CNM, APN and Carolyn Bottone-Post, CNM, DNP, FACNM — sees Greeley patients regularly. The model is lab-first and provider-directed: real intake, real labs, and a treatment plan built around your specific history and goals rather than a one-size-fits-all injection protocol.
GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonists mimic a hormone your gut naturally releases after eating. They reduce hunger signals in the brain, slow gastric emptying so you feel full longer, and improve insulin response. The result is appetite control that lasts hours after a meal — and meaningful, sustained weight loss for most patients in supervised programs.
Two active ingredients lead the modern GLP-1 weight loss landscape: semaglutide and tirzepatide. Tirzepatide tends to produce greater average weight loss in clinical trials; semaglutide has a longer track record. Both are once-weekly subcutaneous injections that patients self-administer at home after brief in-clinic training.
Most patients searching for GLP-1 therapy in the Greeley area have come across the brand-name medications. Here's how the active ingredients map to those brands:
Semaglutide is the active ingredient in Ozempic® (FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes) and Wegovy® (FDA-approved for chronic weight management) — both manufactured by Novo Nordisk. The two products share the same active ingredient and differ mainly in FDA indication and packaging.
Tirzepatide is the active ingredient in Mounjaro® (FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes) and Zepbound® (FDA-approved for chronic weight management) — both manufactured by Eli Lilly. Mounjaro® and Zepbound® contain the same active ingredient at the same doses.
Peak Medical Wellness prescribes compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide — prepared by licensed United States compounding pharmacies — when clinically appropriate. Compounded formulations contain the same active ingredient as the brand-name products, but they are not interchangeable with FDA-approved branded medications and are dispensed under a different regulatory pathway. Compounded GLP-1 therapy is not a generic substitute for Ozempic®, Wegovy®, Mounjaro®, or Zepbound®.
We do not prescribe brand-name Ozempic®, Wegovy®, Mounjaro®, or Zepbound®. Greeley patients often choose compounded GLP-1 therapy for cost and supply reasons; others prefer brand-name medications when they're available and covered by insurance. Both are reasonable paths — and the right one depends on your medical history and goals.
Our program for Greeley patients is built around lab-first, provider-directed care:

GLP-1 weight loss treatment is generally appropriate for adults who meet certain medical and lifestyle criteria:
Many of our patients aren't severely overweight — they've plateaued, carry metabolic risk, or have already tried diets and need a more targeted clinical approach. Your initial consultation includes a candid discussion of whether GLP-1 therapy fits your situation.
Book a consultation to discuss your goals, review whether GLP-1 therapy fits your medical history, and get a personalized plan. Greeley patients are typically about 35 minutes away.
About 35 minutes from most of Greeley, depending on starting point and traffic. We're located at 2629 Redwing Rd, Suite 298 in southwest Fort Collins. The most common route from Greeley is west on Highway 34, then north on College Avenue or I-25 to Drake Road.
Initial consultations, intake labs, and in-clinic injection training happen in person at our Fort Collins clinic. Most follow-up dose adjustments can be coordinated by phone or message once you're established on a protocol, with periodic in-person visits for lab work and clinical reassessment.
We prescribe compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide — prepared by licensed United States compounding pharmacies — when clinically appropriate. Each prescription is provider-directed, with individualized dosing based on your labs, response, and goals. We also offer phentermine for patients who prefer or need a non-injectable option.
Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide contain the same active ingredient as their respective brand-name products, but they are not interchangeable with FDA-approved branded medications. They are prepared by licensed compounding pharmacies under a different regulatory pathway. They are not generic equivalents and are not FDA-approved finished products. Your provider will walk you through how this affects safety, supply, cost, and what to expect.
