Online weight care, guided by licensed providers.
No judgment, no sales pitch, and no prescription until a provider is confident it is the right call for you.
Prescription treatment only when clinically appropriate.
You are not the reason this has been hard.
Appetite, metabolism, medical history, sleep, stress, medicines, and environment can all influence weight. Medical weight care looks beyond willpower and considers the full picture.
GLP-1–based treatments work with hormone pathways involved in appetite and food intake. They are not appropriate for everyone, and they work best as part of broader, ongoing care.
Our approachUnderstand your options before anyone prescribes anything.
Medication is one part of care, not the whole of it. Here is what each option is, how it works, and what to raise with your provider, all in plain language.
Prescription weight-management medications
Options specifically used in provider-guided chronic weight care.
Separate wellness topics
Distinct options with different evidence, uses, and clinical considerations.
Online care in three clear steps.
- First
Share your goals
Complete a focused online intake about your health, history, and weight-care goals.
- Then
Meet your provider
A licensed provider reviews your information and discusses options that may fit.
- Ongoing
Follow your plan
If treatment is appropriate, begin with clear guidance and ongoing follow-up.

What patients say once they are in it.
I expected a form and a prescription. I got a forty-minute conversation about my thyroid history first, and that changed how I felt about the whole thing.
Patient initialsWith Vela 8 monthsThe first month was rough and I nearly quit. Someone called me, we dropped the dose, and it settled. That call is the only reason I am still here.
Patient initialsWith Vela 1 yearNobody promised me a number. They told me what the medication does, what it does not do, and what I would still have to handle myself.

Is Vela completely online?
Yes. The care experience is online, from initial intake through provider review and follow-up. Availability depends on provider licensure in your state.
Am I guaranteed medication?
No. Your intake starts an evaluation, not a purchase. A licensed provider decides whether a prescription is appropriate for you.
Which treatment is best?
There is no single best option for everyone. Health history, goals, other medicines, side-effect considerations, and access all shape the recommendation.
Start with a conversation, not a checkout.
Tell us where you are today. A provider will help you work out what makes sense next, including whether that is nothing at all.
