Question 1

How many obesity-medicine and endocrinology clinics are in Connecticut?

Accepted Answer

Our directory lists 242 Connecticut practices whose true primary specialty on file is obesity medicine, endocrinology, or bariatric care, plus 175 clinics and medical centers and 25 primary-care clinicians whose CMS record also lists an obesity-medicine or endocrinology taxonomy — 442 in total across 77 Connecticut cities. Every count comes from the CMS National Provider registry (NPPES) taxonomy on file, not a survey of services.

Question 2

Do these Connecticut clinics prescribe semaglutide or tirzepatide?

Accepted Answer

The registry records each practice's specialty taxonomy, not the specific medications it prescribes or its current service menu. Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism is the most common taxonomy bucket among Connecticut listings in this directory (239 of 442 practices). Obesity-medicine and endocrinology practices commonly prescribe GLP-1 medications like semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic) and tirzepatide (Zepbound, Mounjaro), but we can't confirm any individual Connecticut clinic's offerings from the registry alone — call the practice directly to confirm availability, pricing, and new-patient status before booking.

Question 3

Is it cheaper to see a clinic in person or use telehealth in Connecticut?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your insurance and the medication. An in-person visit plus a brand-name prescription (Wegovy or Zepbound) can run $1,000-$1,350 per month without insurance, while licensed telehealth providers shipping compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide directly to Connecticut addresses average around $224/month cash-pay. See our full list of GLP-1 telehealth providers serving Connecticut in the "Prefer Telehealth?" section above.

Question 4

How did you verify these Connecticut clinics?

Accepted Answer

Every listing is sourced from the CMS National Provider registry (NPPES), the federal database of enumerated healthcare providers. Across Connecticut we verified 242 primary-specialty practices, 175 facility-type listings, and 25 primary-care clinicians carrying a secondary obesity-medicine taxonomy this way — New Haven has the most listings of any Connecticut city in the directory, with 58. Listing reflects the taxonomy on file — it is not an endorsement, and not a confirmation of GLP-1 availability, cash-pay pricing, or new-patient status.
