How many obesity-medicine and endocrinology clinics are in Kansas City?

Our directory lists 28 Kansas City practices whose true primary specialty on file is obesity medicine, endocrinology, or bariatric care, plus 20 clinics and medical centers and 1 primary-care clinician whose CMS record also lists an obesity-medicine or endocrinology taxonomy — 49 in total. That's roughly 9.6 per 100,000 residents. Every count comes from the CMS National Provider registry (NPPES) taxonomy on file, not a survey of services.

Do these Kansas City clinics prescribe semaglutide or tirzepatide?

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 Kansas City listings in this directory (25 of 49 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 Kansas City clinic's offerings from the registry alone — call the practice directly to confirm availability, pricing, and new-patient status before booking.

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

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 to Missouri addresses average around $189/month cash-pay.

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.
