What to expect at a Nurse Practitioner visit

Nurse practitioners provide primary and specialty care and, depending on state scope-of-practice rules, prescribe independently or in collaboration with a physician. A GLP-1-related visit often includes:

  • •A health and medication history and goal-setting conversation.
  • •Screening labs where indicated before starting therapy.
  • •A discussion of GLP-1 options for diabetes or weight management.
  • •Follow-up to monitor response and adjust dose.

This is general guidance for nurse practitioner practices, not a description of Christina Vassallo's specific protocol, services, or pricing. Confirm what a visit involves directly with the practice — 973-706-2171.
