About This Clinician
Janessa Hegstrom is a Nurse Practitioner clinician in Grand Forks whose NPPES record also lists an obesity-medicine or bariatric-medicine taxonomy as a secondary specialty.

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 Janessa Hegstrom's specific protocol, services, or pricing. Confirm what a visit involves directly with the practice — 701-780-2300.
