Everest Diabetes and Weight Loss describes a Connecticut telehealth practice led by nurse practitioner Geeta Sharma. Its public offer separates the ongoing clinical membership from medication costs. That makes it a different purchasing model from programs that advertise one combined medicine-and-care price.
We checked its homepage, weight-loss page and FAQ on October 15, 2026. We did not book a visit, verify professional credentials independently or measure treatment outcomes. Our review examines the published service and the payment questions that remain before enrollment.
The quick read
- The monthly clinical membership is advertised at $79, excluding medication.
- Public medication ranges are $159–$299 for semaglutide and $249–$399 for tirzepatide.
- The site describes telehealth-only care in Connecticut and a separate appointment-cancellation fee.
A Connecticut telehealth practice
The homepage identifies Geeta Sharma, DNP, NP-C and describes telemedicine-only visits. A listed mailing address should not be read as an invitation to attend an in-person appointment. The site advertises a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation followed by clinician visits through a secure link. Confirm physical-location eligibility and available appointment times before choosing this regional service.
Membership and medicine are separate charges
The weight-loss page lists a $79 monthly membership covering practitioner visits, messaging, clinically appropriate refills and help checking medication coverage. It lists semaglutide medication at $159–$299 monthly and tirzepatide at $249–$399. If those quoted ranges and membership apply together, their sum is $238–$378 or $328–$478 before other charges. That arithmetic is illustrative, not a verified individual checkout total.
Starter packages need their own inclusion check
The same page advertises a limited-time nine-week semaglutide package for $399 and an eight-week tirzepatide package for $549. We did not establish whether the $79 membership is included in those specials or separately payable. Ask which services, medication supply and follow-up period the package covers and what renewal costs afterward. Do not add or remove the membership fee from a promotional total without confirmation.
Insurance assistance is not insurance coverage
The FAQ says the practice does not accept insurance for its services, while medicine and laboratory coverage may be available through the patient’s plan. HSA/FSA payments and a receipt or superbill are discussed, but they do not guarantee reimbursement. Ask the insurer and dispensing pharmacy about the exact prescription rather than treating membership assistance as an approval decision.
Separate appointment cancellation from membership exit
The program advertises no long-term commitment and cancellation at any time. The FAQ separately requests at least 48 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule an appointment, with a possible $50 late-cancellation or no-show fee. That is an appointment rule, not a complete prescription-refund policy. Ask how membership cancellation affects pending medication orders, prepaid packages and access to records.
Our assessment: a useful care-first price structure
Everest clearly separates clinical membership from medication, but promotional packages and individual coverage still need a written quote. Its page discusses access to branded or compounded options; confirm the actual product. FDA’s compounding explanation prevents transferring brand approval to a compounded preparation. The website’s weight-loss figures are not independently audited clinic outcomes in this review. Compare the planned visit schedule and total cost using our local-versus-online guide.
