Record provenance

Details are drawn from this provider's public record in the CMS National Provider Identifier registry, which CMS last updated on April 7, 2026.

Call to confirm current services, availability, and pricing.

What bariatric medicine means

Bariatric medicine centers on the medical (non-surgical) treatment of obesity: supervised weight-loss programs, prescription medications including GLP-1 receptor agonists, and long-term metabolic follow-up. Some bariatric practices also coordinate with or provide weight-loss surgery; ask whether this clinic's program is medical, surgical, or both.

Asking about GLP‑1 treatment at Alex Tse

Call (919) 852-3999 and ask these questions before booking:

  • ✓Do you currently prescribe GLP‑1 medications (semaglutide or tirzepatide) for weight loss?
  • ✓Do you work with my insurance, or is the program cash-pay — and what does a month cost all-in?
  • ✓Is the medication a brand-name product, or compounded by a compounding pharmacy?
  • ✓What follow-up is included for dose changes and side effects?

About compounded medications: A compounded drug is prepared by a state-licensed compounding pharmacy. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and are not reviewed by the FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality, and they are not the same as FDA-approved generic drugs. Ask any practice which it dispenses and which pharmacy prepares it.
