New Health Kansas

New Health Kansas

A Kansas concierge and telehealth practice stating coast-to-coast telehealth reach, where weight management is built from basal metabolic rate, hormone balance and BMI rather than BMI alone. The programme includes nutritional counselling, regular follow-ups by text, lab reviews to address deficiencies, and a monthly vitamin cocktail. It runs a published five-phase system with weight loss and baseline testing in phase one.

What stands out

  • Builds the treatment plan from basal metabolic rate and hormone panels alongside BMI, which is a more complete metabolic picture than the BMI-only screening most of this directory uses.
  • Includes lab review and supplement guidance rather than treating labs as an optional extra.
  • Uses text message for regular follow-up, which is practical but a thinner channel than a scheduled visit for a medication requiring titration.
  • Publishes a five-phase system with weight loss and baseline testing in the first phase.
  • Uses 'fast and affordable weight loss' framing alongside the more careful metabolic language.
  • Does not identify the weight loss medication, or state whether it is a GLP-1.
  • No pricing is published for any part of the programme.

Questions to ask before you pay

These are things we could not settle from published pages, or that we think are easy to misread. Get answers in writing.

  • What does the programme cost, and is medication included?
  • Which medication is prescribed — is it a GLP-1, branded or compounded?
  • Is telehealth genuinely available in your state? The site claims coast-to-coast coverage without listing states.
  • What lab panels are run and what do they cost?
  • How often is there an actual consultation, as opposed to a text follow-up?
  • No refund or cancellation terms are published.

May suit

Someone who wants metabolic and hormone testing to inform the plan, and is comfortable with text-based follow-up between visits.

Limitations

  • No published pricing.
  • The medication is not identified.
  • State coverage is claimed broadly but not listed.
  • Follow-up is largely by text.
  • No refund, cancellation or published clinical criteria.

Frequently asked

Is basal metabolic rate testing useful before a GLP-1?

It can be. BMR measurement gives a real figure for energy expenditure rather than an estimate from height and weight, which helps set a realistic calorie target and — more usefully — gives a baseline to compare against later, since metabolic rate falls as you lose weight and lean mass. It is not required to prescribe a GLP-1, and it is not a substitute for the standard safety labs. Ask what is being measured, how, and what it changes about your plan.
