Before calling Slim Now TN, write down two questions: “What would my first payment actually be?” and “Would I need to visit Murfreesboro?” They arise directly from the practice’s public documentation. A general first-month offer lists $195, while its initial semaglutide option lists $85 per month. The site also advertises Tennessee telehealth alongside instructions for a first administration in the office. Neither difference is resolved clearly enough to plan enrollment without asking.
Slim Now TN documents a weight-management practice offering semaglutide and tirzepatide, a physical Tennessee location, named clinicians and medication-specific monthly prices. That gives prospective patients more to work with than an advertisement alone. This review examines what those details let you ask and what remains unconfirmed. The pages were consulted October 19, 2026; the purpose is practical appointment preparation, not a recommendation of a particular medicine or an independent verification of the practice’s credentials.

Start by checking whether the appointment fits your location
Slim Now TN lists its office at 5607 Franklin Rd, Murfreesboro, TN 37128. Advertised hours are Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Friday, 8 a.m. to noon; and every other Saturday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. These are useful planning details, but the alternating Saturday schedule requires confirmation. The public documentation does not establish which appointment types are offered during each block or whether a particular clinician is available then.
The practice explicitly offers telehealth visits in Tennessee. That statement should not be expanded into nationwide access, and it does not explain whether an entire course of care can happen remotely. Initial medication listings describe instructions and a first administration in the office. Ask whether that visit applies to all new patients, whether remote patients follow a different process, and how subsequent progress checks and vital-sign measurements are completed.
To request a consultation, the site directs patients to the office at 615-439-6929 or info@slimnowtn.com; it also offers an appointment-request form. No response deadline is documented. A useful first message would ask about appointment format, office attendance and the documents needed to schedule, without assuming the form completes enrollment. Our first questions for a GLP-1 program can help organize that initial conversation.
Ask for the first bill, not just the advertised monthly price
The most important pricing question is which posted offer would apply to your appointment. Slim Now TN says, “For the first month we offer this program for $195,” followed by a payment schedule. Yet its semaglutide listing labels the 0.25 mg option at $85 per month and includes an initial consultation. The tirzepatide 2.5 mg listing is $195 per month with an initial consultation. The documentation does not reconcile the general offer with every medication-specific listing.
The table below preserves the site’s medication and presentation labels; these are commercial listings, not instructions for choosing or changing treatment. The general medication explanation describes injections under the skin, but the listings do not identify a specific brand, concentration, device or total quantity. The site also warns that the price increases if a patient chooses to increase dosage. That wording describes billing, not a clinical recommendation or authorization to adjust medication independently.
Ask the office for an itemized first-payment quote and the expected charge for the next billing period. Published amounts use “per Month” or “/mo,” without explaining the collection date or defining the interval as four weeks. The documentation does not settle laboratory charges, taxes, other fees or insurance arrangements. Our questions beyond the monthly price offer a way to separate a posted medication listing from a confirmed bill.
| Medication | Posted presentation and monthly price | Listed service context |
|---|---|---|
| Semaglutide | 0.25 mg: $85 | Initial consultation, use instructions and first administration in office |
| Semaglutide | 0.50 mg: $125; 1 mg: $200 | Monthly provider checkup; progress and vital-sign measurements |
| Semaglutide | 1.50 mg: $250; 2 mg: $300 | Monthly provider checkup; progress and vital-sign measurements |
| Tirzepatide | 2.5 mg: $195 | Initial consultation, use instructions and first administration in office |
| Tirzepatide | 5 mg: $295; 7.5 mg: $395; 10 mg: $495 | Monthly provider checkup; progress and vital-sign measurements |
Identify the medicine before comparing the offer
Slim Now TN advertises semaglutide and tirzepatide, but those ingredient names do not fully identify what a patient would receive. The consulted pages do not establish brands, manufacturers, the dispensing pharmacy or whether the preparations are commercially manufactured or compounded. A “Pharmacy Partner” link is referenced, but its destination content was not available in the consulted documentation. That leaves a meaningful product-identification gap rather than evidence of a particular pharmacy arrangement.
Before paying for medication, ask for its complete name, formulation, route, presentation, pharmacy and labeling information. Also ask whether the amount shown on the pricing page describes an administration amount or another aspect of the listing, and what quantity is supplied for the billed period. The page’s monthly prices and home-administration language do not establish concentration, container size or number of administrations. Our medication-identification questions explain why those distinctions matter when comparing offers.
FDA approval attaches to a specific product, not to a clinic or a pharmacy. FDA says compounded preparations are not approved and do not undergo its premarket review for safety, effectiveness and quality; that fact alone does not establish clinical inequivalence. FDA recommends compounded drugs when an individual’s medical needs cannot be met by an approved drug, with a prescription and a state-licensed pharmacy. Nothing in this context establishes which product Slim Now TN supplies.
Clarify who evaluates you and what the consultation covers
The practice names several clinicians rather than describing an entirely anonymous care team. Madison Umbeck is listed as FNP-C, MSCP and described as a board-certified family nurse practitioner. The site attributes her nursing bachelor’s degree to Saint Louis University and her nursing master’s degree to Belmont University. These are provider-published credentials, not independent license verification. Ask who will conduct your own initial evaluation and who will be responsible for prescribing and later questions.
J. Seth Weathersby is identified as owner and PA-C, with an exercise-science bachelor’s degree and a Master’s of Medicine from Trevecca Nazarene University. The practice also says he serves on Tennessee’s state board for physician assistants and has more than 20 years of urgent-care experience. Shelby Turvey is listed as FNP-C with more than 30 years in healthcare. These descriptions identify physician-assistant and nurse-practitioner roles; they should not be rewritten as claims that every consultation is with a physician.
The public pages do not specify a complete GLP-1 evaluation protocol, minimum age, BMI criteria, required laboratory work or exclusion criteria. Ask what records, medication lists and test results the clinician needs, and whether evaluation costs remain payable if medication is not prescribed. NIDDK describes medication selection as a discussion of benefits, side effects, health conditions, other medicines, family history and cost. That general context does not establish Slim Now TN’s eligibility rules or guarantee a prescription.
Trace the handoff from office instruction to home administration
Initial options describe medication-use instructions and a first administration in the office. The tables also describe medication for administration at home. Those are useful service details, but they do not establish whether patients leave with medication, collect it from a pharmacy or receive a shipment. Ask who provides the product, when it becomes available, whether any fulfillment fee applies, and whom to contact if the prescription and the item received do not match.
There is no documented shipping promise to evaluate: the consulted pages do not identify a carrier, delivery window, shipping charge or refrigeration procedure. Home administration is not the same as home delivery. For patients hoping to avoid repeated travel to Murfreesboro, this distinction could determine whether the arrangement is workable. Confirm the process for the first supply and later supplies separately, because a description of an initial office visit does not settle ongoing fulfillment.
If an injectable GLP-1 medicine is shipped, FDA explicitly advises not using it if it arrives warm or inadequately refrigerated and contacting the provider or dispensing pharmacy. That is general FDA guidance, not a report of a Slim Now TN delivery problem. FDA also reports medication-measurement and administration errors involving compounded products. Ask for clear, product-specific instructions and a way to resolve uncertainties with the prescriber or pharmacist rather than interpreting the website’s price labels as instructions.
Make monthly follow-up concrete before relying on it
The higher-priced medication listings describe a monthly checkup with a provider and measurement of progress and vital signs. That is a more specific promise than an unspecified membership, but it leaves important operational questions. Ask whether appointments must be booked by the patient, how long they last, what information is collected remotely, and whether the same clinician usually reviews progress. The public description does not establish how missed appointments affect medication access or charges.
Published office hours provide a routine contact window, not a documented after-hours clinical service. The consulted pages do not state response times, urgent-question procedures or a dedicated clinical messaging portal. Before starting, ask which contact route is appropriate for medication questions and what happens when the office is closed. Also confirm whether extra clinical visits or messages carry separate fees; including a monthly checkup does not establish unlimited access at no additional cost.
NIDDK emphasizes that follow-up concerns treatment response and tolerability, not merely renewed payments, and that treatment duration depends on response and side effects. Those principles help frame a useful discussion with Slim Now TN without supplying an individual treatment plan. Ask how the practice reviews whether ongoing care remains appropriate, how it communicates changes, and how a patient can obtain records or continue care elsewhere if circumstances change.
Separate the monthly service from payment and exit terms
A monthly price does not itself establish automatic renewal, a minimum commitment or a right to a refund. None of those terms is clearly documented in the consulted pages. Nor do the pages establish mandatory prepayment or an optional installment arrangement. Ask when payment is collected, whether a card remains on file, what authorizes another charge, and what happens if the clinician pauses treatment or an appointment is postponed.
Request cancellation and refund terms in writing before authorizing recurring payments, if recurring payments are part of the actual agreement. Useful questions include where cancellation requests go, whether a notice deadline applies, and which consultation or medication charges become nonrefundable. Do not assume canceling future care reverses an existing charge. Our questions before the next charge can help distinguish ending a service from qualifying for money back.
Insurance is another unresolved part of the bill. The documentation does not specify accepted plans, insurer reimbursement or laboratory coverage. NIDDK notes that some plans cover weight-management medicines and others do not; consultation coverage is a separate question from medication coverage. Ask Slim Now TN what it bills directly and what documentation it can provide, then confirm any claimed benefit with your health plan. A posted cash amount alone does not answer those questions.
Keep add-ons, advertising and privacy questions separate
Slim Now TN also advertises NAD+, listing a 50 mg option at $50 per month. This is a separate commercial offering, not evidence that it is necessary for GLP-1 care or included in a GLP-1 price. Its NAD+ section lists pregnancy or breastfeeding, active cancer, severe liver or renal failure and known NAD+ allergies as reasons not to take it. Those statements should not be repurposed as the practice’s GLP-1 eligibility criteria.
The site’s promotional weight-loss claims and comparisons do not establish measured results for this practice’s patients. Clinical research on semaglutide or tirzepatide likewise does not validate an unidentified formulation supplied by a particular clinic or predict an individual outcome. Ask what product and evidence support any specific claim made during consultation. A practical evaluation should focus on the actual proposed medicine, clinical assessment and follow-up responsibilities rather than treating promotional comparisons as a personalized forecast.
The privacy policy discusses website comments: it says form data, IP addresses and browser identifiers are collected, and comments and metadata are retained indefinitely. It also allows deletion requests with administrative, legal and security exceptions. Those provisions do not explain clinical-record retention or telehealth data handling. The consulted documentation did not include the HIPAA link’s content. Ask for the applicable clinical privacy notice and a secure way to send medical records before sharing sensitive information.
Questions & answers
Is Slim Now TN available outside Tennessee?
The practice advertises telehealth in Tennessee and an office in Murfreesboro. The consulted pages do not establish access in other states. Even Tennessee patients should ask whether initial office attendance is required, because the medication listings describe first administration in the office without explaining a remote alternative.
Would my first semaglutide payment be $85 or $195?
That requires confirmation from the office. The semaglutide 0.25 mg listing says $85 per month with an initial consultation, while a general program offer says $195 for the first month. Ask which applies to your proposed service and request an itemized quote rather than assuming either amount overrides the other.
Does Slim Now TN identify its dispensing pharmacy?
Not in the consulted documentation. A pharmacy-partner reference does not provide enough information to identify the dispensing business or the exact product. Ask for the pharmacy’s name, contact details and the medication’s complete description. The available evidence does not establish whether the products are branded, compounded or another specific formulation.
What is included after the initial appointment?
Subsequent medication listings describe monthly provider checkups, progress and vital-sign measurements, and medication for home administration. They do not establish unlimited messaging, laboratory coverage or shipping. Ask how these services work for your appointment format and whether additional visits, tests or fulfillment arrangements create separate charges.
Can I cancel after one month and receive a refund?
The consulted pages do not establish a minimum commitment, cancellation procedure or refund entitlement. Monthly pricing alone answers none of those questions. Obtain the applicable agreement before paying, including any notice deadline and treatment of medication already ordered or supplied. Ending future service does not automatically mean an earlier payment is refundable.
How do I arrange a consultation and know who I will see?
Call 615-439-6929, email info@slimnowtn.com or use the appointment-request form. The site lists nurse practitioners and a physician assistant, but does not assign a particular clinician to every consultation. Ask who will evaluate you, who will prescribe if appropriate, and who handles follow-up. A response-time commitment is not published.
Our assessment
Slim Now TN offers a concrete starting point for Tennessee patients: a physical office, named clinical staff, medication-specific prices and described monthly follow-up. Those details make a focused inquiry possible. The unresolved points are nevertheless central to enrollment: the conflicting first-month amounts, exact product and pharmacy, telehealth versus office requirements, fulfillment, and payment-exit terms. The most useful next step is to obtain those answers together in writing, then compare the proposed care and actual bill—not just the lowest advertised price. Missing public documentation is not proof that a service or safeguard is absent, but it is a reason to clarify it before committing.
