Our rankings are based on a weighted scoring system that considers multiple factors. Patient ratings carry the most weight, followed by the number of verified reviews, provider credentials (including ABOM board certification in obesity medicine), and verification level. We also factor in pricing transparency, whether the clinic is accepting new patients, and telehealth availability. Clinics that provide clear pricing information, accept insurance, and offer flexible visit options score higher because these factors directly affect your ability to access and afford treatment. Every clinic listed has been verified through NPI Registry data.

Chicago's GLP-1 market benefits from a healthcare infrastructure that goes toe-to-toe with anywhere in the country. Northwestern, Rush, and UChicago Medicine all have dedicated obesity medicine programs, and many of the city's best independent providers trained at these institutions. That academic pipeline means Chicago patients generally encounter well-qualified physicians, though quality still varies at the individual practice level.
The North Side vs South Side distinction matters for healthcare access, just like it does for everything else. GLP-1 providers cluster in the Loop, River North, Lincoln Park, and Lakeview. If you live in Pilsen, Bridgeport, or anywhere on the South Side, your closest in-person option might be a significant L ride or drive away. Suburban providers in Naperville, Schaumburg, and Oak Brook serve the collar counties. Telehealth has helped close some of this gap, but the disparity is real.
Chicago winters are the thing that national telehealth companies don't factor into their treatment plans. Five months of cold, limited daylight, and the kind of weather that turns a walk around the block into an act of defiance. The best local providers build seasonal strategies into their programs because they know a February polar vortex isn't an excuse for missing exercise. It's a legitimate barrier that requires a different approach. If your provider's plan doesn't account for Chicago winter, they're not from here.
Food in this city isn't fuel. It's identity. Italian beef dipped with giardiniera from Al's, a Chicago dog dragged through the garden (no ketchup, ever), jibaritos in Humboldt Park, deep-dish when the occasion calls for it (though most locals eat tavern-style thin-cut more often). The best GLP-1 providers here don't try to take you out of Chicago's food culture. They help the medication change how you relate to it.
Chicago GLP-1 programs range from $300 to $800 a month. Loop and North Side practices tend to charge more. Suburban providers and telehealth options are generally more competitively priced.
Many Illinois commercial plans now cover GLP-1 medications with prior authorization. Illinois Medicaid covers GLP-1s only with a Type 2 diabetes diagnosis; Wegovy, Zepbound, and Saxenda are not covered for weight loss. Check your plan's formulary and be ready for a prior authorization process that can take a week or two.
About 29.1% for the city overall. But neighborhood-level data tells a different story: some South and West Side communities are above 40%, while North Side lakefront neighborhoods are well below 20%.
Illinois allows telehealth prescribing by licensed providers. GLP-1 medications can be prescribed via video consultation with a licensed Illinois physician, NP, or PA.
We email when local providers open, change pricing, or start accepting new patients.
