The Restora Health Program | GLP-1 Metabolic Medicine

What's Included

Every Restora Health membership includes all six pillars of care — not a la carte, not tiered. One program. Everything included.

Physician Consultation

Your program begins with a dedicated 30-minute telehealth consultation with Dr. Frayda Kresch, MD — not a physician's assistant, not a questionnaire. Dr. Kresch reviews your complete history, current medications, metabolic risk factors, and personal goals before recommending any treatment. Ongoing monthly check-ins are included to adjust your protocol as your body responds and your goals evolve. This is medicine practiced the way it should be: with a real physician who knows your name and your chart.

Comprehensive Metabolic Labs

Dr. Kresch orders a far more comprehensive panel than a standard annual physical. In addition to a complete metabolic panel, CBC, and lipid profile, your labs include ApoB, Lp(a), and hs-CRP — biomarkers that the brand-new 2026 ACC/AHA cardiology guidelines now recommend for every adult but that most physicians still don't order. She also evaluates homocysteine, fasting insulin, and HOMA-IR to detect insulin resistance years before it appears as elevated blood sugar. Labs are reviewed personally by Dr. Kresch and used to build your individualized protocol.

GLP-1 Prescription

Dr. Kresch's first-choice GLP-1 medication is branded Zepbound (tirzepatide) — an FDA-approved, dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist manufactured by Eli Lilly at pharmaceutical-grade standards. In clinical trials, tirzepatide demonstrated up to 22.5% mean body weight reduction over 72 weeks. Dr. Kresch titrates your dose carefully, monitors for side effects, and adjusts your protocol based on how your body responds. If insurance denies Zepbound, she works with you on alternatives — see our drug-agnostic guarantee below.

Ongoing Physician Access

Between visits, you have direct access to Dr. Kresch through Cerbo — our HIPAA-compliant EHR and patient portal. Send a message when nausea hits on a new dose. Ask a question about your labs. Report a side effect or a change in another medication. Dr. Kresch reviews and responds personally — no triage system, no routed tickets, no "medical team" that isn't the physician who knows your chart. This access is included in your membership at no additional charge and is what distinguishes Restora from a prescription-only service.

Personalized Supplement Protocol

GLP-1 medications reduce appetite significantly, which means patients who don't supplement thoughtfully can lose muscle and develop nutritional deficiencies. Dr. Kresch builds a supplement protocol based on your actual lab results — not a generic stack off a shelf. Protocols commonly include magnesium, vitamin D3/K2, B-complex, omega-3s, and targeted muscle-preserving amino acids like leucine and creatine. Supplements are dispensed through Fullscript, a professional-grade pharmacy-level dispensary, at a discount off retail pricing.

Drug-Agnostic Continuity

Your membership is with Restora Health — not with any specific medication. If your insurance denies Zepbound, Dr. Kresch will help you navigate appeals, explore semaglutide (Wegovy/Ozempic), or evaluate other FDA-approved options. If supply disruptions affect your current medication, she will adjust your protocol without interruption to your care. The physician relationship is the constant. The medication is a variable. This is the exact opposite of how most telehealth "GLP-1 services" are structured — because most are built around a specific compound, not around you.

The 5 Pillars of What Makes Us Different

Not just what we do — but why it matters for you.

Real Physician. Every Time.

Most telehealth "GLP-1 services" are staffed by nurse practitioners or PAs, or they route you through a questionnaire with no physician contact at all. At Restora Health, Dr. Kresch is your physician — every consultation, every message, every prescription decision. You always know who is responsible for your care and why every decision was made. This is what it means to have a doctor, not a platform.

Metabolic Medicine — Not Just Weight Loss.

GLP-1 medications have documented benefits far beyond weight: reduction in cardiovascular events (SURMOUNT-MMO trial), improvement in insulin resistance, reduction in NAFLD, and emerging data on cognitive function. Dr. Kresch treats your metabolic health as a whole system — not just a number on a scale. Your labs, your cardiovascular risk markers, your muscle mass, your energy — all of it is monitored and managed as part of your care.

Drug-Agnostic. Your Care Survives Everything.

Supply chains break. Insurance denies. New medications emerge. Your care at Restora Health is built around the physician relationship — not any single drug. If something changes with your medication, Dr. Kresch adapts your protocol. If better options become available, you'll know. You are not locked into any compound. You are enrolled in a physician-managed metabolic medicine program.

Private, Discreet, Personal.

Many patients choose Restora Health because they want their metabolic care handled outside their employer insurance, their primary care chart, or their family physician's office. As a cash-pay telehealth practice, your care stays between you and Dr. Kresch. Your information is protected by HIPAA and handled exclusively through Cerbo EHR — a medical-grade platform. No marketing pixels on your health data. No third-party data sharing for advertising.

Transparent. No Surprises.

The consultation is $150. Membership is $299/month. Labs are ordered through your insurance or self-pay. Medications are obtained through your pharmacy with or without insurance. Supplements are optional through Fullscript. There are no hidden fees, no upsells, no "premium tier." You know exactly what you're paying for before you book. If the economics don't work for you, Dr. Kresch will tell you honestly. That's what a physician does.

Transparent, Simple Pricing

A physician-led metabolic program — not a pill subscription.
