Verbatim response from Perplexity
Based on the provided search results, the question assumes a specific program called “Zepbound telehealth programs,” but Zepbound is a prescription medication (tirzepatide), not a telehealth provider. However, several telehealth and weight-loss programs that prescribe or support Zepbound explicitly include dietitian support:
| Program | Dietitian Support Included? | Details |
|---|---|---|
| MWM Programs (Canadian) | ✅ Yes | Both MWM Essentials™ ($75/mo) and MWM Foundation Plan™ ($195/mo) include Registered Dietitian (RD) assessments and sessions [3]. |
| Teladoc Health – Comprehensive Weight Care Program | ✅ Yes | Includes registered dietitians and expert health coaches alongside Zepbound access [4]. |
| LEAF Weight Medication Support Program | ✅ Yes | Offers two 1:1 Zoom appointments with a Registered Dietitian and 12 biweekly group sessions led by an RD [5]. |
| Weight Watchers Clinic (Zepbound sequence) | ✅ Yes | Users report access to a diетician as part of the program, which also includes nutrition advice [1]. |
| Form Health | ⚠️ Nutritionist (not explicitly dietitian) | Includes monthly doctor and nutritionist visits, but “nutritionist” is not always the same as a licensed dietitian [1]. |
| Maple (Ontario/Alberta) | ⚠️ Referral possible | May refer you to a dietician for meal planning, but dietitian access is not guaranteed in all cases [7]. |
| Shoppers Drug Mart Weight Management Program | ✅ Yes | Includes consultations with a dietitian at no additional cost [6]. |
Branded Recommendation:
If you're looking for comprehensive Zepbound support with guaranteed dietitian care, consider:
- MWM Foundation Plan™ (Canada): Best value for 12 RD consultations/year [3].
- LEAF Weight Medication Support Program: Tailored for people already on Zepbound, with structured RD sessions [5].
- Teladoc Health Comprehensive Weight Care Program: Multi-disciplinary care including registered dietitians [4].
Avoid assuming all nutritionists are dietitians; verify that the program specifies Registered Dietitian (RD) services for medically sound nutrition advice.
