TelePlus Care is a virtual clinic serving Burlington, Ontario with licensed doctors who prescribe Health Canada-approved GLP-1 medications — Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro — for adults with a BMI of 30+, or 27+ with a weight-related condition. Visits are by video, with structured follow-up and prescriptions filled locally.
- Eligibility for GLP-1 weight management generally requires a BMI of 30 kg/m squared or higher, or 27 kg/m squared or higher with at least one weight-related condition such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, prediabetes, or sleep apnea, per Obesity Canada 2020 guidelines.
- Average trial weight loss at maintenance dose: Wegovy approximately 14.9% over 68 weeks, Ozempic 12-15%, and Mounjaro 15-22.5% over 72 weeks, when combined with diet and activity changes.
- Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro are weekly subcutaneous injections; Wegovy is Health Canada-approved on-label for chronic weight management, while Ozempic and Mounjaro are approved for Type 2 diabetes and prescribed off-label for weight loss.
- Local pharmacy pathway: restricted to simple cases; virtual doctor care is available when a doctor assessment is needed
Clinical content is reviewed for accuracy and scope. TelePlus Care appointments proceed only when clinically appropriate after a real assessment, and the doctor will explain the next step if virtual care is not the right fit.
How an Online Weight Loss Clinic Works for Burlington Residents
TelePlus Care delivers weight management care to Burlington entirely online — no commute to a clinic in Aldershot, Roseland, or Orchard, and no waiting room. You book a video or phone consultation, complete a detailed intake covering your weight history, current medications, and any weight-related conditions, and then meet a licensed doctor who reviews your BMI and overall health. If recent bloodwork is needed, your doctor can issue a lab requisition you complete at a local Burlington collection site. When a GLP-1 medication is clinically appropriate, a prescription is sent to any pharmacy you choose across Burlington. The same medical standards used in an in-person clinic apply: assessment, screening, prescribing, and follow-up. Whether you live near Burlington GO, Mapleview, or Alton Village, the workflow is identical, and most appointments are available forin a few business days without a family-doctor referral.

GLP-1 Medications: Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro
Burlington patients have several Health Canada-approved GLP-1 medications available for medical weight management. Each works by influencing appetite and blood-sugar regulation, but they differ in approval status, efficacy data, and supply. Your doctor matches the medication to your clinical picture rather than starting with a brand name. All three are weekly self-administered injections and should always be paired with nutrition, activity, and lifestyle changes for the best and most durable results.
- Wegovy (semaglutide 2.4 mg, weekly) — the only on-label semaglutide approved in Canada for chronic weight management; approximately 14.9% average body-weight loss in trials.
- Ozempic (semaglutide, weekly) — approved for Type 2 diabetes and prescribed off-label for weight loss; generally well-stocked; 12-15% average loss in trials.
- Mounjaro (tirzepatide, weekly) — a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist with the highest efficacy in head-to-head data (15-22.5%); prescribed off-label for weight loss.
- Your doctor reviews side effects, dosing, titration, and supply before choosing the right option for you.
Who Qualifies for Medical Weight Loss
Eligibility for GLP-1 weight management follows Obesity Canada's 2020 Clinical Practice Guidelines. Off-label prescribing of medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro for weight loss is legal in Ontario when clinically justified. Your TelePlus Care doctor confirms eligibility during your virtual visit and screens for conditions that would make these medications unsafe. Not everyone qualifies, and the assessment is individualized to your health history.
- Adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m squared or greater.
- Adults with a BMI of 27 kg/m squared or greater plus at least one weight-related condition — hypertension, dyslipidemia, Type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, or prediabetes.
- No personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2 syndrome.
- No history of pancreatitis.
- Not currently pregnant or planning pregnancy in the near term.
- A willingness to combine medication with nutrition, activity, and follow-up care.

Why Choose Medical Weight Management Over Fad Diets
Crash diets, detox programs, and unregulated supplements rarely produce lasting results, and many lead to regained weight and frustration. Medical weight management takes a different approach. At TelePlus Care, a licensed doctor evaluates the biological and medical factors behind weight gain, screens for conditions like prediabetes or sleep apnea, and builds a plan grounded in Health Canada-approved treatment and Obesity Canada guidelines. GLP-1 medications address appetite regulation in a way willpower alone often cannot, but they work best alongside realistic changes to nutrition, activity, sleep, and stress. Just as important is the follow-up: structured check-ins to adjust dosing, manage side effects, and track progress over months, not days. This combination of medical oversight, evidence-based medication, and ongoing support gives Burlington residents a safer, more sustainable path than the next trending diet — and a doctor accountable to your results.
