Medical Weight Loss Designed Around Your Health
Weight management is not only about appearance. Excess weight can affect blood pressure, blood sugar, sleep, cardiovascular health, and overall quality of life.

Our goal is to create a personalized plan that fits your health needs and long-term wellness goals.
What's Included in Our Medical Weight Loss and Counseling Services
Our medical weight loss program addresses every dimension of weight management — from metabolic evaluation and prescription medications to behavioral counseling and chronic disease integration. Here is an overview of what our program includes:
Comprehensive Medical Weight Loss Evaluation
Before any treatment begins, our physicians conduct a thorough evaluation to understand the medical drivers of your weight. This includes a complete history and physical, metabolic and hormonal lab work, assessment of weight-related chronic conditions, medication review for drugs that contribute to weight gain, and a baseline cardiovascular and metabolic risk assessment. This evaluation ensures your weight loss program is built on an accurate clinical picture rather than assumptions.
Physician-Guided Nutrition and Lifestyle Counseling
Our physician-guided weight loss approach includes individualized nutritional counseling tailored to your metabolic profile, food preferences, and health conditions. We do not prescribe a single diet to every patient. Instead, we help patients develop sustainable dietary patterns — whether that involves carbohydrate reduction, caloric restructuring, anti-inflammatory eating, or condition-specific modifications for diabetes or hypertension — alongside practical physical activity guidance appropriate for their fitness level and physical limitations.
Prescription Weight Loss Medication Management
For patients who meet clinical criteria, prescription weight loss medications can produce significant, sustained results that lifestyle changes alone cannot achieve. Our physicians are experienced in prescribing and managing the full range of FDA-approved weight loss medications including GLP-1 receptor agonists, combination therapies, and metabolic agents. Every prescribing decision is based on your individual health profile, comorbidities, and treatment goals — not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Semaglutide Weight Loss Treatment
Semaglutide is one of the newer medications used in obesity medicine and may help appropriate patients achieve meaningful weight reduction when combined with lifestyle changes and medical supervision.
Our physicians evaluate whether semaglutide is appropriate based on your health history, goals, medications, and risk factors. Treatment includes careful monitoring, dose adjustments, and ongoing support.
Tirzepatide Weight Loss Treatment (Mounjaro)
Tirzepatide is a medication used for certain patients with diabetes and obesity management. It works through GIP and GLP-1 pathways and has shown significant weight reduction results in clinical studies.
Our physicians evaluate candidacy, monitor response, manage dosing, and adjust treatment based on your individual health needs and goals.
Weight Loss Counseling and Behavioral Support
Sustainable weight loss requires more than a prescription. Our physicians provide behavioral counseling that addresses the habits, patterns, and psychological factors that influence eating and activity. We help patients identify triggers for overeating, build realistic and maintainable routines, navigate weight loss plateaus, and develop a long-term relationship with food and movement that supports sustained results well beyond the active treatment phase.

Frequently Asked Questions
Medical weight loss is supervised by a physician who evaluates the clinical drivers of your weight, orders appropriate lab work, prescribes medication when indicated, and monitors your health throughout treatment. Commercial programs offer general plans without medical evaluation, prescription access, or clinical oversight.
Candidacy is based on your BMI, health conditions, and medical history. Generally, GLP-1 medications are appropriate for patients with a BMI of 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with a weight-related condition such as diabetes or hypertension. Your physician will evaluate your full profile to determine the right option.

Coverage varies significantly by insurance plan. Some plans cover GLP-1 medications for diabetes management but not for weight loss specifically. Our team will review your coverage and help you understand your options, including any prior authorization requirements.
