Medical Weight Loss

Medical weight loss is a specialized approach to help individuals achieve and maintain a healthy weight through a combination of medical, nutritional, and behavioral strategies. Unlike fad diets or over-the-counter supplements, medical weight loss programs are supervised by healthcare professionals, ensuring that each plan is safe, effective, and tailored to the individual’s needs.

Weight Loss Treatment

Supervised by Healthcare Professionals

Our medical weight loss plans are supervised by healthcare professionals, including doctors, dietitians, and nurses. Our healthcare providers conduct thorough assessments, including medical history, physical examinations, and sometimes lab tests, to identify any underlying conditions that may affect weight loss. They then develop personalized plans that may include dietary changes, physical activity recommendations, and behavioral therapy.

Medications Used for Weight Loss

For some individuals, medications may be an essential part of their weight loss plan. Two notable medications used in medical weight loss are Tirzepatide and Semaglutide.

Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide, sold under the brand names Mounjaro® and Zepbound®, is a medication that helps regulate blood sugar levels and appetite, leading to weight loss. It mimics hormones that influence hunger and satiety, making it easier for individuals to reduce their calorie intake.

Semaglutide

Semaglutide, known by the brand names Wegovy® and Ozempic®, is another effective medication used for weight loss. It mimics hormones that control hunger and blood sugar, helping patients stick to low-calorie diets more comfortably and achieve lasting weight loss.
