What is Medical Weight Loss?

Medical weight loss is a physician-supervised approach that goes beyond diet and exercise. Using FDA-approved medications, we address the biological factors—hormones, appetite signals, and metabolism—that make losing weight so difficult.

Unlike commercial diet programs with 95% failure rates, medical weight loss produces significant, lasting results. Our patients typically lose 15-25% of their body weight, with some losing 50+ pounds.

  • Controls cravings: Break the cycle of emotional eating
  • Medical supervision: Safe, monitored treatment with adjustments as needed

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is medical weight loss?

Medical weight loss is a physician-supervised approach that uses FDA-approved medications, medical monitoring, and personalized protocols to help patients achieve significant, lasting weight loss. Unlike commercial diet programs, medical weight loss addresses the biological factors that make losing weight difficult.

How much weight can I lose with medical weight loss?

With GLP-1 medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide, patients typically lose 15-25% of their body weight. This means someone weighing 250 pounds could potentially lose 40-60 pounds or more. Results vary based on medication, adherence, diet, and exercise.

What medications are used for medical weight loss?

We primarily use FDA-approved GLP-1 and dual-action medications including semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound). These medications work by reducing appetite, slowing digestion, and improving metabolic function.

Is medical weight loss safe?

Yes, medical weight loss under physician supervision is safe and effective. The medications we use are FDA-approved with extensive safety data. We monitor patients regularly and adjust treatment as needed to ensure safety and optimal results.

How long does medical weight loss treatment last?

Treatment duration varies by individual goals. Most patients see significant results within 3-6 months. Long-term medication use is often recommended as research shows weight regain commonly occurs after stopping. We develop maintenance plans for sustained success.

Do I qualify for medical weight loss?

GLP-1 medications are FDA-approved for adults with BMI ≥30 (obesity) or BMI ≥27 with at least one weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. A consultation will determine if you're a candidate.

Does insurance cover medical weight loss?

Insurance coverage varies. Some plans cover weight loss medications, especially if you have related conditions like diabetes. We offer affordable self-pay pricing and financing through LiteCredit to ensure treatment is accessible.
