Is this a diet program?

No. We build a plan around your history, results and goals. It may include nutrition guidance, movement, sleep support and medication when appropriate.

Will I need medication?

Not everyone does. Your clinician recommends medication only when it is appropriate, and explains the benefits, risks and alternatives first.

How long does it take to see progress?

It differs from person to person. We aim for steady, sustainable progress and set expectations with you at your visit.

Do I need a diagnosis to start?

No. You can request a consultation to talk about your goals or concerns. We will help you decide whether our services fit your needs.

Will you work with my primary care doctor?

Our care is designed to work alongside your regular medical care.

What about cost and payment options?

Please contact our team about pricing. Financing options are available, including Cherry and CareCredit. Approval and terms depend on the financing provider.

Overview

What is medical weight management?

Weight is only one part of metabolic health. Blood sugar, blood pressure, body composition and cardiovascular risk all matter, and they affect how you feel and how well you age.

Medical weight management looks at the whole picture with a clinician who knows your history. Together we build a plan around nutrition, movement, sleep and, when appropriate, medication, and we keep checking in so the plan keeps working for you.

What we look at

What your plan may include

There is no one-size-fits-all plan. Your clinician chooses what fits your history, your results and your goals.

Weight and body composition

Where you are today and what a healthy, realistic target looks like for you.
Blood sugar

How your body handles glucose, with testing when it is appropriate.
Blood pressure and heart health

Cardiovascular risk factors that shape your long-term health.
Nutrition and activity

Practical eating and movement habits you can keep, not a short-term diet.
Sleep, stress and habits

The daily routines that make progress easier or harder.
Medication, when appropriate

Your clinician explains the benefits, risks and alternatives before any prescription.

Is it right for you?

Who this care can help
