The medications

01

Semaglutide

A GLP-1 medication that helps regulate appetite, slow gastric emptying, and improve insulin response, supporting weight loss by promoting satiety and metabolic balance.

02

Tirzepatide

A dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist that supports blood sugar regulation and weight loss by enhancing insulin secretion, suppressing glucagon, slowing digestion, and increasing satiety.

03

Monthly InBody scan

Tracks lean mass and visceral fat monthly. It's the variable most programs lose and the one that determines whether results hold.

Questions

Before you book.

Are weight loss programs refundable?

All programs are non-refundable.

Do you offer virtual weight loss appointments?

Yes. The medical weight loss program is fully virtual and does not require in-person visits.

Do you take insurance for the weight loss program?

No, insurance is not accepted.

How much weight will I lose?

Results vary by individual. Many patients experience approximately 5–10% weight loss depending on adherence and underlying health factors.

How soon can I expect to see results?

Some patients notice appetite suppression early in treatment. Full effects may take up to 8 weeks or longer, and dietary and lifestyle changes significantly enhance results.

What if I don't lose weight while on treatment?

If weight loss stalls, additional evaluation may be recommended to assess underlying factors such as metabolic dysfunction or hormonal imbalance.

What is the cancellation policy?

48 hours (2 business days) notice is required for appointments, or fees may apply.
