What to Expect

Your weight loss journey starts with a comprehensive medical consultation, including detailed health history, physical examination, and laboratory testing to assess metabolic function, hormone levels, and overall health status. Based on your results, we create a personalized treatment plan that may include prescription medications, structured meal plans, and regular monitoring appointments. We schedule follow-up visits every 2-4 weeks initially to track progress, address challenges, and make necessary adjustments to your program. Throughout treatment, we monitor not just weight loss but also improvements in energy, health markers, and quality of life.

Why Choose Alpine Wellness

Our 5-star rating reflects our commitment to providing exceptional, personalized care with proven results. Unlike commercial weight loss programs, we offer true medical supervision with physician oversight of all treatments. We focus on sustainable lifestyle changes rather than quick fixes, and our patients appreciate our practical, no-nonsense approach that fits into busy lifestyles. Our success rates are higher than average because we address underlying medical issues that often sabotage weight loss efforts, and we provide the ongoing support needed for long-term success.

Insurance & Pricing

We work with most major insurance providers and can often obtain coverage for medically necessary weight loss treatments, especially for patients with obesity-related health conditions. Initial consultations typically range from $200-300, with monthly follow-up programs averaging $250-400 depending on services included. Prescription medications may require additional costs not covered by insurance. We provide detailed cost estimates upfront and offer payment plans for patients without insurance coverage.

First-Time Patient Tips

Before your first appointment, fast for 10-12 hours to ensure accurate lab results, but continue taking any prescribed medications with water. Bring a complete list of current medications, supplements, and any recent lab work or medical records. Prepare to discuss your weight history, previous diet attempts, current eating habits, exercise routine, and any symptoms you've been experiencing. Wear comfortable clothing and be prepared for body measurements and composition analysis. Consider keeping a food diary for the week prior to help our team understand your current habits.
