Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Autonomy different from other weight loss clinics?

Our addiction medicine expertise sets us apart. We understand how habits form and how to break them, which most weight loss centers don't address. We treat the whole person, not just your weight.

Will I need medication to lose weight?

Not necessarily. Some patients do well with nutritional counseling and behavioral changes alone. We determine what you actually need based on your individual situation, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

How do you address emotional eating?

Our behavioral coaching specifically addresses why you eat and how to build new patterns. We use techniques from addiction medicine to help you understand and change emotional eating behaviors.

What if I have other health conditions?

We specialize in treating patients with multiple health concerns. Your weight loss plan is customized to work with your other conditions and medications, not against them.

Is your approach sustainable long-term?

Yes, we focus on building habits you can maintain forever, not temporary restrictions. Our follow-up support helps you keep the weight off and prevent regain.

How often will I see a provider?

Initial appointments are usually weekly or bi-weekly, transitioning to monthly as you progress. Frequency depends on your program and whether you're taking medications that need monitoring.

Do you accept my insurance?

We accept most major insurance plans. Call our office with your insurance details, and we can tell you what your coverage includes for weight loss treatment.

What results should I expect?

Healthy weight loss is typically 1-2 pounds weekly. Most patients see significant results within 3 months, with continued progress over 6-12 months. We emphasize how you feel and your health metrics, not just scale weight.
