Our medical center approach means we can address complex cases involving metabolic disorders, hormonal imbalances, and medication-related weight gain that traditional diet programs often can't handle effectively.

We typically see patients monthly during active weight loss phases, with more frequent visits if you're using prescription medications or have complex medical needs. Our approach emphasizes gradual, sustainable weight loss that improves your overall health markers, not just the number on the scale.

Insurance & Pricing

Many insurance plans cover medical visits and lab work for weight management when medically necessary, especially for patients with related health conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure. We verify your insurance benefits during your initial consultation and help you understand what's covered. Some prescription medications may be covered by insurance, while others may require prior authorization. Nutritional counseling sessions may be covered if you have diabetes or other qualifying conditions. We provide transparent pricing for any services not covered by insurance and offer payment plans when needed.

First-Time Patient Tips

Before your first visit, gather your medical records, including recent lab work, medication lists, and reports from other healthcare providers treating conditions like diabetes or thyroid disorders. Don't start any new diets or supplements before your consultation, as we want to assess your current status accurately. Make a list of all previous weight loss attempts and their outcomes to help us understand what has and hasn't worked for you.

During treatment, follow medication instructions carefully and attend all scheduled appointments. Lab work monitoring is crucial for your safety, so don't skip these appointments. Be honest about challenges you're experiencing with the program, we can often make adjustments to help you succeed. Keep detailed records of your food intake, exercise, and how you're feeling, as this information helps us optimize your treatment plan.
