Frequently Asked Questions

What makes medically supervised weight loss different from commercial programs?

Medically supervised programs address underlying health conditions, provide prescription medications when appropriate, and offer comprehensive medical monitoring. Our physicians can identify and treat metabolic issues that may prevent weight loss success with diet and exercise alone.

Am I a candidate for weight loss medications?

Candidates typically have a BMI of 30 or higher, or BMI of 27 with obesity-related health conditions. Our physicians conduct thorough evaluations to determine if medications are appropriate based on your health status and weight loss goals.

How much weight can I expect to lose?

Results vary by individual, but patients typically lose 5-15% of their body weight within the first 3-6 months. Factors affecting weight loss include starting weight, adherence to the program, and individual metabolic factors.

Are there side effects from weight loss medications?

Common side effects may include nausea, digestive issues, and decreased appetite. Our medical team monitors patients closely and can adjust medications to minimize side effects while maintaining effectiveness.

What happens after I reach my weight loss goal?

We provide maintenance programs to help you sustain your weight loss long-term. This includes ongoing medical monitoring, nutritional support, and behavioral strategies to prevent weight regain.

Do you accept insurance for weight loss treatment?

We accept most major insurance plans for medical consultations and lab work. Coverage for weight loss medications varies by insurance provider and plan details.

How often will I need to visit the clinic?

Initially, visits are scheduled every 2-4 weeks for medication monitoring and support. As you progress, visits may be spaced further apart based on your individual needs and treatment response.

Can I continue my current medications while on a weight loss program?

Our physicians review all current medications during your consultation and make necessary adjustments. Many medications can be continued safely, though some may require monitoring or modification as you lose weight.
