About FamWell MD

FamWell MD combines family medicine expertise with specialized weight loss treatments to provide comprehensive, medically supervised care for patients throughout Jacksonville. Our approach recognizes that successful weight management requires addressing both immediate weight loss goals and long-term health optimization.

As a family practice with weight loss specialization, we understand how excess weight affects your overall health and can integrate weight management with your ongoing medical care. Our providers have extensive experience with prescription weight loss medications and create treatment plans that complement your existing health conditions and medications.

Services Offered

Our weight loss services are built on a foundation of comprehensive medical evaluation and ongoing monitoring by experienced family medicine physicians. We offer prescription weight loss medications including semaglutide, tirzepatide, and other FDA-approved options, carefully selected based on your medical history and current health status. Our programs include regular medical monitoring, blood work analysis, and cardiovascular health assessments to ensure safe, effective treatment. We provide nutritional counseling and meal planning support to maximize your medication's effectiveness. Our medical spa treatments complement weight loss efforts through body composition analysis, metabolic rate testing, and non-invasive body contouring when appropriate. We can coordinate your weight loss treatment with other medical care, adjusting medications for diabetes, high blood pressure, or other conditions as you lose weight. Our integrated approach means you receive comprehensive care rather than isolated weight loss treatment.

If you have other healthcare providers, we may need to coordinate care and obtain recent lab work or medical records.
