For services not covered by insurance, we offer transparent pricing and flexible payment options to make our programs accessible. Initial consultations typically range from $150-250, while ongoing monthly program fees vary based on the specific treatments and services included in your personalized plan. We provide detailed cost estimates upfront so there are no surprises.

First-Time Patient Tips

Before your first appointment, please gather any previous medical records related to weight loss attempts, current medications, and recent laboratory results. We recommend keeping a food diary for at least one week prior to your visit to help us better understand your current eating patterns. Come prepared to discuss your weight loss goals, timeline expectations, and any concerns you may have about the process. It's important to be honest about your lifestyle, eating habits, and any challenges you've faced in the past. During treatment, follow all medication instructions carefully and attend all scheduled appointments for optimal results. Remember that weight loss is a gradual process, and sustainable results take time. Stay in communication with our team about any concerns or side effects you may experience, and don't hesitate to reach out for support when you need encouragement or guidance.
