Our pricing is transparent, and we'll always discuss costs upfront so you can make informed decisions about your care.

First-Time Patient Tips

Before your initial appointment, gather all relevant medical records, current medications, and any previous lab work related to weight management or metabolic health. Come prepared to discuss your complete medical history, including any chronic conditions, previous surgeries, and family history of weight-related health issues.

During treatment, follow all medical and nutritional recommendations carefully, including medication instructions and dietary guidelines. Attend all scheduled appointments, as regular monitoring is essential for both safety and success. Be honest about any challenges you're experiencing or side effects you may notice.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes your program different from other weight loss clinics?

Our physician-supervised approach means we can identify and treat underlying medical conditions affecting weight loss. We also focus on preventive medicine, addressing your overall health and reducing disease risk, not just weight loss alone.

Do I need to have health problems to qualify for your program?

No, we welcome patients who want to lose weight for health, appearance, or lifestyle reasons. However, having weight-related health conditions may increase the likelihood of insurance coverage for our services.

How do you determine if weight loss medications are appropriate?

Our physicians evaluate your medical history, current health status, BMI, and other factors to determine if prescription medications would be safe and beneficial for your specific situation. Regular monitoring ensures continued safety.

What kind of lab work do you require?

Typically, we'll order comprehensive metabolic panels, lipid profiles, thyroid function tests, and other relevant labs based on your health history. This helps us identify any underlying issues and monitor your health during weight loss.

Can you help me if I have diabetes or other chronic conditions?

Yes, our medical team is experienced in managing weight loss for patients with diabetes, heart disease, metabolic syndrome, and other chronic conditions. We'll coordinate care with your other healthcare providers as needed.

What happens if I don't lose weight as expected?

We'll evaluate potential reasons why your progress has slowed and adjust your treatment plan accordingly. Sometimes this involves changing medications, modifying your diet plan, or investigating underlying medical issues that weren't initially apparent.

Do you provide long-term maintenance support?

Absolutely. We recognize that maintaining weight loss is often more challenging than losing weight initially. Our maintenance programs provide ongoing support, monitoring, and adjustments to help you sustain your results long-term.

How often will I need to come in for appointments?

Initially, you'll typically visit every 2-4 weeks for medical monitoring and support. As you progress and stabilize, appointments may become less frequent, but regular check-ins remain important for long-term success.
