About Monaco Health
Monaco Health stands as New Orleans' premier destination for comprehensive weight loss solutions, combining advanced medical expertise with personalized care. Our team of board-certified physicians and nutrition specialists understand that sustainable weight loss requires a multifaceted approach tailored to each individual's unique needs and lifestyle.
Established with a commitment to transforming lives through evidence-based medicine, Monaco Health has helped thousands of patients achieve their weight loss goals while improving overall health markers. We believe in addressing the root causes of weight gain, including metabolic dysfunction, hormonal imbalances, and lifestyle factors, rather than simply prescribing quick fixes.
Services Offered
Our comprehensive weight loss services encompass medical evaluation, customized nutrition planning, prescription weight loss medications, and ongoing monitoring. We begin with thorough metabolic testing to identify any underlying conditions that may be hindering weight loss efforts. Our medical team provides FDA-approved weight loss medications when appropriate, including GLP-1 agonists and other proven pharmaceutical interventions. Nutritional counseling forms the cornerstone of our approach, with registered dietitians creating personalized meal plans that fit your preferences and dietary restrictions. We also offer body composition analysis, fitness consultations, and behavioral coaching to address emotional eating patterns. Regular follow-up appointments ensure progress tracking and plan adjustments as needed. Our integrative approach may include hormone optimization therapy for patients with identified deficiencies. Additionally, we provide supplement recommendations, meal replacement programs, and access to our online portal for continuous support and education between visits.

What to Expect
Your journey begins with a comprehensive initial consultation including detailed medical history, physical examination, and laboratory testing to assess metabolic function, hormone levels, and nutritional status. Based on these findings, our medical team develops a personalized treatment plan incorporating appropriate medications, dietary modifications, and lifestyle interventions. Regular monitoring appointments occur every 2-4 weeks initially, with adjustments made based on progress and any side effects. We track not only weight loss but also improvements in energy levels, sleep quality, and overall health markers. Our support team provides continuous guidance through our patient portal, offering recipe suggestions, exercise modifications, and motivation between visits. The program typically spans 6-12 months, with maintenance protocols established to ensure long-term success.

Many insurance plans cover physician visits and laboratory testing, though coverage for weight loss medications varies by plan. We offer transparent pricing with package deals for self-pay patients, including payment plans to make treatment accessible. Initial consultation fees range from $200-300, with follow-up visits typically $100-150. Prescription medications are priced separately based on insurance coverage or pharmacy discount programs we can help you access.
First-Time Patient Tips
Prepare for your first visit by gathering your complete medical history, current medications, and any recent lab results. We recommend keeping a food diary for one week prior to your appointment to help our team understand your current eating patterns. Bring a list of previous weight loss attempts and what did or didn't work for you. Wear comfortable clothing for your physical examination and body composition analysis. Plan to spend 60-90 minutes during your initial consultation. After starting your program, maintain open communication with our team about any concerns or side effects. Follow medication instructions precisely and attend all scheduled appointments for optimal results. Remember that sustainable weight loss takes time, and small consistent changes lead to lasting transformation.
