What to Expect

Your journey begins with a comprehensive medical consultation where we review your complete health history, current medications, and previous weight loss attempts. We'll order appropriate laboratory tests to identify any underlying metabolic or hormonal issues that may be affecting your weight. Based on your results, we'll develop a personalized medical weight loss plan that may include prescription medications, hormone optimization, and nutritional protocols. Regular follow-up appointments allow us to monitor your progress, adjust medications as needed, and provide ongoing support. We typically see patients every 2-4 weeks initially, then monthly once stable. Throughout the process, we maintain communication with your other healthcare providers to ensure coordinated care.

Why Choose Oklahoma MD

Choosing Oklahoma MD means working with licensed physicians who understand the medical complexities of weight loss. Unlike commercial weight loss programs, we can prescribe FDA-approved medications and address underlying health conditions that may be preventing success. Our medical approach is particularly beneficial for patients with diabetes, hormonal imbalances, or those who've failed traditional weight loss methods. We provide ongoing medical supervision to ensure safe weight loss while monitoring for any health improvements or concerns. Our success rates are higher than non-medical programs because we address the root causes of weight gain rather than just treating symptoms.

Insurance & Pricing

Many of our services may be covered by insurance when deemed medically necessary for the treatment of obesity or related health conditions. We accept most major insurance plans and will verify coverage before beginning treatment. Cash pay options are available for services not covered by insurance, with treatment packages ranging from $200-500 monthly depending on the complexity of your program. Prescription medications are typically covered by most insurance formularies. We also offer financing options through third-party providers for patients who qualify.

First-Time Patient Tips

Medical weight loss requires patience and commitment to the process, as we prioritize safe, sustainable results over rapid weight loss. Expect to attend regular appointments for monitoring and medication adjustments, especially in the first few months. Side effects from prescription medications are usually mild and temporary, but it's important to communicate any concerns with our medical team. Success requires following both medication protocols and lifestyle recommendations including diet and exercise modifications. Most patients see significant results within 3-6 months, but optimal results often take 12-18 months to achieve. We emphasize that this is a medical treatment, not a quick fix, and long-term success requires ongoing lifestyle changes.
