Frequently Asked Questions

Do you prescribe weight loss medications?

Yes, our board-certified physicians can prescribe FDA-approved weight loss medications when medically appropriate. All prescriptions are carefully monitored with regular follow-up appointments and laboratory testing.

How much weight can I expect to lose?

Weight loss varies based on individual factors, but most clients lose 1-2 pounds per week initially, with total losses of 5-15% of body weight being common. Our medical approach often produces better long-term results than diet-only programs.

Is medical weight loss covered by insurance?

Coverage varies significantly by insurance plan and individual policy details. Our staff helps verify benefits and works to maximize your coverage for covered services.

What makes medical weight loss different from commercial programs?

Medical weight loss addresses underlying health conditions, uses prescription medications when appropriate, and provides true physician supervision. We can diagnose and treat medical issues that may be preventing weight loss.

Do I need a referral from my primary care doctor?

Most insurance plans do not require referrals for weight management consultations, but we recommend checking with your specific plan. We're happy to coordinate care with your primary physician.

How often will I need to come in for appointments?

Initially, we recommend weekly visits for the first month, then bi-weekly appointments as progress stabilizes. Clients on prescription medications require more frequent monitoring for safety and efficacy.

Can you help with weight loss if I have diabetes or other health conditions?

Absolutely. Our physicians specialize in managing weight loss for clients with diabetes, heart disease, thyroid disorders, and other medical conditions. Medical supervision is especially important in these cases.

What happens if I plateau or stop losing weight?

Plateaus are common in weight loss journeys. Our medical team can adjust medications, modify nutrition plans, address hormonal factors, or investigate other medical causes to help you continue progressing toward your goals.
