During your visit, the medical assistant will take your height, weight and check your blood pressure.

Yes, absolutely! If it is determined that the name brand medication is the best option for you then you would only pay us $50 for the office visit for the NP to write you the prescription.

Prescription medications are FDA-approved, clinically tested, and supervised by a medical provider. Over-the-counter supplements are not regulated in the same way and often lack proven results.

Exercise is always encouraged. It can enhance your results, but it’s not required to start seeing progress.

GLP-1 weekly weight loss injections are on a titration dosing schedule, meaning you start with the lowest dose for 4 weeks and gradually work your way up until you find your most effective dose. This is done so you can tolerate the side effects at larger doses. We always recommend sticking with the lowest effective dose and only escalating when it stops working. For example, if the lowest dose works well then you can remain on that dose for as long as it keeps working. This way we can determine what your most effective dose level is based on your response, goals, and side effects, with physician oversight.

Side effects vary by medication but may include dry mouth, insomnia, nausea, or digestive upset. We’ll help you manage any symptoms throughout your treatment.
