From our clinic
Am I a candidate for medical weight loss therapy?
GLP-1 medications are typically prescribed for adults with a BMI of 27 or higher with a weight-related condition, or a BMI of 30 or higher. During your consultation, our physician will review your health history and determine if treatment is appropriate for you.
How quickly will I see results?
Most patients begin to see meaningful weight loss within the first 4-8 weeks. Results vary based on individual factors, but clinical trials show an average of 15-22% total body weight loss over 12-18 months with consistent use.
Is the consultation really free?
Yes — your initial consultation with our clinical team is completely free. We want to make sure the therapies we offer are the right fit before any commitment is made.
