Medical Weight Loss
Medical weight loss uses prescription medication alongside diet and exercise to help you lose weight safely and sustainably — with a physician guiding the plan.
GLP medications are a class of prescription treatments that work with your body’s own appetite and blood sugar signals. Below is how they work, what they can do, and which ones we prescribe.
How It Works
These medications target hormones such as GLP-1 to regulate appetite, reduce hunger, and control cravings. They also enhance metabolism, making it easier to lose weight, and help stabilize blood sugar levels, which supports overall health and effective weight management.
