Weight Loss Programs
Semaglutide
Semaglutide is the generic form of the drug commonly known as Ozempic® or Wegovy®. It was originally used as a diabetes treatment, but has since shown impressive results in weight loss of non-diabetic patients. As part of our comprehensive weight loss program, Semaglutide facilitates weight-loss in the following ways:
• Lowers blood sugar and enhances metabolic function
• Decreases appetite and cravings
• Provides an earlier feeling of fullness and satiety
Our formulation also includes vitamin B12, which can boost energy and make adherence to an exercise program easier.
The program consists of several steps:
A telehealth appointment with one of our licensed providers to approve you for treatment. Bloodwork may be required if you have certain pre-existing health problems.
An initial 30-minute office visit that includes counseling on diet and nutrition, and your first injection.
Weekly 15-minute visits that include:
Weigh In
Symptom assessment
Your weekly injection
All participants start at a dosage of 0.25mg. Dosages are increased every 1-4 weeks depending on the patient’s weight-loss response and side effects. The most common side effects are GI related such as nausea, stomach pain/cramping or diarrhea. While increasing your dosage, care will be taken to avoid any side effects. If side effects are experienced, you may need to stay at your current dose for several weeks, or possibly decrease your dosage. As tolerated, the dosage will be increased until you and your nurse are happy with the pace of your weight loss. The ideal weight loss rate is 1-2 lbs. per week. You can continue receiving Semaglutide as long as you have a telehealth re-evaluation every 20 weeks.

While it’s mechanism of action is similar to semaglutide, this newer generation weight-loss drug has shown improved results and decreased side effects. The tirzepatide program structure is the same as semaglutide, with weekly nursing visits and injections. Though higher in out-of-pocket costs, tirzepatide is very useful for people who do not tolerate semaglutide or have stubborn weight which is not responsive to other weight-loss treatments.
