Frequently Asked Questions about Medical Weight Loss

What to know before starting a provider-supervised program

01 Am I a candidate for medical weight loss?

Eligibility is determined during a medical consultation. Our providers review your health history, current medications, and lab work to confirm whether a program is appropriate and safe for you.

02 How fast will I see results?

Results vary by patient, treatment, and adherence to the plan. Most patients see gradual, steady changes over several weeks to months. Medical weight loss is not a substitute for a balanced diet and regular physical activity.

03 Do I need lab work and follow-up visits?

Yes. Baseline and periodic lab testing, along with scheduled provider check-ins, are part of every program. This helps us monitor your response, adjust dosing if needed, and keep treatment safe.

04 Is this covered by insurance?

Coverage depends on your insurer and the specific medication or program. Our team can review pricing and payment options during your consultation so you understand the cost before starting.

05 What happens if a medication is not right for me?

Your provider will reassess your plan and discuss alternatives. Some patients transition between options based on tolerance, results, and ongoing health needs.
