Medical weight loss is a supervised program led by weight management doctors to help patients lose weight safely and effectively. Unlike fad diets or over-the-counter supplements, medical weight loss is rooted in science and tailored to meet each individual's specific health goals. This evidence-based approach not only helps you lose weight, but also reduces the risk of chronic conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure.
These programs involve a multi-faceted strategy, including nutritional guidance, exercise plans, and behavioral support to help address emotional eating, stress, and other psychological barriers. In some cases, FDA-approved weight loss medications may also be used.
Ozempic and Wegovy are both brand names for semaglutide, which mimics a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). This hormone is naturally released in the body after eating and plays a key role in appetite regulation and blood sugar control.
Here’s how it works as a weight loss treatment:
Tirzepatide takes weight loss a step further by targeting two hormones: GLP-1 and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). This dual action allows the medication to not only suppress appetite, slow digestion, and improve insulin sensitivity but also boost metabolism by enhancing the body’s ability to metabolize fat and use energy efficiently. In clinical trials, tirzepatide has demonstrated even greater weight loss results than semaglutide, making it an exciting option for eligible patients. Tirzepatide, an active ingredient of Zepbound, takes weight loss a step further by targeting two hormones: GLP-1 and GIP. These hormones are responsible for regulating appetite, digestion, insulin sensitivity, and metabolism. By targeting both of these hormones, Zepbound is able to provide a comprehensive approach to weight loss.
If your insurance doesn’t cover medical weight loss, there are still options available. You can pay out-of-pocket for our weight loss program. Additionally, you may be able to use Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) or Health Savings Accounts (HSA) to cover related expenses. It’s always important to discuss your goals with our providers to find the safest and most effective solution for your needs.
