FAQ

The best method for weight management incorporates lifestyle modifications that are sustainable long term. Medication can help manage weight effectively, but only when combined with a healthy diet and exercise. Medical weight loss programs combine these factors with supervision under a board-certified physician, to ensure your weight management plan is achievable and sustainable.

The concept of weight management refers to maintaining your goal weight long term. After initial weight loss, dietary and lifestyle modification may need to be continued or adjusted. With continuous monitoring of your treatment progress, our goal is to keep the weight off while making it easy and sustainable.

Most branded weight loss medications require a prior authorization for private insurance to cover the cost. Your physician and care team will reach out to your insurer on your behalf, and this process can take several business days. If you are denied the prior authorization or do not have health insurance, you may still purchase the medication at the cash price.

Weight loss medications can be a great tool. But they are not a quick fix solution. If not accompanied with behavioral work to make weight loss sustainable, weight regain is likely. This is why we pair coaching plus medical treatment to get you the best long-term results.
