Your plan isn’t a one-size-fits-all diet. It’s built around your health history, body, lifestyle, and goals — combining personalized assessment, individualized treatment (nutrition, lifestyle changes, and prescription options when appropriate), medical supervision, and goal-focused care.
No one-size-fits-all program. Your plan starts with a consultation and a review of your medical history, medications, metabolism, and hormonal factors.
A new Medicare program covers certain FDA-approved weight-loss medications (Wegovy, Zepbound, Foundayo) for eligible Part D patients, with a $50 monthly copay once approved. Eligibility depends on BMI and health criteria. We review eligibility, submit prior authorization, and follow up for you.
Already on a GLP-1? Eligibility is based on your starting BMI — you may still qualify. If you have type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, or fatty liver disease, coverage may come through your regular Part D plan instead.
Office visits and labs may still be covered even if medication isn’t. Options include manufacturer self-pay programs, older oral medications, and compounded GLP-1 medications when your provider determines they’re appropriate — compounded medications are not FDA-approved. Prices vary; we review costs at consultation.
Online or by phone, whichever’s easier.
We’ll go over your history, medications, and goals together.
A quick blood draw checks your A1c, cholesterol, and thyroid function.
We check your insurance and handle prior authorization.
Start low, build up gradually, with monthly check-ins in-office or by telemedicine.
Adults with a BMI of 30+, or 27+ with a related condition (high blood pressure, prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, sleep apnea). Tell us about pregnancy, thyroid cancer history, pancreatitis, heart disease, seizures, glaucoma, or diabetes/opioid medications. Insurance requirements may be stricter than the label.
Enter your height and weight to calculate your BMI.
BMI is a screening measure and does not diagnose health conditions. Your provider will consider your overall health when determining whether medical weight-loss treatment is appropriate.
In clinical trials, adults combining these medications with diet and activity changes lost roughly 15–21% of body weight over about 16 months, varying by medication and dose. Results vary; many regain weight after stopping. [Pending Dr. Qureshi’s verification.]

For eligible patients, the temporary Medicare GLP-1 Bridge covers certain FDA-approved medications for Part D patients meeting health criteria and prior authorization, through Dec 31, 2027.
Coverage varies widely. We check your specific benefits and handle prior authorization — we can't guarantee coverage but will tell you where you stand.
We review whether an appeal makes sense, a covered alternative fits, or a self-pay option works.
Neither is universally better; effectiveness, requirements, and coverage differ. Your provider goes over trade-offs.

Depends on medication and dose; prices change periodically and are reviewed at consultation.
