Medical Weight Loss
Our medical weight loss programs combine prescription medications, hormone therapy, and personalized nutrition plans to achieve sustainable results. We address underlying factors like hormonal imbalances and metabolic issues through comprehensive testing and tailored interventions. Patients receive ongoing support for long-term success.
Hormone Replacement Therapy
We offer bioidentical hormone therapy for men and women to address imbalances affecting energy, mood, and metabolism. Treatment includes testosterone replacement, thyroid optimization, and customized delivery methods like injections and topical applications for optimal absorption.
IV Vitamin Therapy
Our IV therapy delivers high-dose vitamins and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream for maximum absorption. Services include hydration drips, immune-boosting formulas, and specialized blends for energy enhancement and detoxification. Treatments take 45-60 minutes in a clinical setting.
Botox Injections
FDA-approved neurotoxin injections temporarily reduce facial wrinkles by relaxing targeted muscles. Common treatment areas include forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines. Results appear within days and last 3-4 months with minimal downtime.
SculpSure Body Contouring
This non-invasive laser treatment permanently destroys fat cells in targeted areas like the abdomen and love handles. Each 25-minute session achieves up to 24% fat reduction with visible results appearing over 6-12 weeks. Multiple treatments may be recommended.

Showed up in this clinic about 80 days ago. Staff set me up for two appointments that they call a Part 1 and Part 2. Went through a detailed eating, exercise, medication, blood work discussion along with goals and medical history. Definitely leave the appointments feeling informed. Followed their program best I could - eating plan is easy to follow and I wish I spent a little more time focused on exercise. The program I choose included eating/exercise as discussed above, medication, hormone optimization, and two different non-invasive devices to focus on my belly one to remove fat and other to

I can only comment on the weight loss program. I 100% agree with the reviewer below. There is a single plan which includes adoption of a keto diet plan that is widely available online, supplements/prescriptions, and 10 minute monthly weigh-ins with the staff. I went to another weight loss clinic several years ago, lost 40 lbs, and kept it off for years - until the pandemic. That clinic, conversely, have several plans tailored to your lifestyle, fitness regiment, body goals (thin vs muscle), and the Dr. personally saw patients on a weekly basis for check-ins and shots, i.e., fat burners and vitamins

My experience below....( this is taken from an email I sent to Weight Loss & Vitality June 2020):...the response from the clinic was dismissive, unprofessional, blaming, and without accountability...I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE TO WASTE THEIR MONEY ON THIS CLINIC (especially if you have a history of disordered eating)....there is no mental health or emotional support in this program! In an attempt at due diligence, I scheduled an initial consultation with one of the providers...I was promised in the consultation an individualized program, specialized diet, and a "new" way to look at fitness than

Bought the Groupon for 40 units of Botox. The provider was VERY knowledgeable and straight-forward. Took the time to ask what I was looking to achieve and explained the procedure very well prior to the injections. It has only been 5 days but so far, I'm very happy with the results and plan on returning in the future. Highly recommend!

I've been getting Botox for more than 7 years in various places and have found that Dr. Sanderson is absolutely the best. She is so incredibly skillful at creating beautiful aesthetic effects with her Botox injection placements such that I looked like I'd gotten a mini-facelift post-Botox injection. I have somewhat hooded eyes that she was able to lift using Botox. My friends all said "Wow; you look great....you must be getting a lot of rest due to the pandemic!". My friends and I all plan on visiting Dr. Sanderson in the near future.
