Medical Weight Loss
Our medical weight loss programs combine FDA-approved medications, nutritional supplements, and lifestyle modifications tailored to individual metabolic needs. We address hormonal imbalances and weight-resistant conditions through personalized treatment plans developed by board-certified providers. With over 40 years of clinical experience, we deliver sustainable results while managing comorbid conditions like diabetes and PCOS.
Hormone Therapy
Specialized hormone therapy programs target weight-related endocrine imbalances including thyroid dysfunction and sex hormone irregularities. Our board-certified providers develop customized protocols to optimize hormonal function while monitoring patient progress through regular lab testing and clinical assessments. This evidence-based approach addresses root causes of weight resistance.
GLP-1 Receptor Agonist Therapy
We offer GLP-1 receptor agonist therapies like semaglutide (Wegovy/Ozempic) and liraglutide (Saxenda) as part of comprehensive weight management plans. Our providers monitor medication effectiveness and side effects while integrating these treatments with nutritional counseling and behavioral modifications for optimal outcomes.
Lipedema Management
Our lipedema management program combines manual lymphatic drainage, compression therapy, and targeted exercise with medical weight loss strategies. Board-certified providers address this chronic fat distribution disorder through multidisciplinary care that improves mobility and reduces discomfort while managing associated metabolic conditions.
Metabolic Disorder Management
We specialize in managing weight challenges associated with metabolic disorders including fibromyalgia, insulin resistance, and polycystic ovary syndrome. Our providers develop individualized treatment plans that address both primary conditions and weight management goals through coordinated medical interventions and lifestyle modifications.

Always supportive and professional. Willing to get me in the same day if I need to. I love all of the nurses and the counselors. They always answer any questions I have and are very kind and spend the time. The girls at the windows are great too. I've never had any problems with this office.

Report
As a customer I feel like theyre making it unnecessarily hard to get my medicine. If I was prescribed a narcotic and needed someone else to go get it from any pharmacy, all they have to do is show ID. Im out of town due to a family emergency, and have now run out of my prescription, and theyre offering over the phone visits, but whats the point in that if you and only you can go get your prescription and it has to be same day? Im literally flying in for a day just to go to the doctor. Set the flight and everything. Then find out the office isnt going to be open. Its ridiculous
