Medically Assisted Weight Loss and Wellness Program
Our aim is to support you in achieving your optimal well-being by focusing on body fat-loss (rather than just weight-loss), preserving existing muscle mass, fostering new healthy habits, and offering a structured exit strategy for when/if you choose to come off the medication.
Our Mission
Through this partnership, we aim to bridge the gap between medicine and health/wellness. Our goal is to help patients and clients understand that their journey to better health involves multiple important aspects beyond just medication.
