Play: Myth or Medicine

Weight is complex. Treatment shouldn’t be one-size-fits-all. No judgment. Just thoughtful medical care and a plan built around you.

01 — EVALUATION

Comprehensive
weight management

It starts with your medical history, weight history, current medications, previous weight-loss efforts, lifestyle and goals. Together, we build an individualized plan — nutrition and lifestyle recommendations, labs when appropriate, and treatment of factors that affect weight and metabolic health.

02 — MEDICATION

Prescription
medication management

GLP-1 and other FDA-approved options, when medically appropriate — chosen around your history, goals, side effects, availability and cost. Monitored through regular follow-up, not a one-time prescription.

03 — FOLLOW-UP

Ongoing care
& support

Sustainable weight management takes ongoing care. Follow-ups track your progress, address side effects or concerns, adjust medications when appropriate, and evolve your plan as your needs change.

04 — FROM ANYWHERE

By
telehealth

The continuity of a local doctor’s office with the convenience of telehealth — stay connected with your physician without frequent trips to an office. Available to patients in states where our physician is licensed.
