Sustained Weight Control

Medicine Ball Workout

Unhealthy weight is a chronic disease
requiring long-term treatment. 

Our team practices the principles of obesity medicine.  Based on these principles, we prescribe personalized medical goals.

 

These principles are:

​

  • Nutrition

  • Exercise

  • Self-monitoring

  • Long-term appetite suppression

There are FDA approved medications and devices for long-term weight control.

Check these references and learn more.

​

  1. Qsymia (phentermine & topiramate combination)

  2. Contrave (naltrexone & bupropion combination)

  3. Wegovy (Semaglutide)-check to see if your insurance covers Wegovy here

  4. Zepbound (Tirzepatide)-check to see if your insurance covers Zepbound here

​

The goal of medical treatment for unhealthy weight is to live longer, healthier lives.

​

Consult with us. Remember, it's never just about the medications/devices, nutrition, monitoring, nor exercise. All four principles of obesity medicine must be followed to result in significant life-style changes and sustained weight control. If you're ready, bring the motivation; we bring the knowledge and training.
