We offer FDA-approved medications like Zepbound and Wegovywhen medically appropriate, to support and enhance your weight loss journey as part of a comprehensive, individualized plan.
About GLP-1s
For individuals who qualify, GLP-1 medications like Zepbound and Wegovy can be powerful tools in achieving significant and sustainable weight loss. These FDA-approved treatments work by targeting areas of the brain that regulate appetite and blood sugar, helping to reduce hunger, increase feelings of fullness, and support better metabolic function.
When used alongside our personalized nutrition and lifestyle counseling, GLP-1s can enhance results and make long-term success more achievable. Our medical team will evaluate your needs to determine if these options are right for you as part of a safe, effective, and fully customized weight loss plan. We use brand name medications only, no generic or compounded.

Zepbound is a once-weekly injectable prescription medication that may help adults with obesity, or with excess weight (overweight) who also have weight-related medical problems, lose weight and keep it off. Zepbound helps to reduce appetite, food intake, body fat, and total weight. The FDA approved Zepbound (a tirzepatide injection), as the first weight-loss treatment to activate both GIP (glucose- dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) hormone receptors.
In clinical trials, patients lost an average of 26% body weight during 88 weeks. In another 17-month clinical trial, people who dieted, exercised, and took Zepbound observed changes in cholesterol, blood pressure, and weight size.
