Do You Prescribe Weight Loss Medications?
Yes. Obesity is complex. It is not simply about self-will and "pushing yourself away from the table." However, optimal health also isn't as simple as prescribing a medication. Prescribing weight loss medications can offer profound life changes for many, but it is important to me to also integrate sustainable lifestyle changes, and unique to my practice, I have created a comprehensive, individualized physical health virtual program that addresses various underlying issues that lead to obesity. Clients are also encouraged to join my daily yoga classes with no additional fee.
GLP-1s specifically are prescribed as part of my primary care practice. There is no membership. Just like any other medication, whether for hypertension or anxiety, this is part of the treatment plan. You pay for my service. This prescription is sent to the pharmacy and you can use your healthcare insurance for coverage, or if it isn't covered, we have a number of resources without additional mark-up. I do not offer "boutique healthcare."
