Semaglutide

What kind of results can I expect?

Other weight loss places may make promises and guarantees, but instead of gimmicks we prefer to let the results speak for themselves. Results are dependent on individuals, so come and find out what you can achieve. On Semaglutide, once you reach the full dose at 9-16 weeks, it is typically a steady 1-3 pound of weight loss a week.

How fast can I see results?

With this treatment you may not start losing weight until 6-8 weeks of treatment. You will start this treatment with low doses and increase slowly to avoid negative side effects. It takes 9-16 weeks to be at the full dose/ strength.

Am I a good fit for this treatment?

This treatment is a particularly good fit for you if you are looking for a long term solution, you have taken phentermine or another stimulant medication (like ADHD meds) before, and/or you need to lose more than 10-15 lbs.

You can not be treated with semaglutide if you have:

  • Medullary Thyroid Cancer
  • Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia
  • Type 1 Diabeties
  • Type 2 Diabetics and already taking a GLP-1 medication
  • History of Pancreatitis
  • Chronic Kidney Disease (unless cleared by a nephrologist)
  • Nursing, pregnant, or trying to get pregnant

What are the common side effects?

Common side effects include short moments of nausea, constipation or diarrhea, fatigue, and lack of desire for alcohol.

Is the injection painless?

Yes, unlike vaccines or many other shots you may think of, this injection is done with a tiny needle that only goes under the skin, not into muscle. Patients often don’t realize we already gave the shot.

Do you take insurance?

We do not process any insurance. Unfortunately, most insurance companies refuse to cover medical weight loss, but we are happy to provide invoices for reimbursement if your insurance does. Some patients can get reimbursed for the visit.
