Our Proven, Science-Backed Approach to Medical Weight Loss Programs

We build your personalized weight loss program on four core pillars, ensuring you have the tools and support for every step of your journey
Expert Medical Evaluation

Your medical weight loss journey begins with a comprehensive medical evaluation led by Ethan Lazarus MD, Heather Thomas PA-C, or Jamie Shriver PA-C. We look at the whole picture—not just the weight—by performing and reviewing lab tests and body composition analysis to understand your unique history and metabolic challenges. This allows us to create a plan that prevents excessive muscle loss and is safe, effective, and tailored specifically to you.

 

FDA-Approved Medications

Based on your evaluation, our medical team may prescribe cutting-edge, FDA-approved GLP-1 medications like Wegovy® or Zepbound®. These powerful medications work with your body’s natural hormones to reduce “food noise,” regulate metabolic function, and help you lose weight safely and keep it off.

Personalized Nutrition & Dietitian Support

Medication alone is not enough. Our team of Registered Dietitians (including Mary Ellen and Stacy) works with you to create customized food plans and lifestyle strategies. This personalized coaching is crucial for developing the healthy habits you need for long-term success and is a key part of our comprehensive approach.

Education for Lasting Habit Change

To achieve results that last, you need to understand the “why” behind your habits. Inspired by psychology-based approaches, our program provides the education and tools you need to build healthier routines for life. We support you in making sustainable changes so you can maintain your success.
