The WellsNess Concierge Weight loss program is a personalized, medical and holistic program designed to help you lose weight and to compliment our Skin Care and Plastic Surgery services. On your health and wellness journey, our purpose is to help empower and support you to achieve and maintain your weight loss goals that may have seemed impossible to reach before.
Confronting weight loss is personal. Stepping on a scale can be scary and emotional. At Wells, we want you to know that you are not alone. By committing to lifestyle and behavioral changes, weight loss medication can help make your ideal body image and weight possible.
If you are new to your weight loss journey, we can get you there. If you are in maintenance, we can keep you going. If you are ready to show off the new you, we can rejuvenate your skin and facial contours. If your goal is surgery, we will help get you to a surgery-ready weight. All from our caring team of providers.
Our GIP/GLP-1 Agonist weight loss medication program offers once-a-week injectable medications, including Semaglutide* and Tirzepatide*.
At your initial WellsNess consultation, your provider will:
- Provide a comprehensive health assessment.
- Discuss weight loss and maintenance programs.
- Discuss the type of medication that will be most beneficial to you and work within your budget
- Discuss financing programs available
- Order lab work
- Develop a personalized plan of care to help preventing or reduce side effects of these medications.
In general these medications are well tolerated. Some patients experience gastrointestinal symptoms, but these tend to resolve after the first month as your body adapts to the new medication. The payoff is big. Patients can lose up to 21% of their total body weight through medication, diet and lifestyle modifications!
