Your Initial Metabolic Consultation
Before joining any weight management membership plan,, all new patients begin with a comprehensive two-visit initial consultation to ensure your care plan is fully customized to your unique needs.
- Detailed review of your medical history, medications, lifestyle, environment, and health goals
- In-depth discussion of prior weight loss attempts, challenges, and successes
- Ordering (or reviewing) lab work to assess metabolic health, hormonal balance, and cardiovascular risk factors
- Thorough review of lab results and how they impact your weight, metabolism, and overall health
- Creation of a personalized treatment plan (nutrition strategies, activity recommendations, behavioral changes, medication options including GLP-1s or other anti-obesity medications when appropriate)
- Guidance on next steps and selection of your membership program
- includes Welcome Toolkit with body composition scale, tape measure and continuous glucose monitor so we can track more than just weight and BMI
This ensures your care is rooted in medical science and tailored to you — whether you have significant metabolic concerns, multiple chronic conditions, or normal labs but still struggle with weight.
