SEMAGLUTIDE

Long term weight loss program

WHAT IS SEMAGLUTIDE?

Semaglutide injections are currently one of the most popular weight loss aids on the market! Originally used to treat diabetes, these injections have been approved for long term weight loss.

This medication works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone that is responsible for telling us when we are full. It also slows gastric emptying, leaving you feeling fuller for longer! On top of these benefits, it also helps control insulin levels which aids in losing excess fat.

First Month: Once approved by one of our MDs or NPs, you will be able to begin our program. If this is your first time on Semaglutide, you will be seen in the office weekly for the first 4 weeks. This is to ensure we can help with dosing, self injecting, & aid in any side effects.

Monthly: At your 4th visit, you will get your vial and be able to begin self injections. We will require monthly follow ups to make you are doing well with the side effects, weight loss, and that your overall health is still doing well.
