As part of our comprehensive approach to restoring your joint health, we offer FDA-approved medications, such as GLP-1 agonist drugs, to support safe and effective weight loss. Excess body weight is a significant contributor to joint conditions like arthritis. For example, for every pound that you’re overweight, an additional 4 pounds of pressure is exerted on your joints, and this strain increases during high-impact activities like walking, running, or climbing stairs.
We understand that maintaining a healthy weight is a lifelong challenge, especially in a world where unhealthy food options are heavily marketed. We believe that providing our patients with safe, effective medications helps give them a fighting chance to combat these influences and achieve long-term joint health.
Our weight management program is designed to be unique, offering comprehensive medical supervision, personalized motivation, and tailored diet and exercise plans. With our physician-guided approach, we are committed to helping each patient safely and effectively achieve their individual weight-loss goals.
GLP-1 agonists aid in weight loss by helping to manage calorie intake in two key ways. First, they slow the process of gastric emptying, keeping food in the stomach longer, which prolongs feelings of fullness after meals. This reduces the urge to eat frequently and prevents overeating.
Second, GLP-1 agonists target the brain’s satiety centers, which control the sensation of being full. By activating these centers, they help you feel satisfied with smaller portions, further reducing calorie consumption. Together, these mechanisms make GLP-1 agonists an effective tool for weight loss.
You can book your visit with us for the same day or within a few days of requesting an appointment. We believe you shouldn't have to wait weeks to see a specialist to to get the relief you need today.
