We use a medication called Semaglutide that acts on the pancreas to aid in lowering blood sugar, reducing cravings and slowing digestion. These mechanisms keep you feeling full, prevent you from overeating, which along with calorie and activity modifications, will ultimately lead to weight loss!
Our specialized program is supervised by a physician or one of our nurse practitioners. Clients are closely monitored by our healthcare team throughout their participation in the Mesquite Weight Loss Program, which includes…
- A complete history and physical.
- Initial and periodic labs.
- All medications.
- One-on-one medication administration instructions and supplies.
- MIC- B12 injections to help facilitate weight loss and boost energy.
- Meal and exercise plans.
- Wellness visits to check in on your program progress.
The program is offered as a membership for $300 per month.
The use of medications for weight management is indicated for patients who have a BMI of 30 or higher, or a BMI of at least 27 with other medical conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or high cholesterol.
