What to Expect:
For your first appointment, you’ll need to book a consultation with our healthcare team. Before coming in, you’ll need to complete some blood tests and confirm that you are under the supervision of a PCP, or Primary Care Physician. During your consultation, our medical professionals will assess whether weight loss management is an appropriate and safe choice for you, based on FDA guidelines for obesity treatment. This appointment involves a thorough review of your medical history, current medications, vital statistics, and BMI.
You are NOT a suitable candidate for weight loss management if you have any of the following conditions: diabetic eye disease, hypoglycemia, impaired kidney function, pancreatitis, gastrointestinal issues, gallbladder disease, medullary thyroid carcinoma (or a family history of it), or multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2. This also applies if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Review
Truly the most amazing team of people at this office. I am totally new to treatments like dermal filler or dysport/botox and I’m so happy I chose to go here. These ladies have such incredible expertise and did a phenomenal job. I had treatments for forehead lines, facial symmetry with dermal filler, and my lips. I could not be happier with my experience here or the results. Everyone in the office was incredibly friendly and made my experience a 10/10.
