Lose weight and keep it off, for good.
Our provider-led medical weight loss program pairs prescription GLP-1 medication with real, personal support. You are never doing this alone.
Every plan is built around your health history, your body and your goals. No crash diets. No one-size-fits-all program. Just a medical approach to lasting change.
A Smarter Way to Lose Weight.
GLP-1 medications act like a hormone your body already makes after you eat. They work with your body in three main ways:
Most patients take a once-weekly injection just under the skin. We start at a low dose and increase it slowly. This gives your body time to adjust and helps keep side effects to a minimum.
The results can be life-changing. In large clinical trials, adults who used GLP-1 medications along with healthy habits lost an average of about 15% to 20% of their body weight over roughly a year and a half.
You Deserve to Feel Good in Your Body.
Weight is not just about willpower. Hormones, metabolism, stress, sleep and genetics all play a role. If you have tried everything and the scale still will not move, you are not alone.
Medical weight loss may be a good fit if you:
Even a modest change makes a difference. Losing just 5% to 10% of your body weight can improve blood pressure, blood sugar and energy levels.
If any of this sounds familiar, there is a better way forward.
Your program is managed by Joy DeRoche, a board-certified Nurse Practitioner with more than 10 years of experience. You work directly with Joy, not a call center or an app.
Your plan is based on your health history, your body and your goals. We adjust your dose as you go, based on how you feel and how your body responds.
Regular check-ins help you manage side effects, stay on track and protect your muscle while you lose fat. We are with you at every stage.
Your hormones, energy and skin all change as you lose weight. Our HRT, wellness shots and aesthetic treatments help you look and feel your best, inside and out.

Lose the Weight, Not Your Glow.
Weight loss changes more than the number on the scale. We help you protect what matters most:
Medical weight loss is not right for everyone. That is exactly why every plan starts with a consultation and a careful health review.
GLP-1 medications are not recommended if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or planning a pregnancy, or if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 2 (MEN 2). Joy will review your full history and walk you through your options.

Medical weight loss is a provider-supervised program that combines prescription medication, lifestyle guidance and regular check-ins. It is built around your health history, so you lose weight safely and with real support.
GLP-1 medications act like a hormone your body naturally releases after eating. They help reduce appetite, quiet cravings and keep you feeling full longer. GLP-1 medications are FDA-approved for chronic weight management in adults who meet certain health criteria.
Results vary from person to person. In large clinical trials, adults lost an average of about 15% to 20% of their body weight over roughly a year and a half when medication was paired with healthy habits. Many patients notice a change in their appetite within the first few weeks.
The most common side effects are nausea, constipation, diarrhea and an upset stomach. They are usually mild and most likely when you start or increase a dose. Starting low, increasing slowly and eating smaller meals all help. We check in regularly and adjust your plan if needed.
Most patients say no. The needle is very small and the injection goes just under the skin. We show you exactly how to do it, so you feel confident at home.
Research shows many people regain some weight after stopping, because appetite tends to return. That is why we focus on building healthy habits while you are on treatment. We plan your next steps together before you stop.
