Ready for a Personalized Weight Loss Plan?
Dr. Attia can review your health history, discuss your goals, and determine which medical weight loss options may be appropriate for you.
Medical Weight Loss Treatments
Your treatment plan will be based on your health, preferences, and clinical eligibility. Medical weight loss may include medication, lifestyle recommendations, or a combination of approaches.
GLP-1 Weight Loss Medication
For eligible patients, Dr. Attia may recommend prescription GLP-1 or GLP-1/GIP medication as part of a comprehensive weight management plan.
These weight loss medications can reduce appetite and support weight loss when combined with nutrition, physical activity, and ongoing medical care. The most appropriate medication depends on factors such as your medical history, current medications, weight-related conditions, insurance coverage, and treatment goals.
Options may include medications containing semaglutide or tirzepatide when clinically appropriate. A medical evaluation is required to determine whether either option is suitable for you.
GLP-1 medications are not appropriate for everyone and may cause side effects. Dr. Attia will discuss the potential benefits, risks, alternatives, and monitoring requirements before prescribing treatment.
Personalized Weight Management Plans
Medication is only one potential part of medical weight loss. Dr. Attia may also create a personalized plan focused on realistic lifestyle changes you can maintain over time.
Your plan may address:
- Balanced nutrition and portion awareness
- Physical activity suited to your ability and routine
- Sleep habits
- Stress management
- Behavioral strategies
- Weight-related health conditions
- Regular follow-up and accountability
Recommendations are tailored to your medical history, daily routine, and goals rather than relying on extreme restrictions or a one-size-fits-all program.
Who May Qualify for Medical Weight Loss?
Medical weight loss may be appropriate for adults who have struggled to achieve or maintain meaningful weight loss through lifestyle changes alone, particularly when excess weight is affecting their health or quality of life.
Prescription weight loss medication may be considered for adults with:
- A body mass index of 30 or higher
- A body mass index of 27 or higher with a weight-related condition, such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, or sleep apnea
- No medical contraindications to the recommended treatment
BMI is only one part of the evaluation. Dr. Attia will also consider your health history, current medications, previous weight loss efforts, related medical conditions, and personal goals.
Medical Weight Loss Safety and Monitoring
Medical weight loss begins with an evaluation to determine which treatments may be appropriate for you. Before recommending medication, Dr. Attia will review your medical history, current prescriptions, chronic conditions, laboratory results, and relevant personal and family history.
Follow-up care may include:
- Monitoring your weight and vital signs
- Reviewing blood sugar or cholesterol when appropriate
- Evaluating medication tolerance
- Addressing side effects
- Adjusting medication or other recommendations
- Monitoring related health conditions
GLP-1 medications commonly cause gastrointestinal symptoms and are not appropriate for every patient. Dr. Attia will review the potential benefits, risks, and alternatives with you before treatment begins.

Medical Weight Loss FAQs
A referral may not be required, but requirements can vary by insurance plan. Contact CLS Health or your insurer before scheduling if you are unsure about your benefits.
Insurance may cover provider visits, laboratory testing, and certain FDA-approved weight loss medications when eligibility requirements are met. Coverage, prior authorization requirements, and out-of-pocket costs vary by plan.
Eligibility depends on factors such as your BMI, weight-related health conditions, medical history, current medications, and potential contraindications. Dr. Attia must evaluate you before prescribing treatment.
The frequency of follow-up appointments depends on your treatment plan, medication, symptoms, and progress. Visits may be more frequent when starting or adjusting medication and less frequent once treatment is stable.
No. Semaglutide acts on GLP-1 receptors, while tirzepatide acts on both GIP and GLP-1 receptors. Both may be used for weight management in eligible patients, but they differ in how they work, dosing, side effects, and insurance coverage.
Results vary based on the treatment used, your starting weight, health conditions, lifestyle, medication tolerance, and consistency with the program. Dr. Attia can discuss realistic expectations based on your personalized treatment plan.
