Why weight management matters

Excess weight can strain joints and the cardiovascular system and is linked with high blood pressure, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, osteoarthritis, and certain cancers. Addressing the root causes—not just calories—supports better energy, mood, and long-term health.

Are you a good candidate?

You may benefit from physician-guided care if you:

• Have weight changes associated with PCOS, perimenopause, or menopause
• Have tried programs without durable results
• Are managing metabolic risks (prediabetes, insulin resistance, cholesterol concerns)
• Want a structured plan with medical oversight and accountability

What to expect

1. Comprehensive intake: History, medications, lifestyle, weight-change timeline, and goals.
2. Targeted testing (as appropriate): Thyroid function, insulin resistance markers, lipid profile, vitamin levels, and—in the right context—hormone evaluation.
3. Personalized plan:
   • Nutrition: sustainable meal framework; micronutrient support if needed
   • Activity: realistic movement plan for your schedule and mobility
   • Sleep & stress: strategies that support appetite, energy, and recovery
   • Medication options: when clinically appropriate, monitored prescription therapies
   • Hormonal care: evaluation and management for PCOS/perimenopause/menopause drivers
4. Follow-through & accountability: Regular check-ins (in-office or virtual), progress tracking, and plan adjustments.
   Goal: steady, medically guided progress—with safer, sustainable maintenance.

Our approach

• Women’s-health expertise focused on hormonal and metabolic factors
• Root-cause strategy (beyond willpower and quick fixes)
• Right-sized support that fits real life—work, family, and time
• Safety first with evidence-informed care and monitoring
