What medical weight loss means
Medical weight loss is physician-supervised care that combines clinical evaluation, evidence-based treatment options, and ongoing monitoring — not a one-size-fits-all diet program.
At NeuMed, medical weight loss may include GLP-1 class medications when clinically appropriate, lab testing, lifestyle guidance, and follow-up visits. Individual results vary; no specific outcome can be guaranteed.
Who may be a candidate
Candidacy depends on BMI, health history, current medications, and clinical guidelines. During consultation, a provider assesses whether medical weight loss — including GLP-1 therapy — is appropriate for you.
Medical evaluation and lab testing
Your first visit includes health history, exam when indicated, and discussion of lab work — such as metabolic panels or A1C — when clinically appropriate.
NeuMed Functional Health Lab panels can complement medical weight loss evaluation. See our lab-work guide for GLP-1 candidacy.
Medication options
Prescription only when clinically appropriate. Brand availability and formulation depend on your plan and pharmacy — NeuMed does not guarantee a specific compounded product.
Semaglutide (Wegovy® & Ozempic®)
A GLP-1 receptor agonist that may decrease appetite and help regulate food intake. Dosing starts low and increases gradually with monitoring.
Learn more →Tirzepatide (Zepbound™ & Mounjaro®)
A dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist evaluated for chronic weight management in eligible adults. Selection depends on clinical evaluation — not online comparison alone.
Learn more →Monitoring, follow-up, and lifestyle support
GLP-1 therapy requires ongoing provider oversight — dose adjustments, side effect management, and lab monitoring when indicated.
Nutrition, activity, sleep, and behavioral support are part of a sustainable plan. Medication alone is rarely the full answer.
Why medically supervised care matters
GLP-1 medications require prescription and monitoring. Unsupervised use carries significant risks. NeuMed providers evaluate candidacy and follow evidence-based protocols.

Frequently asked questions.
Does everyone qualify for GLP-1 weight loss medication?
No. Eligibility depends on BMI, health history, and clinical guidelines. A NeuMed provider evaluates whether medication is appropriate during consultation.
How much does medical weight loss cost?
Costs include consultation, labs, and ongoing medication — which varies by drug, dose, and insurance. View NeuMed's pricing menu or discuss during your visit.
Do I need lab work before starting?
Often yes. Baseline labs help assess candidacy and establish monitoring benchmarks. Your provider recommends appropriate tests.
What happens when I stop GLP-1 medication?
Appetite often returns and weight regain is possible without sustained lifestyle changes. Plan discontinuation with your provider.
