Semaglutide Weight Loss Medication
Why Choose Semaglutide for Weight Loss?
Semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, has recently gained significant recognition as a powerful weight loss medication. As part of our weight loss program, we offer Semaglutide in various forms, including Wegovy and Ozempic, as well as compounded Semaglutide injections. Both options provide cost-effective weight loss solutions for our clients.
Why is Semaglutide your answer for successful weight loss?
Timothy Garvey, M.D., co-author of a study published in JAMA (February 2022) and Butterworth Professor of Medicine in the Department of Nutrition Sciences, shared his insights:
“We have not seen this degree of weight loss with any previous medication.”
Not only is Semaglutide known for its success in treating type 2 diabetes, but it is proving to be just as effective for weight loss—a double benefit in reducing weight and regulating blood sugar levels!
How Does Semaglutide Work?
Semaglutide works in two primary ways to help you achieve weight loss success:
- Slowing Gastric Emptying: Semaglutide makes you feel satisfied faster with smaller portions of food by slowing down the emptying of your stomach. This effect helps you consume fewer calories, enabling you to lose weight.
- Appetite Suppression and Blood Sugar Regulation: Semaglutide stimulates insulin production, reducing blood sugar levels. It also signals your brain that food is in your stomach, leading to decreased appetite and cravings. This mechanism supports consistent and mindful food choices aligned with your weight loss goals.
Benefits of Semaglutide
- Lowers blood sugar without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia
- Reduces body weight, lipids, blood pressure, inflammatory markers, oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and subclinical atherosclerosis
- Improves body composition
- Suppresses appetite
- Decreases elevated glucagon levels, both fasting and after eating
- Promotes insulin secretion from beta cells while decreasing glucagon secretion in the pancreas
- Enhances the sensation of fullness in the brain
- Slows gastric emptying to help you feel fuller longer
- Reduces HbA1c levels
- Promotes weight loss
Are You a Good Candidate for Semaglutide?
Determining whether you are a suitable candidate for Semaglutide is best done through consultation with our telemedicine experts in Virginia. However, here are some factors that may indicate Semaglutide could be beneficial for you:
- Obesity or Overweight: Individuals with a BMI indicating overweight or obesity.
- Weight-Related Health Conditions: Such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, or type 2 diabetes.
- Commitment to Lifestyle Changes: Willingness to adopt dietary and exercise modifications.
- Previous Weight Loss Attempts: Have not had success with other weight loss solutions.
Tirzepatide Weight Loss Medication
Why Choose Tirzepatide for Weight Loss?
In addition to Semaglutide, our patients are getting great results with Tirzepatide. Tirzepatide is an innovative medication that has gained significant attention for its dual action in managing type 2 diabetes and promoting substantial weight loss. We offer Tirzepatide, known commercially as Mounjaro, as well as compounded Tirzepatide injections, providing cost-effective options for our clients.
What makes Tirzepatide a compelling choice for weight loss?
Clinical trials have demonstrated that Tirzepatide can lead to an average weight loss of up to 22.5% of body weight, surpassing many previous weight loss medications.
How Does Tirzepatide Work?
Tirzepatide works by activating two incretin hormones:
- Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP): Enhances insulin secretion and has effects on fat metabolism.
- Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1): Increases insulin release, decreases glucagon levels, slows gastric emptying, and reduces appetite.
By targeting both GIP and GLP-1 receptors, Tirzepatide offers a synergistic approach to lowering blood sugar levels and reducing body weight more effectively than targeting GLP-1 alone.
Benefits of Tirzepatide
- Significant Weight Loss
- Improved Glycemic Control
- Appetite Suppression
- Cardiovascular Benefits
Our telemedicine experts can help determine if Tirzepatide is the right choice for you during a consultation.

Did You Know? Effective Weight Loss Requires More Than Injections
Our medical weight loss program emphasizes that achieving successful and sustainable weight loss entails more than simply receiving medical weight loss injections. Why? Because while injections can aid in weight loss, our approach focuses on comprehensive lifestyle changes, professional support, and accountability for lasting results.
Weight loss research consistently highlights the limitations of relying solely on injections, with individuals often regaining lost weight once treatment ceases. Studies have shown the importance of holistic approaches to weight management, integrating behavioral changes, dietary modifications, and regular physical activity.

- Healthy Habit Formation: Empowering you to adopt healthier habits and maintain weight loss over the long term.
- Long-Term Success: Helping you achieve sustainable transformations and improve your overall health and well-being—without dependency on weight loss medications to keep the weight off.
