Advanced Medical Weight Loss with Powerful Appetite Control

Semaglutide is a clinically proven GLP-1 receptor agonist used to support weight loss by helping regulate appetite, slow digestion, and improve feelings of fullness. By working with your body’s natural hunger hormones, Semaglutide helps reduce cravings and calorie intake — without relying on stimulants.
This treatment is ideal for patients seeking significant, sustainable weight loss with ongoing medical supervision.

How Semaglutide Works
Semaglutide supports weight loss by:
Decreasing appetite and food cravings
Helping you feel full sooner and longer
Reducing mindless and emotional eating
Supporting steady, consistent weight loss
Many patients experience improved control around food and noticeable changes in eating behavior within the first few weeks of treatment.

Who Is Semaglutide For?
Semaglutide may be an excellent option for:
Patients who struggle with persistent hunger or cravings
Individuals who have tried multiple diets without lasting success
Those looking for a non-stimulant medical option
Patients with weight-related health concerns
Individuals committed to long-term lifestyle change
Your provider will determine if Semaglutide is appropriate based on your health history and goals.

Adipex® (Phentermine)
Adipex is a prescription appetite suppressant designed to support weight loss by helping reduce hunger and increase energy levels.
​It works as a central nervous system stimulant and has properties similar to amphetamines, which is why medical supervision is essential.
When combined with a healthy nutrition plan and regular movement, Adipex can help patients:
Gain control over appetite and cravings
Improve portion awareness
Increase daily energy and motivation
Achieve noticeable weight loss results
Adipex is often most effective for patients who need additional support jump-starting their weight loss journey or breaking through a plateau.

Medical Monitoring & Safety
Your safety is our priority. Because Adipex can affect heart rate and blood pressure, we closely monitor patients throughout treatment.
Blood pressure is checked bi-weekly.
Dosage and duration are carefully managed by our provider team.

Common Side Effects
Nervousness or jitteriness
Increased heart rate or palpitations
Constipation
Elevated blood pressure
Not every patient experiences side effects, and many find them mild and temporary. Our providers will review your health history to determine if Adipex is appropriate for you.

Bontril® (Phendimetrazine)
Bontril is a prescription appetite suppressant used for short-term weight loss support in patients who are overweight or obese, including those with weight-related medical conditions. It works by decreasing appetite and supporting better eating control when paired with a structured weight loss plan.
Bontril is available in two dosage options and is taken exactly as prescribed by your provider. It is used alongside:
A reduced-calorie nutrition plan
Doctor-approved exercise recommendations
Behavior and lifestyle changes
This medication is often an excellent option for patients who are sensitive to stronger stimulants or who may not tolerate other appetite suppressants as well.

Common Side Effects
Dry mouth
Insomnia
Mild nausea
Dizziness
Bontril is generally well tolerated, and many patients find it provides effective appetite control with fewer stimulant-related effects.
