At Three Rivers Medicine, we offer a physician-led GLP-1 weight-loss program that is fully integrated into primary care. This means your weight-loss plan is based on your overall health, medical history, and long-term goals—not just a number on the scale.
Our approach focuses on safety, personalization, and ongoing medical support so you can lose weight in a healthy, sustainable way.
What Is GLP-1 Weight-Loss Therapy?
GLP-1 medications help support weight loss by reducing appetite, helping you feel full sooner, and improving how your body regulates food intake. These medications can be very effective for some people when used appropriately and under medical supervision.
At Three Rivers Medicine, GLP-1 therapy is offered as part of your primary care—not through a standalone or online program. This allows us to monitor your health, manage side effects, and make adjustments based on how your body responds.
Why Physician-Led Care Matters
Weight-loss medications affect more than appetite alone. They can impact digestion, blood sugar, energy levels, and overall health. Having a physician oversee your care helps ensure the treatment is safe, appropriate, and aligned with your broader health needs.
- A medical evaluation before starting medication
- Lab work to establish a safe baseline
- Ongoing follow-ups and dose adjustments
- Monitoring for side effects and overall health changes
This level of care is difficult to achieve through prescription-only or non-medical weight-loss programs.
How the Program Works
Step 1: Complimentary Consultation
We start with a free consultation to learn about your goals, medical history, and questions. This visit helps determine whether GLP-1 therapy may be right for you.
Step 2: Medical Evaluation
If you choose to move forward, we complete a clinical assessment that may include labs and a review of your overall health to ensure treatment is safe.
Step 3: Personalized Care Plan
If GLP-1 medication is appropriate, your physician creates a customized plan that includes medication guidance, follow-up visits, and lifestyle support.
Step 4: Ongoing Monitoring
We continue to monitor your progress, adjust dosing as needed, and support you throughout your weight-loss journey as part of your primary care.
