FAQs
What is medical weight loss?
Medical weight loss is a clinically supervised program that helps you lose weight safely and effectively with the guidance of healthcare professionals. At Nugen Medicine, we create a custom plan based on your body, goals, and lifestyle.
How is medical weight loss different from regular dieting?
Unlike fad diets or over-the-counter solutions, medical weight loss is science-based and tailored to your individual health needs. We have nutrition counseling, health evaluations, and medical support to help you lose weight and keep it off.
Who is a good candidate for medical weight loss?
Anyone struggling with their weight can benefit, especially those with conditions like obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, or metabolic issues. Nugen Medicine evaluates your health history and goals to determine the right approach for you.
What does the Nugen Medicine weight loss program include?
Our program includes a comprehensive health assessment, personalized meal planning, lifestyle coaching, medication (if necessary), and ongoing support to help you make sustainable changes.
Will I have to take weight loss medications?
Not always. We only recommend medications if they’re clinically appropriate and safe for your situation. We assess every option carefully and fully explain all treatments we recommend for you.
How quickly can I expect to see results?
Weight loss results vary by individual, but many patients begin noticing changes within the first few weeks. Nugen Medicine focuses on steady, sustainable progress. We don’t resort to crash dieting and other extreme, health-averse methods just to meet unrealistic expectations.
Do I need to exercise as part of the program?
While physical activity can support your results, we create plans that fit your abilities and limitations. We work with you to incorporate movement gradually and safely.
Is the program safe for people with health conditions?
Yes. One of the benefits of medical weight loss at Nugen Medicine is that it’s supervised by medical professionals who understand how to manage your care alongside conditions like diabetes, hypertension, or thyroid issues.
Will I have support between appointments?
Yes. We provide ongoing check-ins, support tools, and communication to keep you motivated and on track even between office visits.
Can this program help me lose weight long term?
Absolutely. Our goal is to help you lose weight and maintain it through realistic, sustainable lifestyle changes. We support long-term success over quick fixes.
What kind of diet will I have to follow?
There’s no one-size-fits-all plan. We develop a customized meal plan based on your preferences, health needs, and goals. We emphasize balanced, nutritious eating and we won’t enforce extreme restrictions.
Is lab testing involved?
Yes. We typically start with lab tests to assess your metabolism, hormone levels, and any underlying health issues. This helps us create a weight loss plan that’s safe and optimized for your body.
How long does the program last?
The length of your program depends on your goals and progress. Some patients benefit from a few months of support, while others continue longer for maintenance. We offer flexible timelines that evolve with you.
Is the program covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your insurance provider and the specific services involved. We will help you verify your benefits and discuss any out-of-pocket costs before starting.
