Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at  if you cannot find an answer to your question.

If you are overweight or have obesity and would like help with weight loss then you are a candidate for medical weight loss. Medical weight loss is a great option for people who have a lot of weight to lose but do not like the idea of surgery and also for people who have several stubborn pounds they just haven’t been able to lose despite diet and exercise.

There are about 20 medications that are approved for weight loss/management or used off-label for weight loss/management. One of the most sought after weight loss medications right now is Semaglutide(Wegovy, Ozempic) and this is one of the cornerstone medications of our Weight loss program. 

However, this medication may not be right for everyone, so we offer several other weight loss medications such as Metformin, Naltrexone/Bupropion (contrave), Olympia Pharmacy 90 day weight management kit (low dose naltrexone and sermorelin) as well as vitamin supplementation to increase energy and boost your metabolism.

Semaglutide(brand names:Wegovy/Ozempic) is a weight loss peptide which was approved in June, 2021 by the FDA for Chronic weight management in adults with obesity or overweight with at least one weight-related condition(high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes and more). It is an under-the-skin injection. 

We are 100% virtual. The beautiful thing about Weight loss/management medicine and our Weight Loss MD program is that it can be done from the comfort of your HOME/OFFICE! After our initial evaluation (to determine if our program is right for you), we’ll provide you our recommendations so TOGETHER we can customize a safe & highly effective plan based on YOUR individual needs.

ABSOLUTELY! Our protocols are extremely safe and backed by scientific research. It is a Physician supervised program precisely because your safety and well being is our TOP priority. You will have monthly visits with Dr. Chioma and we will monitor your progress with lab tests and body measurements as the program progresses.

We do not accept insurance because most insurance do not pay for weight loss.  Our initial consultation is free. Once you enroll in our weight loss programs, we bundle the monthly physician visit, prescription weight loss medications into one affordable monthly fee. You can also invest in a 3 or 6 month weight loss program at a discounted price.
