What It Is
A weight loss consultation at Rose MD is a medical visit focused on understanding your health and discussing prescription-based options for weight management.
Our main approach uses GLP-1 receptor agonists, including medications like Ozempic® (semaglutide) and Mounjaro® (tirzepatide), which are proven to support weight loss by:
- Regulating appetite and reducing cravings
- Slowing stomach emptying, helping you feel fuller for longer
- Supporting better blood sugar control
These medications are an evidence-based option for patients struggling with excess weight despite healthy lifestyle efforts.
Who It’s For
This consultation is intended for adults who:
- Have a BMI of 30 or higher, or
- Have a BMI of 27 or higher with any weight-related health concerns (for example, changes in blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol levels, or other medical issues that could be related to weight)
- Are interested in discussing whether a GLP-1 medication like Ozempic or Mounjaro is right for them
What to Expect
- A private 30-minute appointment
- Review of your medical history, medications, and goals
- A requisition for general lab work will likely be provided first, to check baseline health markers (kidney/liver function, A1C, cholesterol, and more)
- Prescription may be provided after lab results are available and reviewed
Lifestyle Support
While medication can be helpful, sustainable weight management also involves nutrition and physical activity.
