Weight Loss Consultation
Medical weight management, grounded in safety and long-term results
At Rose MD, weight management is approached as a medical process, not a quick fix. We assess your health, review your history, and build a plan that is realistic, evidence-based, and safe, with medication considered only when appropriate and monitored closely.
Who Typically Qualifies
- Based on Canadian evidence-based guidelines (Obesity Canada), pharmacotherapy for weight management is generally appropriate for adults with:
- BMI ≥ 30 kg/m², OR
- BMI ≥ 27 kg/m² with at least one adiposity-related complication (type 2 diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, dyslipidemia, or others)
- Eligibility is confirmed at your consultation following a full assessment. Medications are never prescribed without an in-person or virtual assessment.
The Lifestyle Pillar
- Weight loss medications work best when combined with sustainable lifestyle changes. At Rose MD we reinforce: Sustainable nutrition habits, Regular physical activity, Adequate hydration, Sleep and stress management. We do not offer structured meal plans or personal training, but can refer to registered dietitians and physiotherapists, when appropriate.
A smarter, safer approach to weight loss
If you’re considering medical weight management, start with a proper assessment. We guide you through what’s appropriate, what’s safe, and what actually works long term.
Pricing & Private Billing
Weight loss consultations are billed privately. Medication costs vary significantly by product and pharmacy, expect $200–$500+ per month depending on the medication and dose. Some private insurance plans cover obesity pharmacotherapy; coverage is not universal. See our Pricing page or speak to the clinic team for details.
Safety Monitoring & Follow-Up
- Baseline labs: blood glucose (A1C), lipid panel, kidney and liver function
- Thyroid screening if indicated
- Contraindication review (e.g., personal or family history of thyroid cancer, pancreatitis)
- Starting dose and titration schedule per clinical guidelines
- Side effect monitoring (nausea, GI symptoms — common; serious events — rare but discussed)
- Plan adjustment or discontinuation criteria reviewed proactively
FAQs
Do I need RAMQ to be seen at Rose MD?

How do I avoid counterfeit GLP-1 medications?
Only fill prescriptions at a licensed Canadian pharmacy, never through unverified online vendors, social media, or grey-market sources. Health Canada has issued formal warnings about serious risks from counterfeit GLP-1 products circulating in Canada.
What testing is needed before starting weight loss medication?
Rose MD orders baseline labs before prescribing: typically A1C, a lipid panel, and kidney and liver function tests. Additional tests may be ordered based on your health history. This ensures the medication is safe and appropriate for you.
Can I get lab testing done at Rose MD even if I'm not a Rose MD patient?
Yes. Rose MD’s on-site lab in Mont-Royal accepts both existing patients and external patients. If you’re an existing Rose MD patient, your ordering physician is notified of your results directly. If you’re an external patient, simply bring a valid requisition from your own doctor or specialist, you can book your appointment online or call us. Lab fees are private (not billed to RAMQ), and many insurance plans cover a significant portion of the cost.
