About the Clinic
Let’s be honest, weight loss can be hard. If it was easy, everybody could do it.
Over the past 15 years, I have spent countless hours discussing the importance of weight loss with my patients through a healthy well balanced diet; exercise, and enjoying food in moderation. And while these recommendations still ring true, many continue to struggle to shift the scale in their favor. And while many people will put their best foot forward and try their very best, they just don’t see the results that they are looking for. This often leads to frustration and many people fall back into old habits and routines.

We are proud to offer a couple different medication options
Once weekly Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are both FDA approved for weight loss. We prescribe the compounded versions of these medications, which are often combined with B12 or L-Carnitine, which may help boost energy. Medications are compounded and shipped from licensed, accredited compounding pharmacies in the United States.
Experience You Can Trust
With years of experience counseling patients on healthy diet, exercise and the benefits of weight loss, along with educating, prescribing and managing weight loss medications you can trust that you will receive expert care and assistance in your weight loss journey.
Telehealth Services
All of our services are provided through telehealth. We only provide service for patients who reside in the state of Wisconsin. This not only improves ease of access, but also allows you to seek care right from the privacy and comfort of your home. At your visit, we will obtain a detailed medical history, learn a little bit more about you and what you have tried in the past, and discuss different options to help you achieve your weight loss goals. The medications we prescribe will be reviewed, and a prescription will be provided for those who would like to proceed. Follow up visits will be scheduled at the appropriate interval, and dose adjustments / refills will be provided at that time as well. There are no hidden / additional fees for follow up visits. You only pay for your medication. Our goal is to make this process easy and private for the patient. All medication is discretely direct shipped to your door.
FDA guidelines for Semaglutide and/or Tirzepatide for weight loss are as follows:
BMI (body mass index) of > 30
BMI of >27 with other medical co-morbidities (such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, etc…)
Using these medications in patients who do not meet the above criteria is considered “Off Label” use.
