Medically supervised weight loss using GLP-1 medications like Wegovy require a clinician with an understanding of metabolic tests to identify if treatment is appropriate and to rule out nutritional deficiencies prior to treatment.
A bloodwork panel will be ordered at your personal consultation and reviewed at your next appointment. At this time your prescriber will provide you with a prescription for a medication (eg. Wegovy) to start you on your medically supervised weight loss journey, if no contraindications are detected on your bloodwork.
Our goal is to see you succeed in your weight loss journey while establishing healthy goals and targets. We are here to assist you with completing insurance forms for the use of GLP-1 medications as prescribed by our clinicians.
Virtual and in-office follow-up care is available once initiation of medication has started for patient convenience.
Our clinicians provide personalized treatments and exceptional customer service. GLP-1 weight loss medications like Saxenda and Wegovy are Health Canada approved medications and require a prescription from a Nurse Practitioner or Physician with ongoing monitoring. These medications may not be right for everyone.
Please note Nurse Practitioner Services including assessments, prescriptions, injection fees and follow-ups are not covered by the public health care system OHIP. Therefore a fee is required to cover these items to ensure the continued operation of our clinic and service providers.
