GLP-1 stands for glucagon-like peptide-1 — a hormone your body naturally produces when you eat. GLP-1 medications mimic this hormone to help regulate appetite, slow stomach emptying, and keep you feeling full longer. The result is a natural reduction in cravings and calorie intake, which makes weight loss easier to achieve and sustain. GLP-1 medications are typically administered as a weekly injection and are most effective when paired with physician oversight, lab monitoring, and supportive lifestyle changes.

Most adults with a BMI of 30 or higher are good candidates for our medical weight loss program. You may also qualify with a BMI of 27 or higher if you have weight-related health concerns like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, prediabetes, or sleep apnea. Dr. Williamson reviews your full medical history, current medications, and lab work during your consultation to determine if a GLP-1 program is the right and safest option for you.

Results vary by individual, but clinical studies of GLP-1 medications have shown average weight loss ranging from approximately 15% to 20% of body weight over roughly 12 to 18 months when paired with appropriate lifestyle changes. Some patients see results faster, others more gradually. Dr. Williamson sets realistic expectations during your consultation based on your starting point, health profile, and goals.

Our monthly program covers everything you need to succeed: your initial consultation with Dr. Williamson, lab work, your GLP-1 weight loss medication, and ongoing support with check-ins every two months to monitor your progress and adjust dosing. Once you reach your goal weight, our maintenance program is provided for patients who want to continue medication to sustain their results.

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme your body uses to produce cellular energy and repair damaged cells. NAD+ levels naturally decline with age, stress, poor sleep, and illness — often leaving you feeling tired, foggy, or run-down. NAD+ injections replenish those levels to support increased energy, better mental clarity, improved focus and mood, healthier metabolism, and faster recovery from stress and workouts. Many patients on GLP-1 programs add NAD+ injections to keep their energy up during weight loss.

Glutathione is one of the body's most powerful antioxidants, naturally produced by your liver to support detoxification, immune function, and overall cellular health. Levels can drop due to aging, stress, illness, and environmental toxins. Injectable glutathione delivers this antioxidant directly into the body, where it supports brighter, more radiant skin, antioxidant and immune defense, increased energy, faster recovery, and overall wellness — a healthy "glow from the inside out."

Not necessarily, but it depends on your goals. Weight loss is a long-term health issue, and some patients choose to stay on a maintenance dose to keep the weight off, while others transition off the medication once they've built sustainable habits around nutrition and movement. Dr. Williamson will work with you on a personalized long-term plan, and our monthly maintenance program is designed specifically for patients ready to move from active weight loss into maintenance.
