What we offer

GLP-1 programs, prescribed with care.

We're a physician-supervised GLP-1 clinic in downtown Naples. When medication is appropriate, we prescribe compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide, prepared by a licensed Florida compounding pharmacy.

Which one fits, if either, is a clinical decision made with you at your consultation. It isn't chosen from a menu.

  1. Semaglutide

    A prescription GLP-1 medication that helps regulate appetite and food intake. It's used for weight loss under medical supervision, and your clinician goes through what to expect and the side effects before you start.

  2. Tirzepatide

    A prescription medication that acts on two appetite-related hormone pathways, GLP-1 and GIP. It's used for weight loss under medical supervision, and your clinician goes through what to expect and the side effects before you start.

  3. Lipotropic injections

    B vitamins and amino acids often used alongside a weight-loss program. Your clinician explains what they can and can't do, and their side effects, before you start.

What your program includes

Every program is prescribed and supervised by our clinical team.

  • A full review of your history, goals and current medications
  • A prescription only if it's appropriate for you
  • Follow-ups to adjust your plan and manage side effects
  • Guidance on food and habits, not just medication

Not right for everyone

GLP-1 medications aren't suitable for everyone. Your clinician checks your history, current medications and anything that would rule them out before anything's prescribed.

Compounded, explained

Straight answers about what you're taking.

You'll hear the word "compounded" a lot in GLP-1 weight loss. Here's what it means for the medication we prescribe.

Brand-name

FDA-approved

What it is
A medication made by its original manufacturer and approved by the FDA for specific uses in eligible patients.
FDA review
Reviewed by the FDA for safety and effectiveness in the uses it's approved for.
Compounded

Not FDA-approved

What it is
Prepared for an individual prescription by a licensed Florida compounding pharmacy. This is what we prescribe.
FDA review
Compounded medications aren't FDA-approved. The FDA doesn't review them for safety, effectiveness or quality before they're dispensed.
What we do
Your clinician tells you what you're prescribed, how it's given and its side effects before you start.

Questions about compounded medication are welcome at your consultation. If you'd like to talk about brand-name options, raise it with your clinician.

Beyond the prescription

Built around your week.

Medication is one tool. Your plan also looks at how you eat, move and sleep, around the life you actually have.

An assessment, not a sales appointment

If medication isn't right for you, we'll say so, and talk through the other routes with you.

Supervised, not handed off

Weight loss medication isn't a prescription you collect and forget. We follow up, adjust and manage side effects with you.

No surprises, start to finish.

Nothing's booked on the day unless you want it to be.

How much does medical weight loss cost in Naples?

It depends on the program you and your clinician agree on, so we don't list prices here. The consultation is free, and you get a price before you commit to anything.

Are your GLP-1 medications FDA-approved?

The semaglutide and tirzepatide we prescribe are compounded by a licensed Florida compounding pharmacy. Compounded medications aren't FDA-approved. Brand-name versions are FDA-approved for specific uses. Your clinician tells you exactly what you'd be prescribed, and why, before you start.

Do I have to take medication?

No. The consultation is an assessment, not a sales appointment. If medication isn't appropriate for you, we'll say so.

Who supervises my program?

Our weight loss programs are physician-supervised by Victor Cruz, MD, our Medical Director. Every visit is with a member of our clinical team.

Are there side effects?

All of these medications have possible side effects, and your clinician goes through them with you in full before you start. That conversation is part of the consultation, and we manage side effects with you once you've started.

How long does it take to see results?

That varies by person and by program. Your clinician will set realistic expectations with you rather than promise a number.
