What Is Medical Weight Management

Medical weight management is a clinician-guided approach to weight that starts with a full health evaluation, not a generic diet plan. Rachel Clerge, FNP-BC, reviews your health history, current habits, and any underlying conditions that may affect your weight, then builds an individualized plan with ongoing telehealth support to help you reach and maintain your goals.

Who Is It For

What to Expect

Your first visit includes a detailed review of your health history, current habits, and goals. Rachel may recommend lab work through a local lab near you to rule out underlying factors. From there, you'll receive an individualized plan with regular follow-up visits to track progress, troubleshoot challenges, and adjust your approach over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is medical weight management different from a typical diet program?

Medical weight management starts with a full health history and may include lab work to identify any underlying factors affecting your weight, such as thyroid function. Your plan is built and adjusted by a licensed provider, not a generic program.

What does a telehealth weight management visit include?

Visits include a review of your health history, goals, and current habits, along with ongoing check-ins to track progress, adjust your plan, and address any barriers. Rachel focuses on sustainable, individualized changes rather than one-size-fits-all rules.

Can underlying health conditions affect weight management?

Yes. Conditions such as thyroid disorders, insulin resistance, and certain medications can affect weight. Rachel evaluates your full health picture so your plan addresses the actual factors involved, not just calories in and out.

How often will I have follow-up visits for weight management?

Follow-up frequency depends on your individual plan and goals, but most patients are seen on a regular cadence to monitor progress, review any lab work, and adjust the approach as needed. Rachel will recommend a schedule tailored to you.
