Medication-Assisted Weight Loss is the frontier of options for successful, life-changing, health transforming weight reduction. Dr. Rubin uses compounded Semaglutide– with telemedicine options in Naples, Tampa, South Palm Beach, North Broward and across the state of Florida.
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It regulates appetite and insulin, leading to effective weight loss without extreme dieting or invasive procedures often used for weight loss. Some research studies have demonstrated that Semaglutide can result in a loss of up to 15-20% of starting body weight. Semaglutide delays the digestive process and provides a longer lasting feeling of fullness after eating – and that’s just one way it makes it so much easier for patients to lose weight.
A personalized medical plan tailored to fit your specific weight loss goals will be designed just for you - based on the results of Dr. Rubin’s evaluation. Depending on your needs, the plan may include a detoxification program, specialized diet, sarcotropin therapy, a series of physical activity recommendations, and more!
To take the first step onto your personalized functional medicine journey and see real results in your weight loss goals, call either of our offices or book online today for in-person or telemedicine options.
Semaglutide is a medication used to address weight gain or obesity. At Improving Your Health, our approach to weight loss is designed to correct the underlying cause(s) of your chronic conditions or symptoms, including your weight concerns. It’s essential to understand that weight gain is a medical condition. Treating it as one can make all the difference.
Utilizing Semaglutide Weight Loss, quite simply, we see your weight gain as an untreated medical condition – not a character defect or a personal failure – and we treat it effectively, offering a comprehensive medical evaluation and a profoundly effective medication like Semaglutide. It can change your health – and your life!
Developed to address diabetes by stimulating insulin release and regulating blood glucose levels, Semaglutide is the GLP1 receptor agonist. Semaglutide proved so effective with weight loss, it eventually received FDA approval for patients diagnosed not only with diabetes, but with obesity too.
Semaglutide plays a key role in our weight loss therapy. The medication regulates appetite and insulin, leading to effective weight loss without extreme dieting or invasive procedures. Your treatment will be personally tailored to the needs of your body’s needs and your health, but typically, you will receive injections of Semaglutide compounded specifically for you, and usually injected once each week.
This injectable works the same as other Semaglutide weight loss drugs but is more affordable. It can be obtained without supply chain interruptions – and at a fraction of the normal costs you would pay for brand name drugs. Compounded medications have another advantage: they can be formulated to your doctor’s precise specifications.
Dr. Rubin utilizes a strategic Semaglutide Weight Loss program that begins with a functional evaluation of your body and your health. This evaluation includes:
Dr. Rubin has a deep understanding of both conventional and functional medicine options for treatment and always looks for root causes underlying your weight gain. Could it be related to medical conditions – like thyroid disease, PCOS or hormonal imbalances? Is it a side effect of a medication? Do you have an eating disorder? Or is it as simple as that bag of chips every night in front of the TV? Could it be endocrine disruptors in too many processed convenience foods? Weight gain is not just a result of poor dietary choices and a lack of exercise usually. Understanding what is causing your weight gain holds the key to reversing the trend and losing the weight finally. Our functional medicine approach means we work to understand the root cause of your weight issues, rather than just treating the symptom of excess weight.
Semaglutide Weight Loss strategies – along with other groundbreaking new treatments – can be game changers in your weight loss strategy.
We take a holistic approach to weight loss, focusing not just on short-term results but on long-lasting health. Dr. Rubin creates a personalized medical plan tailored to fit your specific weight loss goals based on the results of the evaluation. Our Semaglutide Weight Loss Program at Improving Your Health may include other components if necessary, including:
Other options – from peptides to Sarcotropin therapy – may fit into your Semaglutide Weight Loss plan. If sexual hormone imbalances are impacting your weight, Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) may be advisable.
At Improving Your Health, Dr. Rubin creates individualized plans based on each client’s health assessment – recognizing the unique factors that differentiate his clients. He understands that no two functional medicine treatment plans should ever be identical.
