Finding the Root Cause of Your Weight Concerns
Our experts talk a lot about finding the “why” behind your weight concerns—but what does that actually mean?
Traditional, insurance-based providers have a skewed understanding of what causes a person’s weight to fluctuate. When it comes to weight gain, most providers point to poor eating habits or a lack of physical activity as the underlying cause. But in reality, it’s usually factors outside of our control that contribute to our weight concerns.
At Medical Spa NP, our experts focus on the source of your weight gain. Your issues with weight are not your identity, and we’re here to help you overcome these struggles so you can take on each day with confidence.
In short, our experts will never tell you to get on the treadmill or put you on a diet that dangerously limits your nutrient intake. Our founder, Lindsay Eckles Hoffman, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, has spent her entire career dispelling weight loss myths. She shares her knowledge to help patients take back control of their well-being.
Defining Weight Loss Injections
If you’ve heard anything about weight reducing medicine in Columbus, you may already know that these injections are helping celebrities and influencers alike achieve lasting weight loss.
But these injections aren’t just for famous people—they’re helping everyday individuals create the healthiest version of themselves.
Weight loss injections mimic a natural hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). This hormone stimulates the release of insulin, helping you feel fuller for longer off of fewer calories.
The final result? These injections help you avoid cravings and food noise that distract you from your weight loss goals. This way, you lose weight at a safer, steadier pace than the unsafe, quick rate of fad diets.
Who’s a Good Candidate for Medical Weight Loss?
The best candidates for weight loss injections are those who have struggled with their weight for years and haven’t achieved success through traditional methods alone. At Medical Spa NP, we do not have a BMI requirement for weight loss injections—we go by the healthiest weight for you. As your partners, we work towards your goals with you rather than let your BMI decide the proper treatment plan.
Maybe you’ve started running but haven’t seen the pounds fly off like you thought you would. Or maybe you’ve stopped buying your favorite foods at the grocery store, just hoping that this change would be the one that finally made a difference.
But the truth is, it’s not diet or exercise that leads to weight gain: it’s hidden health conditions and concerns that often affect us for years. Our experts want to help you understand your weight loss needs so you can finally reach that goal number on the scale.
Weight reducing medicine in Columbus is a great option for most patients; during your consultation, your nurse practitioner discusses your health history to identify the treatment plan that best fits you.
What to Expect During Your Consultation
Every weight loss journey at Medical Spa NP starts with a comprehensive consultation. During your consultation, you sit down to discuss your goals with Lindsay or one of our other knowledgeable weight loss experts, Christa Nagle, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, who has been a valued provider since 2019.
Expert Insights
Our providers listen carefully to your story, asking about how long you’ve struggled with your weight, what your triggers are, and how you want to feel after treatment. They also ask about your medical history, working to identify possible underlying conditions that may be contributing to your weight gain. Be sure to tell your provider about any medications you take and previous weight loss attempts.
Once your provider decides that weight reducing medicine in Columbus can address your needs, the two of you work together to create your personalized plan. This may include a specific weight loss injection dosage and complementary treatments to enhance your results.
Thorough Diagnostics
If we suspect a hormonal imbalance is contributing to your weight concerns, we run a series of lab tests. While other providers say “your results look fine,” our providers look beyond normal test results to find the specific cause of your weight gain. Once your results come back, we may recommend hormone replacement therapy (HRT), which replaces hormones lost to the aging process.
We can provide additional guidance on HRT during your initial consultation and regular follow-up appointments.
Injection Guidance
Once our providers confirm that weight loss injections can support your health journey, we can teach you how to self-administer your medication. Per Ohio law, the vials of medication will be shipped directly to your house, where you can titrate your dosage.
To ensure you have all the tools for success at your fingertips, we provide a packet of information highlighting when and how you can adjust your dosage at home for optimal results. This resource also explains weekly dosing and what to do if you miss a dose.
As you navigate your personalized treatments and form healthier habits, you can learn what feels right for you and feel comfortable throughout your weight loss journey.
The goal is safe, steady weight loss over time. With sustainable, supported weight reduction, you can live your life and achieve your weight goals without missing a beat.
Patient Success Stories
Weight reducing medicine in Columbus has the power to transform your life—but don’t just take our word for it! Here are some patient success stories that show just how impactful weight loss injections can be:
“I have always had the best experience here…I was tired, cranky and just felt blah!!! Depending on your goals, they do a fantastic job listening…and finding a path that fits your needs. I trust them more than a GP. And they have helped me more than any doctor for the last 15 years!!
If your issue is sleep, hormones, weight loss, etc., they got you covered. I feel better, have more energy and have even lost weight!! I recommend them, and their treatments to anyone…I love that their blood tests are more conclusive and they don’t want to just throw meds at me and really work with my body to find the right treatment!!!” – Anonymous patient
“Christa is awesome! I’ve been going to her for several years for everything from hormone replacement to filler to weight loss. Christa listens to my needs and helps me look and feel wonderful.” – Julie W.
“I sent my husband here to get his levels checked… and he felt so much better!!!!
I was not myself, didn’t want to be around anyone, couldn’t sleep, was gaining weight and my anxiety was through the roof. Lyndsay talked to me on my first visit for over an hour and listened to everything I was going through, and instead of making me feel like I was crazy, she said “I can fix you and make you feel normal again”!!!!! She will never know how much that meant to me.
I saw what she had done for my husband and wanted that as well. I got my blood work back and she explained why I was going through what I was going through and said in three weeks I would feel like my old self again. Man, was she right!!!!! I feel amazing. I can sleep the whole night, my anxiety is gone, I want to go and do things again and I have even lost some weight.
I have sent both my son and daughter in to get their levels checked, and they have helped them as well. Their approach to medicine is to find the cause of what is wrong, not just throw medication at you. The atmosphere is very welcoming and the staff extremely friendly. I would give them more than five stars if I could and have told everyone I know to go there for themselves!” – Jenny M.
