A Smarter, More Sustainable Way to Lose Weight

At Maricopa Wellness Center, our medical weight loss program in Maricopa, Arizona combines personalized medical care with ongoing support to help you achieve sustainable results.

Weight management isn't one-size-fits-all. Your health history, medications, hormones, metabolism, lifestyle and goals can all influence your progress. Our medically supervised approach starts by understanding you, then creating an individualized weight loss plan based on your needs.

Depending on your evaluation, your program may include laboratory testing, prescription weight loss medications such as GLP-1 therapy when clinically appropriate, nutrition and lifestyle guidance, and ongoing medical monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is medical weight loss?

Medical weight loss is a clinician-supervised approach to weight management that considers your health history, medications, lifestyle, goals and other factors that may affect weight. Treatment plans can include prescription medication, nutrition and lifestyle recommendations, laboratory testing and ongoing medical monitoring.

Do you offer GLP-1 weight loss medications?

GLP-1 medications may be available for appropriate patients following a medical evaluation. Your provider will determine whether prescription weight loss medication is appropriate for you and discuss available treatment options.

Do I need blood work before starting medical weight loss?

Yes. Blood work is required before beginning our medical weight loss program. Laboratory testing provides important baseline values and helps us identify underlying health conditions or other factors that may affect your ability to lose weight. These results also help us develop a more informed and personalized treatment plan.

How often will I be seen during my weight loss program?

Appointments are scheduled weekly to track progress, monitor any symptoms and adjust medication dosing as needed.

Can medical weight loss help if I've struggled to lose weight on my own?

Yes. If you’ve struggled to lose weight despite making changes on your own, medical weight loss can provide a more personalized approach. We look beyond willpower by evaluating your health history, laboratory results, medications, lifestyle, and other factors that may be affecting your progress. From there, we develop an individualized treatment plan that may include prescription weight loss medications, nutrition and lifestyle guidance, and ongoing medical support to help you achieve sustainable results.

What happens when I reach my goal weight?

Reaching your goal is an important milestone, but maintaining your progress matters too. We can adjust your treatment plan as your needs change and help you develop a long-term strategy focused on maintaining your results and supporting your overall health.

How much does medical weight loss cost at Maricopa Wellness Center?

Our medical weight loss program is $100 per week, which includes your weekly GLP-1 medication injection, Lipo/MIC + B12 injection, and a 15-minute medical follow-up visit to monitor your progress and provide ongoing support. Your initial medical weight loss consultation is $75. Required laboratory testing may be completed through your insurance or is available for $220 cash pay.

Will I have support throughout the program?

Yes. Ongoing support is an important part of our medical weight loss program. We monitor your progress, answer questions, address concerns or side effects, and adjust your treatment plan when appropriate. You’ll also receive our Tip of the Week with practical information to help you build healthier habits and stay successful throughout your journey.

How quickly will I lose weight?

Weight loss varies from person to person and depends on factors such as your starting weight, health history, treatment plan, lifestyle, and individual response. Rather than promising a specific number or timeline, our focus is on helping you make consistent progress toward sustainable results.
