Know Your Medical History Before Starting Wegovy

At Lifestyle Med Spa, we prioritize your safety and well-being by thoroughly reviewing your medical history before starting weight loss drugs like Wegovy. More than simply measuring your body mass index (BMI), we screen for conditions like thyroid cancer, high blood pressure, low blood sugar, and kidney disease. This allows us to understand how your unique health profile will interact with weight loss medicine, so we can create a tailored plan for sustainable weight management and optimal results.
