Most weight-loss programs start with a meal plan. This one starts with a medical evaluation. That difference matters because sustainable weight management depends on metabolic factors, hormonal balance, lab markers, and health history that no nutrition template can account for on its own. If past approaches have produced short-term results followed by regression, the issue is usually that the plan was not built on sufficient clinical data to begin with.
At VIVE Med Spa, we offer medical weight loss in Verona, WI, for patients throughout Fitchburg, Madison, Middleton, Oregon, Belleville, and New Glarus. Wisconsin’s seasonal rhythms, reduced daylight, and limited winter activity all work against sustained weight management. A structured medical program accounts for those factors in ways commercial diets cannot.
Weight Loss 4 ME is our medically supervised weight loss program, designed to provide much more than simply prescribing medication. Together, we focus on nutrition, lifestyle, body composition, metabolic health, and long-term success.
Care begins with the 90-minute comprehensive assessment. From there, ongoing care is structured as a monthly program that includes:
You pay for the initial assessment, then a monthly fee that covers your ongoing care.
If you are not sure a full assessment is the right first step, a complimentary 15-minute discovery call connects you directly with a nurse practitioner. You describe what you have tried and what you are hoping to achieve, and your provider tells you whether the program is likely to fit.
You will also leave the call understanding how the program is structured, what the assessment covers, how injectable weight-loss medications are prescribed when appropriate, and what it costs. There is no commitment to schedule and no obligation. The call is available by phone or telehealth.
The comprehensive weight-loss assessment is a 90-minute, in-depth medical evaluation conducted by a nurse practitioner. It examines the metabolic, hormonal, nutritional, and behavioral factors influencing your weight and overall health, providing the clinical foundation for a treatment plan that reflects your specific physiology rather than a generalized protocol.
This is not a consultation about which diet to try next. It is a medical appointment that produces actionable clinical data and a personalized plan built from that data.
Your health background, including underlying conditions, hormonal status, medication history, and prior weight-loss experiences, is reviewed to identify factors that may be influencing your metabolism or working against your efforts.
Lab work is ordered when necessary to evaluate key health markers, including blood sugar levels and insulin resistance. These results inform the clinical direction of your plan and establish a measurable baseline for tracking progress.
Your assessment produces tailored recommendations covering dietary adjustments, exercise routines suited to your energy levels and physical condition, lifestyle modifications, and gut health optimization strategies, including Akkermansia muciniphila supplementation where appropriate.
For qualifying patients, injectable weight-loss medication, such as GLP-1 receptor agonists, may be incorporated into the plan. These injections work by regulating appetite, slowing gastric emptying, and improving insulin sensitivity, and are prescribed only after your assessment confirms they are clinically appropriate for your health profile. Two options are available depending on what fits your goals and budget: compounded tirzepatide or Zepbound® obtained through Eli Lilly Direct, and your nurse practitioner will walk you through the differences to help you choose.
Following your assessment, you will receive a customized action plan that includes nutritional strategy, exercise guidance, and medical support options tailored to your results. If your plan includes injectable weight-loss medication, your nurse practitioner will walk you through the administration schedule, the expected response timeline, and how dosing is adjusted based on your progress.
Once you move forward with Weight Loss 4 ME, follow-up sessions track your progress with body composition analysis and lab monitoring, allowing adjustments as your body responds.
The difference between a medically supervised program and a commercial one is that the clinical program starts by understanding why your body is holding on to weight before recommending how to lose it. At VIVE Med Spa, every assessment is conducted by a nurse practitioner with the clinical training to interpret lab data, account for underlying conditions, and determine whether medication or a non-pharmaceutical approach is the better fit.
Patients from Verona, Fitchburg, Madison, Middleton, and the surrounding communities choose VIVE because the plan they receive is built on their specific data, not a template applied to every person who walks through the door.
It depends. If you have completed core lab work within the past year, your nurse practitioner will review it and determine whether additional testing is needed for your specific situation.
Coverage varies by provider. We recommend checking with your insurance company about medical weight-loss programs. The assessment is $250 for a 90-minute appointment.
Schedule a complimentary 15-minute discovery call first. It is a no-obligation conversation that helps determine whether moving forward with the assessment makes sense for your situation.
Most patients begin noticing changes within the first few weeks of their plan. Sustainable weight loss typically progresses at 1 to 3 pounds per week, depending on adherence and individual metabolic response.
No. Injectable medications like GLP-1 receptor agonists are prescribed based on clinical criteria, including BMI, metabolic markers, and health history. Your assessment determines whether you qualify and whether the benefits outweigh any risks for your specific profile. Not every patient requires medication to achieve their goals.
At VIVE Med Spa in Verona, WI, sustainable weight management begins with a clinical foundation, not a calorie count. Patients from Fitchburg, Madison, Middleton, and across Dane County trust us to build their plan on the evidence their bodies provide.
