Diet and exercise stopped working and the weight won't move? You've come to the right place.
Range Medical starts with labs and a full assessment. If weight loss medication is right for you, your provider will build a supervised plan around your body, your goals, and your life.
We'll review your labs and symptoms, then decide together if weight loss medication belongs in your plan.Is this you?
- Gaining weight even when you're eating well and exercising
- Constant hunger and cravings you can't control
- Tried diets and programs that worked for a while, then stopped
- Low energy and brain fog that make it hard to stay motivated
- Your metabolism feels like it's working against you
- Feeling frustrated that nothing seems to stick
We don't just write prescriptions. We find the cause.
Every patient starts with the Range Assessment — detailed labs (metabolic markers, thyroid, hormones, and more), a symptom review, and a one-on-one conversation with your provider. If your labs and history show that weight loss medication is a good fit, we'll prescribe the right one at the right dose and supervise your progress with real check-ins — not just refills.
Modern weight loss medications work on your brain's hunger centers to naturally reduce appetite and cravings. Clinical trials show 15–25% body weight loss over 6–12 months. These medications also improve metabolic markers like insulin sensitivity, blood sugar, and cholesterol.
Your road depends on how far you are going.
Six stops either way. How long you spend on each one comes down to how much you are setting out to lose.
The Last Twenty
The last twenty pounds do not respond to more effort. They respond to a different plan.
Your first callDay one
A complimentary call with a provider
Twenty minutes on the phone. You tell us what you are already doing, because at twenty pounds you are usually doing most of it right. We are looking for the part that is quietly working against you.
You- Book the call
- Tell us what your week actually looks like
We- Listen before we recommend anything
- Tell you straight if this is not the right fit
Baseline labsWeek 1
Baseline labs and your plan
Labs come first. At this range the reason effort stopped working is often thyroid, insulin, or hormones rather than calories, and that changes what we prescribe.
You- Come in fasted for your blood draw
- Set your starting weight with us
We- Run your full baseline panel
- Look for the metabolic reason your progress stalled
Losing the weightWeeks 1 to 8
Eight weeks of active loss
The shortest stretch of any of our roads. We adjust as your body responds rather than waiting for you to stall and then reacting to it.
You- Weigh in and check in on schedule
- Tell us about energy, cravings, and side effects
We- Adjust medication, nutrition, and activity as you respond
- Follow-up labs around week 8
Holding steadyWeeks 9 to 16
Eight weeks holding the new number
Nothing dramatic happens here, and that is exactly the point. Your body stops treating this weight as an emergency and starts treating it as normal.
You- Hold steady. Not losing is the goal here
- Keep the routines that got you this far
We- Raise your intake gradually as it becomes safe
- Begin reducing medication when clinically appropriate
Eating normally againWeeks 17 to 24
Learn to live at your new weight
Food and training come back up to a level you can hold without thinking about it. For most people at this range, that means eating more than they did before they started.
You- Practice the routines while we are still watching
- Bring us the hard weeks, not just the good ones
We- Raise intake and activity to a sustainable level
- Build your long-term follow-up plan
Keeping it offOngoing
Keep it
You move into Range Continued Care. Ongoing labs, follow-ups, and easy access to adjustments so twenty pounds never creeps back one pound at a time.
You- Keep your check-ins on the calendar
We- Ongoing labs and provider follow-ups
- Adjust when life changes
Twenty pounds is the easiest amount to lose and the easiest to put back. Half of this road is spent making sure it stays gone.
Example treatment plans
Your provider will only recommend weight loss medication if your labs and history show it's a good fit. These are common examples, not a self-serve menu.
For patients ready to start weight loss medication with full provider supervision.
Weekly injections, monthly check-ins, labs at baseline and throughout.
For patients whose labs show hormonal or metabolic factors contributing to weight gain.
Weight loss medication plus hormone or thyroid support as needed.
For patients nearing their goal who want to transition to long-term habits.
Lower maintenance dose, quarterly labs, ongoing provider support.
Medical Weight Loss Program: starts at $499 / month when run alone
Most multi-system optimization plans (2 to 3 areas at once) range from $749 to $999 a month. Your provider will recommend the right combination based on labs.
What patients have experienced.
Real outcomes from our Newport Beach clinic. Names withheld for privacy. Every case started with a Range Assessment.
What if you have been here before?
Most people who walk in have already lost the same twenty pounds two or three times. That history is the reason to start, not a reason to skip it.
What if I have already tried the medication and it stopped working?
That is one of the most common reasons people come to us. It usually means the dose, the timing, or what is happening underneath it was never adjusted. Your provider looks at your labs and your history and changes the plan rather than restarting the same one.
What if I lose the weight and gain it straight back?
That is the part most programs never address, so we plan for it out loud. Coming off the program is a scheduled conversation with your provider, not something you do alone when the last box runs out.
What if the weight is not really the problem?
Sometimes it is not. Thyroid, insulin, hormones and sleep all show up in bloodwork, and any one of them can be why nothing you have tried has held. That is what the labs are for, and it is why we run them before prescribing.
What if I want to stop?
You tell your provider and you stop. There is no annual contract and no cancellation fee. We would rather build you a safe off-ramp than have you disappear mid-plan.

Your provider will recommend the right medication based on your labs, medical history, and goals. We'll discuss all options during your assessment.
Results vary. Clinical trials show patients typically lose 15–25% of their body weight over 6–12 months. Your results depend on your starting point, adherence, and lifestyle.
No. Many patients use weight loss medication for 6–12 months to reach their goal, then maintain with healthy habits. Some choose a maintenance dose. We'll build a plan that fits your situation.
The most common is mild nausea, especially in the first few weeks. It usually improves as your body adjusts. We start low and increase gradually to minimize this.
We don't just write prescriptions. We run comprehensive labs, monitor your metabolic health, adjust dosing based on your response, and provide real medical supervision — not a telehealth script mill.
