Weight Loss & Health at Trailhead Wellness Medicine
At Trailhead Wellness Medicine, your weight isn’t just about a number on the scale—it’s about helping you feel healthier, stronger, and more at home in your body. As a DO, I take a whole-person approach, combing medical expertise with personalized care to achieve lasting results.
You’ll have in-person visits and ongoing access to me for guidance and support. Together, we’ll build a plan tailored to your lifestyle and biology—not just focused on weight, but on true health.
Weight loss can be simple, but it isn’t always easy. Risks like muscle and bone loss, along with weight regain, are real if not managed carefully. That’s why I focus on sustainable habits and long-term success, not quick fixes.
Wherever you’re starting, there’s a path forward. Whether it’s walking, yoga, strength training, or something more adventurous, I’ll help you find what fits your life and keeps you engaged.
My goal is simple: help you feel confident, healthy, and able to fully enjoy your life.
Tirzepatide (GLP-1)
Tirzepatide is a clinically proven peptide that supports weight management, improves insulin sensitivity, and promotes metabolic health. Combined with lifestyle guidance and medical oversight, these therapies can help you achieve sustainable weight loss and better overall wellness safely. This is an injection that is self -administered. The frequency of injections will depend on what we decide would be best for you.
If you’d like ZepBound or the brand name, it can be prescribed but will be much more expensive and we cannot customize the dose as the pen comes in standard doses. By using a compounded version of the medication we can customize the dose to minimize the side effects and be precise with your treatment.
We will take on a holistic approach and address nutritional strategies as well as physical activity in order to ensure lifestyle changes to achieve your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Sustainable weight loss and metabolic optimization take time. Three months gives your body time to adapt, allows us to monitor labs safely, and ensures your habits are built for long-term success. Shorter timelines rarely produce lasting results and can result in a loss of bone density and threaten hormone or thyroid health.
-
Many patients continue with maintenance visits or transition from one program to another based on support. Follow-ups are flexible, so you can keep progressing safely and sustainably.
-
Online programs often lack medical oversight, individualized labs, and real-time adjustments. Without personalized guidance:
You risk losing muscle instead of fat
Lab abnormalities can go undetected
Medications may be used incorrectly, causing side effects
Progress is often temporary with frequent weight regain
-
We don’t use one-size-fits-all meal plans or restrictive diets. Your program is based on your labs, hormone status, lifestyle, and goals — including nutrition, movement, and medication strategies. We monitor progress and adjust as needed.
-
Labs are paid by the patient. Many are insurance-reimbursable, and we provide documentation for submission. Baseline labs are done before starting, with follow-ups every 16-24 weeks if using medications.

Review your labs and health markers regularly
Adjust medications, nutrition, or movement strategies safely
Provide consistent support and guidance as your body adapts
Maintain a continuous doctor-patient relationship, ensuring your care is personalized, safe, and effective
-
Not necessarily. Medication use is always individualized based on your goals, health, and lab results. Some patients continue for maintenance if it helps preserve metabolic health, while others can taper or stop safely under medical supervision.
