  • How Semaglutide Works

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics a naturally occurring hormone in the body responsible for regulating hunger and blood sugar levels. It slows down digestion, reduces appetite, and helps control cravings, making it easier for individuals to maintain a calorie deficit and lose weight effectively.

  • Benefits of Semaglutide for Weight Loss

Patients using Semaglutide for weight loss experience several benefits beyond shedding excess pounds. The medication helps with appetite suppression, making it easier to control food intake. It supports healthy blood sugar regulation, reducing the risk of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Semaglutide has also been linked to improved cardiovascular health by lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Many individuals report enhanced energy levels, improved mood, and better overall health as they progress through the program.

  • Personalized Treatment & Monitoring

At Affinity Primary & Family Practice, we believe in a patient-centered approach. Our team conducts a comprehensive medical evaluation before prescribing Semaglutide to ensure it is a suitable option based on each patient’s medical history, lifestyle, and weight loss goals. Throughout the treatment, we provide ongoing monitoring and dosage adjustments to optimize results while minimizing side effects.

  • Integrating Semaglutide with Lifestyle Changes

While Semaglutide is an effective tool for weight loss, it works best when combined with a healthy diet and regular physical activity. Our team provides nutritional guidance, exercise recommendations, and behavioral coaching to help patients develop sustainable habits that support long-term weight management.

  • Is Semaglutide Right for You?

Semaglutide is typically recommended for individuals with a BMI of 27 or higher with weight-related health conditions or a BMI of 30 or greater. It is an excellent option for those who have struggled with weight loss through traditional methods and need medical support to achieve their goals. Our healthcare providers will evaluate each patient’s medical history and weight loss objectives to determine if Semaglutide is the right choice.
