As with all of our services, our weight loss plans are based on each individual’s health status and goals. Your personalized plan is designed to assist you in succeeding not only in losing weight but keeping it off. More importantly, our focus is on optimal health not just weight loss. We believe baseline blood work is an essential part of developing a patient’s care plan. We assess for potential concerns as well as determine if a hormonal imbalance may be contributing to weight gain and inability to lose weight. Any program that does not screen for low thyroid function may be missing a crucial piece of information for current treatment and long term management. Baseline blood work also allows patients to track their overall health improvements as they progress through our program.
Our Fit3D scan is included in our program at no additional cost. It provides comprehensive information including weight, body measurements, percent body fat, muscle mass, posture and even creates a 3D image of your body using 3 cameras. You will receive a log in to review your results online. At every visit you are offered the opportunity to scan. This allows us to track weight, percent body fat and muscle mass to ensure patients are not losing muscle mass. At the end you will be able to compare your images to visually see the progress you made.
Our nurse practitioners have been successfully prescribing GLP-1 peptides as part of a weight loss program since 2021. We are not a Med Spa adding on this service or a national chain that popped up just to make quick money on the newest trend. We truly understand the benefits and know how to manage the side effects of these medications. We have relationships with several reputable compounding pharmacies that provide the product for us. If you want a comprehensive program with a provider dedicated to your success, please give us a call for a free consultation. Our pricing is transparent with no hidden costs.
The use of peptides, including GLP-1’s, has been a proven method of weight loss in the past several years. This has been proven by the high rate of successful use across all segments of the population.
Unfortunately, the FDA and Big Pharma are making it difficult for average Americans to access these life changing medications. At Pinnacle Health, we believe in patient autonomy when choosing what treatments to pursue for each patient’s unique circumstances.
Our providers have been prescribing weight loss medications since 2021 with great success. We have long-term relationships with reputable compounding pharmacies who formulate medications with additional vitamins, peptide blends, and varied strength formulations to provide the patient (you) with a stable medication, formulated for high efficacy and limited side effects.
It is always our intent to treat our patients with the most effective medications, refrain from unnecessary additional medications (i.e. for nausea or energy) and recommend a dosing schedule that allows our patients to thrive while under our care.
GLP-1’s are available in both injectable and oral (sublingual) formulations.
Additionally, our office is conveniently located in Venice, Florida. Our small staff is comprised of trained and skilled medical practitioners with whom our patients develop a real, face-to-face relationship with over the course of their care. We see our patients regularly to monitor their health and progress, and we are medical professionals able to assist through all stages of your weight loss journey. We are a medical office, not a med-spa. This distinction is critical when it comes to patient care.

Before (left) and after 10 weeks of injections (right)
I have been 230 pounds and I have been at my lowest 140 pounds, so when I say I know about the struggles with weight loss- I do. It seems like I’ve been on a diet since I was 14 years old. I am now almost 50. The last medically supervised weight loss program I tried did not work (and believe me I tried and followed all the instructions). I took all the oral medications, bought the shakes and the bars, and went into the office weekly to weigh in. All to be disappointed- I gained a 1/2 pound despite my willpower.
The weight loss program is a game changer for people like me. I have lost 22 pounds in 10 weeks. I had no expectations of losing this weight before summer and I am in shock, the number on the scale keeps going down and finally matches my hard work! I don’t follow a special “diet”, I don’t have to go into the office weekly and I don’t buy any shakes or special meals. I take a shot once a week, eat healthy, I am conscious of what I eat and the portion size. (Calories in versus calories out as Christine says) I stay hydrated and have an active lifestyle (Pilates). And my body now responds the way it was intended to. This honestly was the easiest way to lose weight. I feel like my metabolism has been reset and my body is using insulin/glucose and metabolizing it correctly! I can’t thank Christine enough for helping me!
