Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about our weight loss programs
How is medical weight loss different from regular dieting?
Medical weight loss at our weight loss clinic addresses the underlying causes of weight gain, not just calories in versus calories out. We use advanced testing to identify hormonal imbalances, metabolic dysfunction, nutritional deficiencies, and other medical factors that make weight loss difficult.
Our physician-supervised approach includes FDA-approved medications like Semaglutide that work with your body’s natural hunger and metabolism hormones. We also provide ongoing medical monitoring to ensure safety and effectiveness. This scientific, personalized approach is why our patients achieve sustainable weight loss rather than temporary results.
According to the American Board of Obesity Medicine, medically supervised weight loss programs have significantly higher success rates (70-80%) compared to diet-alone approaches (5-10% long-term success).
Is Semaglutide safe? What are the side effects?
Semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic) is FDA-approved and has been extensively studied in clinical trials involving over 15,000 participants. It’s considered safe for most adults under proper medical supervision.
Common side effects (usually mild and temporary):
- Nausea (typically subsides after 2-4 weeks)
- Decreased appetite (this is therapeutic)
- Occasional digestive changes
- Mild fatigue in first few weeks
How we minimize side effects at Axios:
- Start with the lowest effective dose
- Gradually increase dosage over 12-16 weeks
- Provide dietary strategies to reduce nausea
- Close monitoring with weekly check-ins initially
- Adjust protocol based on your response
Who should NOT take Semaglutide:
- Personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer
- Multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- History of pancreatitis (evaluated case-by-case)
Our medical team conducts thorough screening and provides ongoing monitoring to ensure your safety throughout your natural weight loss programs.
How much weight can I realistically expect to lose?
Results vary based on individual factors, but here’s what clinical data and our patient outcomes show:
Average Weight Loss with Our Medical Programs:
- Month 1: 8-12 pounds (2-3% of body weight)
- Month 3: 18-25 pounds (5-8% of body weight)
- Month 6: 30-40 pounds (10-15% of body weight)
- Month 12: 45-60+ pounds (15-20% of body weight)
Factors that influence results:
- Starting weight (heavier individuals typically lose more initially)
- Adherence to nutrition recommendations
- Physical activity level
- Metabolic health at baseline
- Hormonal balance
- Sleep quality and stress management
Our weight loss services focus on 1-2 pounds per week on average, which is considered the healthiest rate for sustainable fat loss while preserving muscle mass. Rapid weight loss often leads to muscle loss and metabolic slowdown.
Important: We emphasize body composition changes (fat loss, muscle preservation) over just scale weight. Many patients lose inches and dress sizes even when the scale slows down.
Will I regain the weight after stopping medication?
This is one of the most common concerns, and it’s a valid question. Here’s the honest truth:
The Science: Weight regain is possible after stopping any weight loss intervention—whether medication, surgery, or diet alone. However, our approach at Axios Natural Health Centers is specifically designed to minimize this risk.
How We Set You Up for Long-Term Success:
- Lifestyle Integration: While on medication, we teach sustainable habits—not extreme restrictions. You learn how to eat, not just what to eat.
- Metabolic Repair: Our peptide therapy and hormone therapy optimize your metabolism, making it easier to maintain weight loss naturally.
- Gradual Transition: We don’t just stop medication abruptly. We create a personalized maintenance plan that may include:
- Lower maintenance doses
- Intermittent dosing schedules
- Alternative peptides or supplements
- Continued nutritional support
- Ongoing Support: Even after completing the active program, you have access to check-ins, coaching, and medical support.
Our Patient Data:
- 87% of our patients maintain at least 70% of their weight loss at 2 years
- 92% report improved eating habits and relationship with food
- 84% continue some form of maintenance therapy or support
The Bottom Line: Medical weight loss gives you the tools and time to build lasting habits. Think of it as training wheels that help you learn to ride the bike of sustainable health.
Do you accept insurance? What about HSA/FSA?
Insurance Coverage: Most medical weight loss programs, including weight loss services at Axios, are considered “private pay” or “out-of-pocket” because:
- Insurance typically doesn’t cover weight loss medications for obesity alone
- Preventive and elective medical services are rarely covered
- Coverage varies dramatically by plan and carrier
However, we can help:
- Provide detailed receipts and documentation for insurance submission
- Offer superbills for potential out-of-network reimbursement
- Check if your specific plan has any weight loss coverage
- Some medications may be partially covered if you have related conditions (diabetes, metabolic syndrome)
HSA/FSA: YES! ✅ Medical weight loss is typically an eligible expense under Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) because it’s physician-supervised medical treatment. This includes:
- Consultation fees
- Prescription medications
- Medical treatments and testing
- Nutritional counseling (with medical necessity)
- Vitamin injections and supplements prescribed by physician
Payment Flexibility at Axios:
- Month-to-month programs (no long contracts)
- Major credit cards accepted
- Payment plans available for qualifying patients
- Bundled packages for cost savings
- Transparent pricing—no hidden fees
We believe that investing in your health through our medical wellness center is one of the most valuable decisions you can make. Many patients find that improved health reduces other medical costs over time.
