GLP-1 and GIP/GLP-1 medications (such as Semaglutide and Tirzepatide) are injectable treatments that work with your body’s natural hormones to support safe, sustainable weight loss.
These medications mimic or enhance the hormones involved in appetite control, digestion, and blood sugar regulation — making it easier to lose weight without feeling constantly hungry or deprived.
GLP-1s, like Semaglutide, have already shown significant results when it comes to losing weight. In fact, according to one of the largest trials, patients lost around 6% of their initial body weight.
Over time, you will increase the dosage to ensure good results. During a consultation with our team, you’ll receive a complete treatment schedule.
For a limited time, we’re offering 20% off our 3-month medically supervised weight loss injection plan, designed to help you burn fat and curb cravings.
Many people struggle with overeating because their hunger cues feel out of balance. Weight-loss injections help regulate the hormones that control appetite.
Some injections work by slowing gastric emptying (how quickly food leaves your stomach). This keeps you feeling full and steady between meals, making it easier to stick to healthy portions.
Stable blood sugar is one of the foundations of effective weight loss. These injections help your body use glucose more efficiently, which can curb sugar cravings and support steady energy.
Weight-loss injections help your body switch into a more efficient fat-burning mode. This makes your efforts with food and movement pay off more noticeably.
If you’re feeling stuck– like nothing you do is working– we’re here to help. Our medically guided weight-loss program is designed to support safe, steady, and sustainable results. You may be a good candidate if:
| Medication | How It Works | Frequency | Ideal For… |
|---|---|---|---|
| Semaglutide | GLP-1 agonist | Weekly injection | Gradual weight loss, diabetes management |
| Tirzepatide | GLP-1 + GIP agonist | Weekly injection | Enhanced fat loss, better insulin control |
| Retatrutide | GLP-1 + GIP + glucagon agonist | Weekly injection | Next-gen triple action for significant fat loss and metabolic benefits |
| Cagrilintide | Often used with GLP-1 | Weekly injection | Promotes satiety, delays gastric emptying, and enhances weight loss |
At Neaman Wellness Center, we believe your weight-loss journey should feel supported, personalized, and rooted in real medical expertise. Our team takes time to understand your history and goals, designing a weight-loss plan tailored specifically to your body.

Initial Phone Consultation
Weight-loss injectable treatment begins with an initial phone conversation where our team will determine if you’re a good candidate. You’ll learn more about weight loss injections and what you can expect. From there, a consultation will be scheduled with Dr. Dennis Barnett.
In-Person Consultation
During your first consultation with Dr. Barnett, you will discuss your:
lab work results
medical and family history
current diet and exercise regimen
Dr. Barnett will suggest lifestyle changes that can help improve your results. You’ll learn about your starting dosage and how to administer the injections. It’s important to ask any questions you have to ensure you feel comfortable with the process.
Begin Treatment
Once you’ve received your medication and started treatment, you’ll schedule a routine check-in with our team in about 3 months. We’ll discuss your results and check your weight to ensure everything is working as planned, then you’ll receive your next round of medication.
Routine Check-Ins
Most patients check in every 3 months, though this frequency can change depending on your unique treatment plan. During each check-in, you’ll meet with a physician assistant to assess your progress and determine if an increase in dosage is appropriate.
Patients typically lose 10-15% of their body weight when on semaglutide. If you start at 200 lbs, you are likely to lose 20-30 lbs.
Semaglutide works by mimicking GLP-1, a natural hormone produced by the body. This slows digestion, makes you feel fuller longer, reduces your appetite, and helps you eat fewer calories and lose weight.
Reaching your weight-loss goal is just the beginning. We’re committed to helping you maintain your target weight and improved well-being.
Your care plan may shift to lower-dose medications or transition to lifestyle-based support, including nutrition, movement, and hormone optimization.
If you have loose skin, we can recommend non-surgical tightening or refer you to our trusted plastic surgery team for body contouring.
Our focus is on building long-term health, confidence, and habits that help you feel your best for life.
