What Is Medical Weight Loss?
Medical weight loss is a physician-guided approach to weight management that uses evidence-based treatments, including GLP-1 receptor agonists like compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide, to help adults achieve meaningful and sustainable results. Unlike general diet programs, medical weight loss treats the biological drivers of weight gain, including the hormones that regulate hunger, metabolism, and fat storage.
At R&A Wellness, medical weight loss is delivered entirely through telemedicine. Patients across our licensed states can access physician-guided care, compounded medications, and ongoing support without leaving home. Every protocol is personalized to your health history and goals, and all prescriptions require a telehealth consultation and approval by a licensed medical professional before medications are dispensed.
R&A Wellness is LegitScript certified, a formal compliance standard for telehealth providers that reflects our commitment to safe, transparent online prescribing.
When Dieting Alone Is Not Enough
How We Approach Medical Weight Loss at R&A Wellness
At R&A Wellness, we take a personalized, compliance-first approach to medical weight loss. Before any prescription is issued, your provider reviews your health history, current medications, and weight loss goals to confirm that treatment is clinically appropriate for you. We do not prescribe based on weight alone.
Our two primary weight loss treatments are compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide, both GLP-1 receptor agonists that work by reducing appetite, slowing digestion, and supporting metabolic function. Both are prescribed following a telehealth consultation with one of our licensed providers and dispensed through a licensed 503A compounding pharmacy with home delivery.
Once treatment begins, patients receive ongoing support through our telehealth model, including follow-up appointments to monitor response and adjust dosing as needed. Dr. Robert Vergara, emergency medicine physician with over 16 years of clinical experience, oversees patient care at R&A Wellness.
