It is a specific credential in the clinical management of weight (physiology, pharmacology, comorbidities and the behavioural side) held on top of her nurse practitioner licence. It is the difference between a clinic that prescribes a GLP-1 and a clinician who manages weight as a medical condition, which is why our weight-loss programme runs with labs and review rather than as a repeat prescription.

No: she is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner across the aesthetic menu too, with particular focus on non-surgical facial rejuvenation, collagen stimulation and laser work. The weight-loss programme is the part of the practice that would not exist without her certification, which is why it is what she is known for.

Yes, and plenty of people do. Request her when you book. She is the named provider on Sculptra and on lip filler among others, and her background in preventive health tends to show up as a slower, more explanatory first appointment.

No referral is needed. You do need labs, a proper intake and review appointments every eight weeks, because that is what makes it a medical programme rather than a prescription. It is also out of pocket only. We do not bill insurance, and we would rather you knew that before booking than at the end.

Not usually, and that is deliberate. The first appointment is intake and labs; prescribing follows once there is something to prescribe against. Anyone offering you a GLP-1 on day one without bloodwork is selling the easy half of a programme and skipping the part that keeps it safe.

Then she will say so, and that outcome is more common than people expect. Contraindications, personal and family history, and what you are actually trying to achieve all feed into it. Weight management without a GLP-1 is a real conversation here rather than a consolation prize.
