Medical weight loss
Physician-led metabolic care, with labs and a real plan.
Care starts with a metabolic workup, and the plan is built from what it shows. GLP-1 and related agents are prescribed when the labs support them, dosed and followed month over month. Because Dr. Shantanu Baghel, DO also manages psychiatric medication, weight, mood, and the prescriptions that affect both are handled as one plan.
Metabolic care, built from the labs.
Metabolic workup
Labs that establish the metabolic picture, so treatment addresses the cause.
Pharmacotherapy where appropriate
GLP-1 and related agents prescribed when clinically indicated, individualized to your situation.
Longitudinal follow-up
Progress, labs, and tolerability reviewed over months, with the plan adjusted as your body responds.
Lifestyle integration
Medication set within the wider context of sleep, mood, and metabolism, which move together whether or not the medication is working.
