Weight loss is no longer a simple formula of eating less, and exercising more
When these biological systems are disrupted, traditional dieting strategies often fail to produce lasting results.
Modern packaged foods are engineered to stimulate the brain’s reward system, with excess sugar, refined carbohydrates, fats, and salt.
Stress, sleep disruption, insulin resistance, and hormonal shifts can interfere with hunger signals and make weight regulation more difficult.
Food is now constantly available and heavily marketed, creating a persistent cycle of cravings.

How Treatment Works
Complete a Medical Intake
Patients begin by completing a secure online health questionnaire that collects information about medical history, current medications, and health goals.
Physician Review
A licensed physician from the Mevo Health medical network reviews the patient’s medical information to determine whether treatment is appropriate. If necessary, physicians may request additional information to ensure responsible prescribing.
Personalized Treatment Plan
If a patient is a good candidate for treatment, the physician develops a personalized plan that includes evidence-based medications and guidance designed to support sustainable weight management.
Ongoing Support
Weight management is an ongoing process. Patients receive continued physician oversight and guidance to help monitor progress, adjust treatment if needed, and support long-term health improvements.

How GLP Medications Work
Hormone Regulation
GLP-1 medications mimic our natural hunger hormones to signal fullness to the brain, leading to consumption of smaller portions.
Reduced Cravings
Cravings are due to dopamine-driven reward pathways in the brain that respond to highly palatable foods. GLP-1 medications help regulate this response, making cravings for sugary and high-fat foods easier to manage.
Improved Blood Sugar Regulation
Your hunger hormones are tied to insulin release and your body’s metabolism of sugar. GLP-1s improve how the body responds to food intake, helping to stabilize blood sugar levels.
Slowed Digestion
GLP-1s slow how quickly food leaves the stomach and enters the small intestine. This helps prolong feelings of fullness so you aren’t as hungry between meals.
FAQ
How do I know if I’m eligible?
Eligibility for medical weight loss treatment is determined through a physician evaluation. During your intake, you’ll provide information about your medical history, current medications, and health goals so a licensed physician can determine whether treatment is appropriate for you. Factors such as existing medical conditions, current medications, and overall health are all considered before any treatment plan is recommended.
Do I need insurance?
No. Mevo Health operates as a direct-pay telemedicine service, which means treatment does not require insurance.
Can I cancel anytime?
Plans are offered in monthly, quarterly, and six-month options. You can choose the plan length that works best for you, and you can cancel before your next billing cycle if you decide not to continue.
Are compounded medications regulated?
Compounded medications are prepared by licensed U.S. pharmacies based on an individual physician’s prescription for a specific patient. These pharmacies operate under state pharmacy board oversight and prepare medications according to established compounding standards. At Mevo Health, treatment decisions are made by licensed physicians who review each patient’s medical history and health needs to determine whether a compounded formulation is appropriate based on clinical guidelines.
What if I have questions after I start?
Medical weight management is an ongoing process, and support doesn’t stop after your initial consultation. Patients maintain access to their provider team for questions, treatment adjustments, and guidance throughout their care. You’ll also have access to a community of individuals working toward similar health goals, which many patients find helpful for accountability and support.
