Medical Weight Loss — Provider-Led, Step by Step

At Midwest Weight Wellness & NAD, medical weight loss is delivered through a structured clinical process led by a licensed Nurse Practitioner. Treatment decisions are based on medical guidelines, safety, and individual health needs — not one-size-fits-all programs.

​​

Step 1: Secure Medical Intake

You begin by completing a confidential online medical intake form. This includes information about your:

• Weight history and goals

• Current medical conditions

• Medications and supplements

• Prior weight-loss treatments

All information is reviewed as part of your medical record.

​

Step 2: Medical Evaluation by a Licensed Nurse Practitioner

Your intake is reviewed during a one-on-one telehealth visit with a licensed Nurse Practitioner.

During this consultation, we:

• Review your health history

• Assess eligibility for medical weight loss

• Discuss potential treatment options

• Answer questions and review expectations

Not every patient is a candidate for GLP-1 therapy. Appropriateness is determined medically.
 

Step 3: Clinical Review & Safety Screening

When indicated, additional review may include:

• Evaluation of contraindications

• Review of prior or current lab results

• Documentation of clinical need

If compounded medication is considered, the clinical need for compounding is documented in accordance with medical and pharmacy standards.
 

Step 4: Prescription & Pharmacy Fulfillment

If a GLP-1 medication or other therapy is clinically appropriate, a prescription is issued by the Nurse Practitioner and fulfilled through a licensed pharmacy.

• Medications are dispensed by the pharmacy

• Shipping and handling are managed by the pharmacy

• Medication costs are separate from medical service fees

Medications are prescribed only when appropriate and are not guaranteed.

​

Step 5: Ongoing Medical Care & Monitoring

Medical weight loss requires follow-up and monitoring. Patients enrolled in ongoing care receive:

• Regular provider follow-ups

• Dose adjustments when clinically appropriate

• Monitoring of progress and tolerability

• Continuity with the same Nurse Practitioner

This is medical care — not a subscription service or automated program.
 

Important Information

• All patients must complete an initial medical consultation

• Medications are prescribed only when clinically appropriate

• Compounded medications are used only when a documented clinical need exists

• Medication and shipping costs are not included in consultation or program fees

• Individual results and treatment plans vary
