Weight Loss Management

At EVERGREEN HEALTHCARE CLINIC, our weight loss management program combines medical expertise with modern treatment options, including GLP-1 weight loss medications. In just one visit, our licensed providers review your health, lifestyle, and goals to design a plan tailored specifically to you—not a generic template. Each program integrates clinical supervision, nutritional guidance, and evidence-based strategies for safe, lasting results.

We recognize that meaningful change requires more than a diet—it requires the right tools, support, and accountability. With GLP-1 medications, patients often experience reduced appetite, improved blood sugar control, and sustainable weight loss when combined with healthy lifestyle changes. Our team carefully monitors your progress, adjusts your treatment as needed, and provides ongoing encouragement to keep you motivated. With this approach, clients don’t just lose weight—they gain confidence, energy, and long-term control of their health.

What is GLP-1 Medication?

GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) medications are FDA-approved treatments originally developed to help regulate blood sugar. They work by mimicking a natural hormone in the body that slows digestion, reduces appetite, and helps you feel fuller for longer. When combined with healthy lifestyle changes, GLP-1 therapy has been shown to support significant and sustainable weight loss.

How Does GLP-1 Support Weight Loss?

• Reduces appetite and cravings by helping you feel satisfied with smaller meals
• Stabilizes blood sugar levels, lowering the risk of spikes and crashes that lead to overeating
• Slows stomach emptying, which promotes longer-lasting fullness and reduces calorie intake
• Encourages sustainable results when paired with nutritional guidance, exercise, and medical supervision
• Improves overall health outcomes, including reduced risks for diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease

What is Tirzepatide?

Tirzepatide is a prescription medication designed to help with weight loss by engaging two natural appetite-regulating hormones:

• GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1)
• GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide)

By activating both, Tirzepatide enhances the effects of reducing appetite, slowing gastric emptying (so you feel fuller longer), and improving how your body uses insulin. Originally studied for diabetes, it has shown strong results for weight loss in clinical trials.

How Does Tirzepatide Weight Loss?

Tirzepatide is a once-weekly injectable medication that works by targeting two natural hormones in your body that control blood sugar and appetite:

• GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) – helps you feel full faster, slows down how quickly food leaves your stomach, and reduces cravings.
• GIP (Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide) – improves how your body uses insulin and also helps regulate appetite.

By activating both of these hormones, Tirzepatide:

• Reduces hunger and cravings so you eat less.
• Keeps you feeling full longer after meals.
• Supports steady blood sugar levels, which prevents energy crashes and sudden food cravings.
• Encourages steady, gradual weight loss when combined with healthy eating and activity.
