Medical Weight Management in West Island
Our weight management program serves West Island residents with the modern obesity medicine standard of care. Care starts with a 45-minute consultation, a targeted metabolic panel (fasting glucose, HbA1c, lipids, TSH, liver, kidney, sometimes fasting insulin), and a written plan. When indicated, we prescribe GLP-1 or dual-incretin therapy (semaglutide, tirzepatide) with close monitoring during titration.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a specific BMI to qualify for GLP-1 therapy?+
Standard indications are BMI ≥ 30, or ≥ 27 with a metabolic comorbidity. Evaluation matters more than a single number.
Are GLP-1 medications covered by insurance in Quebec?+
Coverage varies. Ozempic is often covered when a diabetes indication exists; Wegovy coverage is expanding. We check both before you start.
How often do West Island patients need to travel to the clinic?+
The initial visit is in person. Most follow-ups can be virtual unless a physical measurement is needed.
