What to Expect During Your First Medical Weight Loss Visit

Starting a medical weight loss program is a big step—and we know it can feel a little overwhelming at first. At Modern Wellness Clinic in Summerlin, we make your first visit as welcoming and informative as possible.

Whether you’ve tried dieting in the past or are just beginning your weight loss journey, your first visit is where real change begins.

Step 1: A Warm Welcome

As soon as you arrive, our front desk team will greet you and help you get settled. We want you to feel at ease. We’ll ask you to fill out a quick health history form so our team can learn more about your goals and background.

Step 2: Health Evaluation

You’ll meet with one of our licensed providers who will take time to really understand your story. This includes:

  • Reviewing your health history and lifestyle
  • Discussing previous diet or weight loss attempts
  • Talking about current challenges like stress, cravings, or low energy
  • Checking your weight, blood pressure, and other basic vitals

In some cases, we may recommend lab work to better understand what your body needs, including checking hormone levels, thyroid function, or insulin resistance.

Step 3: Personalized Plan Creation

Once we have a full picture of your health, we’ll create a plan that fits your body and goals. This may include:

  • A nutrition guide that’s simple and sustainable
  • A supplement or prescription medication recommendation (such as semaglutide or tirzepatide)
  • Lifestyle tips to support sleep, movement, and stress management
  • Hormonal support if needed
  • Regular follow-up check-ins

We’ll explain everything clearly so you feel confident moving forward.

Step 4: Your Questions Answered

We want you to feel supported, not rushed. Your provider will answer any questions about medication, expectations, possible side effects, and what success might look like for you in the weeks ahead.

Step 5: Next Steps and Follow-Up

We’ll book your next visit, provide any take-home materials, and make sure you leave feeling empowered. You’ll have a clear plan and real guidance every step of the way.

Why This First Visit Matters

This isn’t just a weigh-in. It’s a full-body, whole-health approach to lasting weight loss. We focus on you as a person—not a number on the scale. Every plan starts with compassion, science, and a belief that real results come from real support.
