Your GLP-1 Questions, Answered

What is the difference between Tirzepatide and Semaglutide?

First, Tirzepatide and Semaglutide work differently. Tirzepatide targets two pathways (GLP-1/GIP). Because of this, it often leads to faster weight loss. On the other hand, Semaglutide targets one pathway (GLP-1). Still, it is very good at reducing hunger and creating steady results. Ultimately, our medical team looks at your lab work to pick the best choice for you.

What does physician-led GLP-1 treatment mean?

Simply put, it means licensed medical providers closely guide your care. For instance, your plan includes complete lab tests and custom dosing. In addition, we actively manage any side effects. Therefore, you get true physician-led medical weight loss, rather than a basic online subscription.

Do I need lab work before starting GLP-1 therapy?

Yes, absolutely. Complete lab work is required for everyone. Specifically, safe prescribing depends on knowing your metabolism and hormone levels before you start. As a result, we can treat your whole body safely, from medical weight loss to overall skin health.

Where are your GLP-1 clinics located?

Currently, The Maxim Clinic operates two GLP-1 weight loss clinics in the Atlanta area. You can easily visit us in either Marietta (3939 Roswell Rd) or Norcross (5880 Live Oak Pkwy). Furthermore, both locations offer the exact same high-quality, doctor-led programs.
