Body confidence that does not deny medical risk

IV drips are not a weight-loss indication. We will say no.

Wellness & Weight Management for Hollywood patients

Booking a wellness consult is booking a clinical visit.

IV weight support is not an indication we treat with drips.

How Wellness & Weight Management is structured

Safety if BMI or vitals are unsafe.

Map weight trajectory onto medication starts.

Stop dangerous 'wellness' products.

Decide: therapy, dietitian, med switch, anti-obesity med, or higher care.

Indications and differentials

Patients asking for GLP-1 who also have a psych history.

Not indicated to treat anorexia with a GLP-1.

PMDD-related intake changes.

Not indicated as cosmetic rapid loss.

What we do not do

Primary-care GLP-1 without binge-eating screen misses a diagnosis.

Bariatric programs are partners, not competitors, when BMI and comorbidity say so.

Endocrinology owns some hormone obesity; we own the psychiatric overlap.

Clinical FAQ

Can I refuse weight as a goal?

Yes. We can treat binge-eating and mood without a scale goal.

Sleep?

Apnea and insomnia are part of weight care.

Will you weigh me every visit?

Only if it is clinically useful and not harmful to your eating-disorder recovery.

Self-esteem focus only?

Not if medical risk is present.

Exercise?

Dosed. Not a punishment.

Do you offer IV weight loss?

No.

Why Hollywood presentations look the way they do

Self-esteem work without treating binge-eating disorder.

PMDD carb cravings called lack of discipline.

IV vitamin drips promised fat loss.

Monitoring and safety in Wellness & Weight Management

Informed consent for off-label metabolic uses.

GLP-1: contraindication check, follow-up GI/mood.

Suicide screen — eating disorders carry risk.

Alcohol quantification.
