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.

Florida telehealth psychiatry is available to established and new patients located in Florida at the time of the visit, subject to licensure and clinical appropriateness. An in-person evaluation at the Hollywood office may be recommended when a physical exam, vital signs, or a more complete diagnostic interview is needed.
