The Clinic at Sharp Coronado

Our weight management program provides access to prescription FDA-approved medications, also known as GLP-1 or GIP medications, under the care of a doctor board certified in obesity medicine.

For some people, combining healthy lifestyle changes with injectable, FDA-approved medications can accelerate weight loss. Also known as GLP-1 or GIP medications, these drugs can help reduce food cravings and make people feel full faster and longer.

Most weight loss medications are recommended for people with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher for people with diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure or another obesity-related health condition.

At Sharp Coronado Hospital, a doctor who is board certified in obesity medicine, can determine if this treatment is right for you. Your health will be closely monitored, and we will help you manage any side effects throughout your care.

Our team can help determine if your health insurance covers weight loss medications.

GLP-1s are available through the Sharp Specialty Pharmacy, a state-licensed and nationally-accredited pharmacy, ensuring that your medications meet the highest standards of safety and effectiveness.
