Frequently Asked Questions

At Higher Med, we specialize in providing comprehensive services for weight loss, hormone optimization, and health optimization. We begin your patient journey with a thorough workup and create an individualized treatment plan to help you achieve your wellness goals and feel better than ever!

Our framework is holistic and evidence-based. Your treatment plan will be tailored to your unique health profile, and designed to address the root causes of weight gain, fatigue, and hormonal imbalances. We combine in-depth biomarker analysis, personalized consultations, and continuous support to create sustainable, long-term results. We provide guidance around nutrition, fitness, stress management and lifestyle modifications to support you in reaching your health goals. This sets us apart from one-size-fits-all solutions offered by traditional med spas & conventional practices. 

Results vary depending on individual goals and health status, but many patients report noticeable changes within the first few weeks, including improved energy, sleep and mood. Weight loss and metabolic improvements may take longer and are typically seen over the course of the 12-week program.

We do accept HSA/FSA and offer monthly financing.
