Metabolic Health Clinic
Focused, ongoing care for excess weight, obesity and related metabolic conditions, including weight gain related to psychiatric medications. These visits are separate from psychiatric care and are dedicated entirely to metabolic health.
A dedicated clinic for weight and metabolic health.
The Metabolic Health Clinic at Premier Psychiatry provides focused, ongoing care for patients dealing with excess weight, obesity and related metabolic conditions.
We created the clinic because weight gain and other metabolic problems are much more common in people living with mental health conditions, including weight gain from some psychiatric medications, and they deserve proactive, dedicated attention.
These visits are separate from psychiatric care and are dedicated entirely to metabolic health.
This Clinic May Be Right for You If…
- You have gained weight related to psychiatric medications
- You are living with obesity or excess weight and have had difficulty losing it
- You are looking for structured, medically supervised weight management support
- You would like to learn whether a medication such as a GLP-1 receptor agonist may be appropriate for you

Initial Evaluation
Your first appointment is a focused, in-person evaluation. Your provider reviews your weight history, past weight loss efforts, related medical conditions and goals, then develops an individualized plan with you.
Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on your evaluation, you receive a structured plan that may include medication, nutrition guidance and activity recommendations suited to your situation.
Regular Follow-Up
Ongoing visits let your provider monitor your progress, adjust medications as needed and refine your plan over time. Consistent follow-up is an important part of the program.
Scope of These Visits
Metabolic Health Clinic appointments focus only on weight management and metabolic health. They do not replace your regular psychiatric care. Please continue routine follow-up with your psychiatric provider as scheduled. Psychiatric conditions are not evaluated or managed during these visits.
