Your results and treatment plan will depend on your individual health, response to medication, and wellness goals.
Your Semaglutide Experience at Rio
1.
Consultation
Your first step is a one-on-one consultation to discuss your health, current challenges, previous weight-management efforts, and goals. Dr. Noto will evaluate whether semaglutide is an appropriate option for you and determine your candidacy for treatment.
2.
Begin Your Weekly Injections
If semaglutide is recommended, you will begin your weekly injections according to your personalized treatment plan.
Your response will be monitored as treatment progresses. If your dosage or plan needs to be adjusted based on how you are feeling or your progress, those changes can be made along the way.
3.
Continue Monitoring & Build Sustainable Habits
Medication is only one part of your experience. As you progress, the Rio team will continue tracking your results and supporting the habits that can help you maintain your progress over time.
You will have ongoing guidance as you work toward healthier routines, improved metabolic wellness, and a more sustainable relationship with nutrition and your overall health.
Semaglutide With Physician Oversight
Your semaglutide experience is about more than receiving a medication. With Dr. Damon Noto and Susan Omar, FNP-C, you have a team that stays involved in your care and supports you as your needs evolve. You will not be left to figure things out on your own. Instead, you receive ongoing guidance focused on helping you feel supported and confident in the steps you are taking toward your overall wellness.
Semaglutide vs. Tirzepatide: What Is the Difference?
Semaglutide and tirzepatide are both injectable medications that can support appetite regulation and weight management, but they work somewhat differently.
Semaglutide acts on the GLP-1 receptor, while tirzepatide acts on both GIP and GLP-1 receptors. Because your health history, goals, and response to treatment are unique, one medication may be more appropriate for you than the other.
You do not need to decide which option is right for you before your appointment. Dr. Noto will evaluate your individual needs and recommend whether semaglutide, tirzepatide, or another approach makes the most sense for your care.
