Precision Weight Management
What Are GLP-1 Medications?
GLP-1 medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide work by mimicking a naturally occurring hormone that helps regulate your metabolic function. These medications may help patients feel fuller longer, reduce cravings, and support metabolic balance - making weight loss more achievable without extreme dieting.
At Ascent Wellness, our physician-guided GLP-1 weight management program uses medications that work through multiple physiological pathways involved in appetite regulation, glucose metabolism, and weight management.
Appetite Suppression
Some patients may experience changes in appetite and feelings of fullness.
Slower Gastric Emptying
Food stays in your stomach longer, prolonging fullness and reducing spikes in blood sugar.
Glucose Regulation
Healthy glucose regulation plays an important role in normal energy metabolism.
Reduced Reward-Driven Eating
Many patients report a welcome decrease in emotional or stress-related eating.
Steady Weight Loss
Most patients experience gradual, natural-feeling changes over weeks to months.

Semaglutide & Tirzepatide
GLP Treatment FAQs
What are Semaglutide and Tirzepatide?
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are prescription medications used to support chronic weight management when clinically appropriate. Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, while Tirzepatide is a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist. During your consultation, our providers determine which option best aligns with your health history, goals, and laboratory findings.
Do I qualify for Semaglutide or Tirzepatide?
Eligibility is determined through a physician evaluation, medical history review, and, when appropriate, laboratory testing. Our goal is to recommend clinically appropriate treatment based on your individual health profile rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach..
How do I know which medication is right for me?
Both medications can be effective, but the best choice depends on factors such as your weight loss goals, medical history, previous treatment response, and metabolic health. Your Ascent Wellness provider will discuss the benefits of each option and recommend the one that best fits your needs.
How quickly will I lose weight?
Results vary from person to person. Many patients begin noticing changes within the first several weeks, with more significant progress developing over several months when treatment is combined with nutrition, activity, and ongoing medical guidance.
Will I need bloodwork before treatment?
We often recommend comprehensive laboratory testing to evaluate metabolic health, identify underlying conditions, and establish a baseline before beginning treatment. This helps us personalize your care and safely monitor your progress over time.
What's included in the GLP blood panel?
The GLP blood panel includes 40+ biomarkers: Thyroid Panel, Lipid Panel, Hemoglobin A1c, Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, and CBC with Differential.
How does Ascent Wellness help manage side effects?
Unlike programs that simply prescribe medication, our providers provide ongoing monitoring, personalized dosing adjustments, concierge support, and clinical recommendations to help minimize common side effects while keeping your treatment on track.
Can GLP treatment be combined with peptides?
Supportive peptide strategies may be reviewed for added synergy and broader wellness benefits when medically appropriate and physician-guided.
Does Ascent Wellness track body composition?
Yes. We use advanced body composition analysis to monitor changes in fat mass, lean muscle, and overall progress. This provides a more meaningful picture of your results than relying on the number on the scale alone.
Where is Ascent Wellness located?
Ascent Wellness is located in Syosset, New York, serving patients throughout Long Island and the greater New York area with both in-person and telehealth services where appropriate.
Can I use HSA or FSA funds?
Many patients are able to use HSA or FSA funds for eligible medical services and prescribed treatments. Coverage varies by plan, so we recommend checking with your HSA/FSA administrator before your appointment.
