Metabolic Health &
Weight Loss
All health is whole-person health.
The Hunter Clinics Approach
Our metabolic health program includes comprehensive metabolic assessment, lab monitoring, and access to scientifically proven weight management medications like GLP-1 receptor agonists and naltrexone/bupropion where clinically appropriate. Prescribed and monitored by providers who understand how these treatments interact with your broader psychiatric care, this is precision medical management, delivered with the same rigor as every other offering at Hunter Clinics.
The Importance of Metabolic Health
Mood, sleep, energy, and body composition are tightly interconnected, and certain psychiatric medications may themselves affect metabolic health. At Hunter Clinics, metabolic health isn't treated as a separate concern bolted onto psychiatric care, but as part of the same whole-person model. Our goal is patients who are healthier in ways we can measure and they can feel.
Integrated with Your Psychiatric Care
Because your prescriber already understands your full clinical picture, decisions about metabolic treatment are made with your psychiatric medications, history, and goals already in view. This reduces the risk of conflicting recommendations and treatment interactions and maximizes the odds of success.
What to Expect
• A comprehensive metabolic and lab-based assessment
• A personalized plan that may include lifestyle, medical, or pharmacological intervention
• Physician oversight that accounts for your full psychiatric and medical history
• Outcomes tracked over time using objective health measures
