Frequently Asked Questions

 

Is Wise Weight Management a medical clinic?

Wise Weight Management is a medical practice run by a double board certified obesity and family medicine physician. Dr. Allen uses her medical expertise to put together a personalized plan to manage your weight.


Can I use my insurance?

Wise Weight Management is a concierge practice that charges a monthly membership. As needed consultations and small group classes are available. If medication is prescribed, referrals are placed or blood work is ordered, you can bill your insurance. Some insurance companies provide reimbursement for services. You are able to use your Health Savings Spending Account or CareCredit healthcare credit card.


I've tried multiple programs and have been unsuccessful with keeping the weight off; how is this program any different?

We put together your program based on the person, instead of the same “diet” for everyone. Dr. Allen is passionate about weight management instead of “weight loss”. After you have reached your “best weight”, she’ll modify your plan to help you with long term success!


What medications or supplements do you prescribe to help with weight management?

We use FDA approved medications and supplements to those that are interested or would benefit from them. We base our treatments on the client, their lifestyle and medical conditions.


Are meal replacements an option?

Yes we offer meal replacements to those that are interested.
