Experience Sound Medical Weight Loss in person.
At our practice in Kirkland, our weight loss programs look at each patient holistically and provide a comprehensive plan to help you transform completely - inside and out.
Your treatment will begin with a one-hour assessment of your current weight, weight history, medical history, general health, physical fitness, behavioral/mental factors, and health goals. Based on this information, we will discuss which medications and program can deliver your desired results. We will also perform a body composition analysis to monitor your progress throughout your journey.
At this appointment, we will order labs to compile a full metabolic profile and assess hormone levels, if appropriate. Here, we will help you select a program option and curate a lifestyle plan that is distinctly tailored to your needs. Our trained staff will review your program guide, including dietary recommendations, App access, and all of your program components.
This is where your transformation begins; you will put your plan into action, taking your prescribed medications and adjusting your lifestyle with the assuredness of enhanced health and confidence on the horizon. Throughout your treatment, you will have unlimited access to our messaging system so that we can answer any questions you may have in a timely manner.
Your first follow-up appointment will be scheduled 2-3 weeks after your start visit to assess your progress and experience. After that, you can look forward to monthly check-ins, with the option to schedule additional visits as needed.
Upon completion of your six-month program, you will be enrolled in our Ongoing Maintenance Program if you have more weight to lose and need ongoing medication management, hormone management, continued support and accountability. We will continue to support you as long as needed with monthly visits, continued access to the provider, labs, and a monthly body composition analysis.

When considering medical weight loss Kirkland patients that visit us find our program is founded on evidence-based science and the understanding of the complex interrelated factors that contribute to weight gain and difficulty losing weight.

These complex variables demand a comprehensive approach informed by what researchers and weight loss experts know. Blending a proven program methodology, medication management, nutrition and dietary counseling, mindfulness coaching, and accountability check-ins, our program offers the tools and inspiration to help you achieve and maintain your ideal weight.

Ask yourself:
If this feels like you, you’re likely a great candidate. Our team will help you find the right program and tailor everything to your unique health profile, lifestyle, and goals.

We’ll work closely with you to navigate any health concerns or contraindications so you feel confident every step of the way.
For most people, positive changes begin within weeks—think better energy, a trimmer waistline, and a renewed sense of control. Significant fat loss and body composition improvements typically unfold over the course of six months, and these results are built to last. With the right maintenance plan, you’ll stay on track with your weight loss program for the long haul without falling into the cycle of yo-yo dieting.
Your weight loss program results deserve staying power, and we’re here to help with that. Our aftercare plans are about more than maintenance—they’re about thriving in your new lifestyle. You’ll have access to ongoing support, follow-up appointments, and tools to keep your nutrition and fitness habits on point.
