Weight loss
Medical Weight Loss Management in Ridgeland, MS
Clinician-guided consultations combining personalized nutrition strategies with modern medication management when it is appropriate for you.
Who this may be appropriate for
Adults who want structured, clinician-guided support for sustainable health goals may be appropriate for a weight-loss consultation. Because weight, sleep, mood, and medication side effects often interact, this service is frequently used alongside psychiatric care. Eligibility for any particular treatment is decided only after a clinical evaluation.
What the process involves
- An initial consultation reviewing health history, goals, and current medications.
- Personalized nutrition strategies.
- Medication management when it is clinically appropriate.
- Follow-up visits to review progress and adjust the plan.
An honest expectation
We do not promise a specific amount of weight loss, a timeline, or access to any particular medication. What we offer is consistent, clinician-guided follow-up and a plan that is revisited as your circumstances change. Related care includes hormone replacement therapy and psychiatric medication management.
Your provider and where we see you
Care is led by Stephen P. Sweeney, PMHNP-BC, a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, alongside the wider Turned Leaf Psychiatry team and our collaborating physicians in Mississippi and Tennessee. Visits are in person at our Ridgeland office.
