Losing weight can be challenging, and there is no single approach that works for everyone.
KZ Wellness provides personalized, medically supervised weight loss care for adults throughout Connecticut through convenient telehealth appointments.
Our approach goes beyond simply prescribing medication. We combine medical evaluation, nutrition guidance, exercise recommendations, ongoing support, and access to behavioral health resources to help you build healthier habits and achieve sustainable results.
Weight management is influenced by many factors, including medical history, medications, nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress, and behavior.
That’s why your KZ Wellness program starts with an individualized medical assessment.
During your initial telehealth consultation, your provider will review your medical history, current medications, previous weight-loss efforts, lifestyle, health goals, and available medical information.
Together, we’ll develop a personalized plan designed around your health and goals.
Your weight management plan may include:
Medical evaluation and ongoing monitoring
Personalized nutrition guidance
Exercise and physical activity recommendations
Lifestyle and behavioral changes
Regular telehealth follow-up
Direct communication with your KZ Wellness care team
Access to behavioral health resources
Prescription weight-loss medication when medically appropriate
Our goal isn’t simply to help you lose weight. It’s to help you develop an approach to your health that you can maintain long term.
For some patients, prescription medication may be an appropriate part of a comprehensive weight management program.
KZ Wellness providers can evaluate whether FDA-approved weight-loss medications, including GLP-1/GIP medications such as tirzepatide, may be appropriate based on your medical history, health goals, medication history, and other clinical factors.
These medications work alongside nutrition, physical activity, and behavioral changes rather than replacing them.
When medication is prescribed, your KZ Wellness provider will help monitor your progress, assess potential side effects, adjust your treatment plan when appropriate, and provide ongoing follow-up through telehealth.
Medication is not appropriate for everyone. Your provider will discuss potential benefits, risks, alternatives, and whether prescription weight-loss treatment is appropriate for you during your consultation.

Successful weight management involves more than medication.
That’s why KZ Wellness takes a comprehensive approach to your health.
Your care begins with a medical evaluation and continues with regular follow-up to monitor your progress, address concerns, and adjust your treatment plan when appropriate.
Instead of relying on extreme or temporary diets, we help you develop realistic nutrition strategies that can become part of your everyday life.
Your care plan can include individualized recommendations for increasing physical activity and developing sustainable exercise habits based on your goals and abilities.
Eating behaviors, stress, habits, motivation, and emotional health can all influence weight management.
KZ Wellness patients also have access to behavioral health resources through our partnership with The Shoreline Therapy Center.
Getting started with KZ Wellness is simple.
Choose a convenient appointment time and begin your weight management journey from home.
Before your visit, you’ll provide information about your health history, medications, previous weight-loss efforts, lifestyle, and goals.
You may also be asked to provide recent medical records or laboratory results when appropriate.
Your initial visit takes place through telehealth.
We’ll discuss your medical history, weight management goals, nutrition, physical activity, previous treatments, and whether prescription medication may be appropriate.
Your provider will work with you to develop an individualized weight management strategy.
If medication is medically appropriate, your provider will discuss treatment options, insurance coverage, self-pay options, and the next steps for obtaining your prescription.
We will also discuss pricing – we keep our monthly follow up prices low and cost effective so that you can focus on becoming healthy!
Weight management isn’t a one-time visit.
Regular follow-up allows us to monitor your progress, discuss challenges, assess medication response and side effects when applicable, and adjust your plan as your needs change.
