This week we discuss the integration of medications and GLP-1s (like Ozempic) into weight management.

Dr Kaplan explains the ethical considerations of prescribing weight loss medications, the additional unexpected benefits of these medications for patients, the role of compounding pharmacies, and the evolution of virtual care in healthcare. Dr. Kaplan emphasizes the importance of patient experience, medication tolerability, and the future of weight loss treatments, including innovative medications on the horizon.

Dr. Jonathan Kaplan is a board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Dr. Well by BuildMyHealth. Hosted by Dr. Jordan Vollrath, a family physician and mental health counsellor.
