So far so amazing. In 7 weeks I lost 20pounds, my goal is to only lose 76 pounds so things are moving along perfectly. The service is the best, from the receptionist to the doctors. They go through each option with you to see which would be the best fit for you. I'm so grateful I discovered Rivas

FAQ

Other weight loss places may make promises and guarantees, but instead of gimmicks we prefer to let the results speak for themselves. Results are dependent on individuals, so come and find out what you can achieve.

From what our patients share, results can start early—some notice a 5-pound drop after the very first injection. Others say they don’t see much movement until 6–8 weeks into treatment. Everyone’s journey is different. By starting low and increasing the dose gradually, we aim to keep side effects minimal and progress sustainable.

Semaglutide weight loss injections are a particularly good fit for you if you are looking for a long-term solution, you have taken phentermine or another stimulant medication (like ADHD meds) before, and/or you need to lose more than 10-15 lbs.

You cannot be treated with a semaglutide injection prescription if you have:

Medullary Thyroid cancer
Multiple endocrine neoplasia
Type 1 Diabetics
Type 2 diabetics already taking a GLP-1 medication
History of pancreatitis
Chronic kidney disease (unless cleared by nephrologist)
Nursing, Pregnant, or trying to get pregnant

During your weekly visit, you’ll meet with our staff to monitor your progress, address any challenges, and adjust your treatment plan as needed. This may include checking vital signs, administering weight loss injections and/or vitamin injections, and providing personalized support to help you stay on track with your goals.

We highly encourage weekly visits to maximize accountability and ensure the best results. However, we understand that weekly visits may not be feasible for everyone. For your convenience, we can send you home with medication, and we also offer telehealth services for those who live farther away or have time constraints.

Our patients often mention brief moments of nausea, changes in digestion like constipation or diarrhea, and feeling more tired than usual. Many have also noticed a reduced desire for alcohol.
Our team works with you to manage these symptoms and provide a positive experience throughout your treatment.

Yes, unlike vaccines or many other shots you may think of, this injection is done with a tiny needle that only goes under the skin, not into muscle. Patients often don’t realize we already gave the semaglutide shot.

We do not process any insurance. Unfortunately, most insurance companies refuse to cover medical weight loss, but we are happy to provide invoices for reimbursement if your insurance does. Some patients are able to get reimbursed for the visit.

We offer telehealth services for patients residing in Maryland, Virginia and Florida who are interested in treatment with semaglutide or tirzepatide. Here’s how it works:

Monthly Video Appointments:
You will have a monthly video appointment with one of our medical providers. During these appointments, your provider will monitor your progress, address any concerns, and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

Convenient Medication Delivery:
Once your treatment plan is established, the telemedicine weight loss prescription will be shipped directly to your home. This ensures you have easy and timely access to your medication without needing to visit the clinic.

Telehealth allows you to receive high-quality care from the comfort of your home, making it easier to stay on track with your treatment and health goals.

Home Injection Instructions

Patients meet with a provider weekly to receive their injection. If you are traveling or at a maintenance dose, you have the option to take injections home and do it yourself. Below are instructions for injecting the medication at home.
