Our Four Pillars of Care

1

Medical

Weight gain is often influenced by more than calories alone. Conditions such as insulin resistance, hormonal changes, metabolic disorders, diabetes, sleep apnea, and other chronic health issues can make losing weight significantly more challenging.

Our medical providers identify and treat the underlying factors affecting your health while developing a personalized treatment plan. When appropriate, this may include FDA-approved weight loss medications, including GLP-1 therapies, alongside ongoing medical monitoring and support.

2

Nutrition

Healthy eating should be practical, enjoyable, and sustainable, not restrictive.

Our Registered Dietitians work one-on-one with you to create nutrition plans that fit your lifestyle, family, schedule, and health goals. Rather than focusing on short-term diets, we help you build lifelong habits that support lasting success.

3

Fitness

Exercise should meet you where you are, not where someone else thinks you should be.

Our Exercise Specialists develop individualized activity plans based on your current fitness level, mobility, medical conditions, and personal goals. Whether you're just getting started or looking to build strength and endurance, we'll help you move safely and confidently.

4

Behavioral

Long-term success involves more than food and exercise.

Stress, emotional eating, sleep, motivation, habits, and daily life all play an important role in your health. Our Behavioral Health Therapists help you develop practical strategies to overcome obstacles, build resilience, and create lasting lifestyle changes.

Frequently Asked Questions in Lexington Park

Do I need a referral?

No. A referral isn’t required to schedule an appointment at CoreLife Lexington Park.

However, some insurance plans require one for coverage. Our team will verify your benefits before your visit, let you know if a referral is needed, and help coordinate any required paperwork so you’re ready for your appointment.

What conditions does CoreLife Lexington Park treat?

CoreLife Lexington Park provides comprehensive medical weight loss and metabolic care for adults whose weight is affecting their overall health. Many patients are referred by their primary care provider or specialists when excess weight is contributing to conditions such as sleep apnea, joint pain, high blood pressure, or other obesity-related health concerns. Others come to us directly because they’ve struggled to lose weight on their own and are looking for a medically supervised, multidisciplinary approach.

Our team includes medical providers, registered dietitians, behavioral health specialists, and fitness professionals who work together to create personalized treatment plans focused on sustainable weight loss and improved metabolic health.

Do I have to see every provider?

Not necessarily. Your journey begins with a comprehensive medical evaluation by a CoreLife clinician, who will create a personalized care plan based on your health history, medical needs, and goals. Throughout your program, your clinician will continue to monitor your progress and evaluate improvements in your overall health using medical assessments and clinical measures, adjusting your treatment plan as needed. Depending on your individual needs, your care plan may also include support from registered dietitians, behavioral health providers, and fitness specialists, ensuring you receive the right combination of services to support long-term success.

Is nutrition counseling included?

Registered Dietitians are a core part of our multidisciplinary care model and work closely with the rest of your care team.

Does CoreLife Lexington Park prescribe GLP-1 medications?

Yes. At CoreLife Lexington Park, our medical providers evaluate whether GLP-1 medications or other FDA-approved anti-obesity medications are appropriate based on your medical history, health conditions, and weight loss goals.

Medication is never a one-size-fits-all solution – it is considered as part of a personalized treatment plan focused on achieving sustainable weight loss and improving long-term metabolic health.

Your clinician will discuss the benefits, risks, and available treatment options to determine the approach that’s right for you.

What makes CoreLife different?

CoreLife Lexington Park offers more than a traditional weight loss program—we provide coordinated medical, nutrition, behavioral health, and fitness care under one roof. Instead of navigating multiple providers on your own, your care team works together to address the medical, nutritional, behavioral, and lifestyle factors that influence weight and metabolic health. As your needs evolve, you have access to the right expertise at the right time, all within one connected program.
