Many adults in Hialeah are looking for new ways to manage their weight after years of trying different diets, exercise programs, and lifestyle changes. For some patients, physician-guided medical weight loss programs may offer additional options worth discussing with a healthcare provider.
Today, secure telehealth consultations make it possible for eligible patients to connect with licensed medical professionals from home while exploring treatments such as Mounjaro® (tirzepatide). Whether you are researching insurance coverage, self-pay options, or simply trying to understand how modern GLP-1/GIP weight loss injections work, learning about your options is an important first step.
Mounjaro® contains tirzepatide, a prescription medication that may be evaluated as part of a physician-guided medical weight loss plan. Adults in Hialeah, Florida can connect with Florida Surgery & Weight Loss Center through secure telehealth consultations with a licensed healthcare provider.
During the consultation, the provider reviews medical history, current medications, weight-related health concerns, previous weight loss attempts, and safety considerations before deciding whether tirzepatide-based treatment may be clinically appropriate. Prescriptions are not issued automatically, and eligibility cannot be self-determined.
“Successful weight loss is rarely about willpower alone. Many patients have underlying metabolic factors that make weight management more difficult. The goal of a medical evaluation is to understand the whole picture and determine whether a treatment plan may be appropriate for that individual.”
Dr. Sergey Terushkin, MD, FACS

Hialeah is a busy community where many adults balance work, family, long commutes, and daily responsibilities. For patients who have delayed weight loss care because of time, transportation, or scheduling concerns, telehealth can make the first step more realistic.
Instead of waiting for the “perfect time” to begin, patients can speak with a licensed provider from home, review treatment options, ask questions about insurance or self-pay pricing, and decide whether medical weight loss care may fit their needs.
“The best weight loss program is one that a patient can realistically follow long term. Our role is to help patients understand their options, identify potential barriers, and create a plan that fits their individual needs.”
Dr. Sergey Terushkin, MD, FACS
Mounjaro® is a brand-name prescription medication that contains tirzepatide. It is administered as a once-weekly injection and is prescribed only after evaluation by a licensed healthcare provider. Mounjaro® is not available in pill form and is not appropriate for every patient.
Tirzepatide is reviewed during medical weight loss consultations because it affects pathways related to blood sugar regulation, appetite, and fullness. For weight management, a provider must decide whether treatment is appropriate based on each patient’s health profile, treatment goals, and safety considerations.
Patients who want to better understand dosing language, syringe units, and injection volume can review the Tirzepatide & Semaglutide Units Calculator. This educational tool does not replace medical advice, but it can help patients better understand common terms used during treatment discussions.
Important Note:
Mounjaro® is FDA-approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Licensed healthcare providers may also prescribe Mounjaro® off-label for weight loss when medically appropriate, based on individual clinical evaluation.
Eligibility for Mounjaro® or tirzepatide-based treatment is determined by a licensed healthcare provider during a medical consultation. Factors may include body mass index, weight-related health conditions, medical history, current medications, and whether injectable therapy can be used safely.
Not every patient is a candidate. Prescriptions are not issued by request, and treatment decisions are made by the evaluating provider based on clinical judgment and patient safety.
For patients unsure where to begin, the Weight Loss Quiz can help organize goals and provide a starting point before scheduling a consultation.
