Minnesota’s Premier Medical Weight Loss Clinic: Physician-Led Results

Stop Dieting. Start Treating the Root Cause.

If you’ve struggled to lose weight despite diet and exercise, the issue isn’t willpower — it’s biology. At Lite Medical, we approach obesity as a metabolic condition, not a character flaw.

 

Led by Dr. Kyle Kingsley, M.D., our Minnesota clinics offer physician-led medical weight loss programs that may include GLP-1–based therapies as part of a personalized treatment plan. Care is designed around your physiology, goals, and medical history — without insurance delays or judgment.

 

Monthly weight management programs start at $149 following a clinical evaluation.

 

GLP-1 Medication Disclosure
Some medical weight loss programs at Lite Medical may include GLP-1–based therapies as part of an individualized treatment plan. When prescribed, medications may be compounded by a licensed pharmacy and are not FDA-approved. The US FDA urges caution around unapproved or compounded GLP-1 formulations that may be unsafe.

What Are GLP-1 Weight Loss Injections?

For many patients, diet and exercise fail because they cannot overcome the body’s innate hormonal resistance to weight loss. GLP-1 mechanisms may be be helpful as they work with your body’s biology, not against it.
