Most weight loss programs reduce the process to a formula: eat less, move more. But this model fails for a large number of patients—particularly those with underlying metabolic dysfunction, hormonal imbalances, or chronic inflammation. At The Pur Health in Irvine, weight loss is approached through a clinical lens. Each treatment plan is individualized, medically supervised, and rooted in diagnostic data.

The assumption that weight loss is simply about willpower and caloric restriction is outdated. Many patients have already restricted calories, increased physical activity, and followed popular diet trends—only to experience minimal or temporary results. The common missing variable is physiology. If insulin resistance, thyroid dysfunction, or cortisol imbalance are present, standard diet strategies often fail. Without identifying and correcting these root causes, fat loss becomes inefficient or unsustainable.

Each weight loss plan begins with a detailed clinical consultation and functional lab testing. We evaluate markers such as:

• Fasting insulin
• Thyroid hormones (TSH, Free T3, Reverse T3)
• Cortisol and DHEA
• Inflammatory markers
• Sex hormones (testosterone, estrogen, progesterone)
• Nutrient levels (Vitamin D, B12, iron, folate)

This information guides the development of a plan that addresses the metabolic drivers of weight gain rather than focusing only on external behaviors.

Semaglutide and GLP-1 Therapy

GLP-1 receptor agonists such as Semaglutide and Tirzepatide have demonstrated substantial clinical benefit in patients with obesity, prediabetes, and metabolic syndrome. These medications work by improving insulin sensitivity, slowing gastric emptying, and reducing appetite. They are administered weekly and monitored closely for efficacy and side effects.

Only pharmacy-grade, branded formulations are used. Compounded versions are avoided due to quality control concerns and variability in patient response.

Fat-Burning Injections (Lipo-B, B12)

Lipotropic injections provide metabolic support by delivering nutrients that aid in liver detoxification and fat metabolism. Methylated B12, L-carnitine, inositol, choline, and methionine are included depending on clinical need. These injections are not weight loss medications; they are metabolic adjuncts used selectively in patients with fatigue or nutrient deficiency.

Phentermine and Combination Therapies

Short-term use of appetite suppressants like Phentermine may be appropriate for some patients when monitored by a physician. In cases requiring additional support, combination treatments such as Qsymia (Phentermine + Topiramate) or Contrave (Bupropion + Naltrexone) are considered based on cardiovascular risk, psychological profile, and metabolic history.

Functional and Hormonal Correction

Patients with weight loss resistance often have concurrent conditions such as estrogen dominance, testosterone deficiency, or subclinical hypothyroidism. These imbalances are identified through lab analysis and corrected through hormone modulation, thyroid support, or targeted supplementation.

Clinic-Based Services for Long-Term Metabolic Support

Beyond weight loss, long-term metabolic health is emphasized. Patients receive:

• Body composition analysis
• Protein intake planning
• Nutrient repletion via oral or IV routes
• Post-weight-loss maintenance protocols

Affordable Monthly Membership

We offer affordable monthly membership for weight loss program. It is a fee for service option for the pateinets to get access to weight loss medication and get medical visit and check-up with Dr. Munib to make sure that you stay on your weight loss program and be successful.

Our patients come from throughout Irvine and the greater Orange County area. The majority are working professionals, adults navigating hormonal shifts, or individuals who have failed multiple weight loss programs elsewhere. The clinical setting provides privacy, continuity of care, and direct physician access.

Common Patient Profiles:

• Women in perimenopause or post-pregnancy
• Men with central obesity and fatigue
• Individuals with PCOS, insulin resistance, or chronic dieting history
• Adults concerned about GLP-1 safety and looking for medical supervision

Unlike commercial weight loss clinics or hospital systems with generalized protocols, The Pur Health offers physician-directed care with a personalized approach. Patients are not placed into templated programs. They are evaluated, monitored, and treated based on laboratory data and direct clinical observation.

A 44-year-old woman presented with a five-year history of weight retention following her second pregnancy. Labs revealed insulin resistance, low free T3, and elevated cortisol. She was started on Semaglutide, a modified nutrition plan, and Lipo-B injections. At 4 months, she had lost 22 lbs of fat with preservation of lean mass. Symptoms of fatigue and brain fog also improved.

A 53-year-old male executive with a BMI of 32 and persistent abdominal fat was evaluated for metabolic dysfunction. Labs showed low testosterone and elevated fasting insulin. Treatment included Tirzepatide, testosterone replacement, and B12 support. Weight reduction was gradual but sustained, with significant improvement in visceral fat and morning energy.

The Pur Health model succeeds where others fail because it treats the source—not the symptom. Each therapy is used intentionally, with the patient’s biochemical profile driving every decision. Lab monitoring is ongoing. Adjustments are made regularly. There is no generic pathway.

We do not rely on marketing scripts, pre-set dosages, or bulk-dispensed compounds. Patients are seen, evaluated, and treated by a physician with a clinical background—not by assistants or sales personnel.

Patients interested in medical weight loss at The Pur Health can schedule an in-depth consultation. This appointment includes history, intake, lab orders, and discussion of available treatment options.
