Medical Weight Loss for Loveland Residents
Compounded semaglutide, compounded tirzepatide, and phentermine for Loveland adults seeking provider-led medical weight loss. Peak Medical Wellness sits just 15 minutes north on I-25, with the kind of personalized clinical care that's worth the short drive.
Loveland residents have easy access to Peak Medical Wellness, just 15 minutes north on Highway 287 or I-25 in Fort Collins. Whether you're commuting from the Sweetheart City for hormone therapy, compounded GLP-1 weight loss, or peptide therapy, the drive is straightforward, and many patients combine appointments with errands in Fort Collins.
Peak's providers — led by Cindy Dean, APRN, CNM, with Carolyn Bottone-Post, CNM, DNP, FACNM — see patients from Loveland regularly. Lab work, follow-up visits, and ongoing dosing adjustments happen in person at our Fort Collins clinic on Redwing Road, with most appointments running 30–45 minutes.
For Loveland residents specifically: we offer the same provider-directed, lab-first approach you'd want for serious medical wellness, without the impersonal feel of large hospital systems or chain med spas. Patients tell us the drive is worth it for care that actually feels personal.
Loveland patients at Peak Medical Wellness receive the same provider-led weight loss program as our Fort Collins patients:

GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonists mimic a hormone your gut naturally releases after eating. They reduce hunger signals in the brain, slow gastric emptying so you feel full longer, and improve insulin response. The result is appetite control that lasts hours after a meal — and meaningful, sustained weight loss for most patients in supervised programs.
Two active ingredients lead the modern GLP-1 weight loss landscape: semaglutide and tirzepatide. Tirzepatide tends to produce greater average weight loss in clinical trials; semaglutide has a longer track record. Both are once-weekly subcutaneous injections that patients self-administer at home after brief in-clinic training.
Most patients searching for GLP-1 therapy in the Loveland area have come across the brand-name medications. Here's how the active ingredients map to those brands:
Semaglutide is the active ingredient in Ozempic® (FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes) and Wegovy® (FDA-approved for chronic weight management) — both manufactured by Novo Nordisk. The two products share the same active ingredient and differ mainly in FDA indication and packaging.
Tirzepatide is the active ingredient in Mounjaro® (FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes) and Zepbound® (FDA-approved for chronic weight management) — both manufactured by Eli Lilly. Mounjaro® and Zepbound® contain the same active ingredient at the same doses.
Peak Medical Wellness prescribes compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide — prepared by licensed United States compounding pharmacies — when clinically appropriate. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved and are not the same as or interchangeable with brand-name products. Your provider will walk you through the differences, including FDA-approved options. Compounded GLP-1 therapy is not a generic substitute for Ozempic®, Wegovy®, Mounjaro®, or Zepbound®.
We do not prescribe brand-name Ozempic®, Wegovy®, Mounjaro®, or Zepbound®. Loveland patients often choose compounded GLP-1 therapy for cost and supply reasons; others prefer brand-name medications when they're available and covered by insurance. Both are reasonable paths — and the right one depends on your medical history and goals.
GLP-1 weight loss treatment is generally appropriate for adults who meet certain medical and lifestyle criteria:
Many of our patients aren't severely overweight — they've plateaued, carry metabolic risk, or have already tried diets and need a more targeted clinical approach. Your initial consultation includes a candid discussion of whether GLP-1 therapy fits your situation.
Your first visit at Peak Medical Wellness includes a complete intake, a review of your weight history and any current medications, baseline labs, and a personalized treatment plan. Plan for about 45 minutes for the initial visit.
After you're established on a protocol, follow-up visits are typically every 4 to 8 weeks during dose adjustment, then less frequently for maintenance. Many Loveland patients schedule appointments alongside other Fort Collins errands — the clinic is in southwest Fort Collins near W Drake Rd and the CSU Veterinary Hospital, with free on-site parking and easy access from both Highway 287 and I-25.
Book a consultation to discuss your goals and get a personalized weight loss plan. Most Loveland patients see us 15 minutes after pulling out of their driveway.
About 15 minutes from most of Loveland, depending on traffic and starting point. We're located at 2629 Redwing Rd, Suite 298 in southwest Fort Collins, accessible from both Highway 287 and I-25. Many Loveland patients combine appointments with errands in Fort Collins.
Initial consultations, intake labs, and in-clinic injection training happen in person at our Fort Collins clinic. Most follow-up dose adjustments can be coordinated by phone or message once you're established on a protocol, with periodic in-person visits for lab work and clinical reassessment. We design the schedule so the drive is worth it.
We prescribe compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide for GLP-1 weight loss, along with phentermine for patients who prefer or need a non-injectable option. All prescriptions are provider-directed and dosed based on your individual labs, response, and goals — not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
No. Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are prepared by licensed compounding pharmacies and are not FDA-approved. They are not the same as or interchangeable with brand-name medications. Your provider can explain the differences and whether an FDA-approved option makes more sense for you.
Many Loveland patients first come to Peak Medical Wellness for weight loss and later ask about hormones, or the other way around. Both happen at the same clinic in southwest Fort Collins, about 15 minutes up the road. Women's hormone therapy, including menopause and perimenopause care, is led by a certified nurse-midwife. Men's hormone therapy covers testosterone replacement and enclomiphene, an oral option for men who want to preserve fertility.
Every hormone visit is in person. If you decide to move forward, labs come first, from recent results from your primary care provider or drawn at your first appointment for a fee, so your provider can build a plan around your results instead of a symptom checklist, and follow-up labs are repeated after you start. Wednesday evening and Saturday morning hours make it easier to fit a visit around work, and many Loveland patients pair appointments with errands in Fort Collins.
