Medical Weight Loss · Summerlin, Las Vegas NV
Medical Weight Loss Near Me — Summerlin & Las Vegas
If you searched medical weight loss near me, Body Balance Medical is an in-person clinic in Summerlin — at 7975 W Sahara Ave #101, Las Vegas, NV 89117, minutes from the 215 Beltway.
Your treatment here is supervised by credentialed nurse practitioners on-site, not a telehealth app, a call center, or a mail-only prescription program. And because medical weight loss depends on actually showing up for follow-ups, being close matters more than it sounds. Most of our patients come from neighborhoods where we're a short drive — a lunch break, or a stop on the way home.
Where We Are, and How Far You'd Be Driving
We're on West Sahara Avenue in Summerlin, just east of the 215. Below is honest drive context rather than a list of every zip code in Clark County — because a weight loss program only works if the follow-up visits actually happen.
Our clinic is in Summerlin. If you live in The Ridges, Redpoint, The Vistas, or anywhere along the western edge, you're a few minutes out.
Straight down Sahara. Among the shortest drives to us in the valley.
East on Sahara. Easy to fit into a lunch break without rushing.
South on the 215, exit Sahara. Straightforward outside of rush hour.
Sahara runs straight across the valley. No freeway required if you'd rather avoid it.
We see Henderson patients, and we'll be straight with you: it's a real drive across the valley. It tends to work best if you already commute to this side for work. If you don't, factor the follow-up visits into your decision honestly.

Why an In-Person Clinic Beats a Weight Loss App
Medical weight loss programs use individualized, provider-driven protocols — not one-size-fits-all diets. At Body Balance Medical your treatment is built around your health history, body composition data, appetite patterns, and goals. For the full clinical picture — candidacy criteria, dosing timelines, side effects, and what results actually look like — see our medical weight loss program page.
Real Local Care
A physical Summerlin clinic where your providers see you in person, adjust dosing over time, and manage treatment as your body responds.
Named, Credentialed Providers
You're treated by Mia LoPreiato, NP and Teresa Hernandez, MSN FNP-BC on-site — not processed through an anonymous call center or a rotating telehealth roster.
InBody Composition Scanning
We track more than body weight. InBody scanning gives you a baseline of lean mass, fat mass, and metabolic markers so progress is measurable from day one.
LegitScript Certified
Our certification means transparent, compliant naming of our GLP-1 medications — something most weight loss clinics in Las Vegas are not authorized to do.
Hormone Optimization Support
Weight gain is often tied to hormonal factors. When appropriate we can combine medical weight loss with hormone optimization — no separate referral needed.
No Hidden Fees
Compounded Semaglutide is priced at a flat $299/month, all-inclusive. Provider oversight, titration schedule, and check-ins are included.
More Than a Prescription
The difference between a telehealth weight loss app and an in-person clinic is the relationship. Your providers see you face-to-face, review your InBody data over time, and adjust your program as your body changes — clinical continuity that remote programs don't replicate.
Our Summerlin location also lets patients address weight loss and hormone health together when both are relevant. For many people the two are connected, and managing them under one roof leads to more complete results.
The Two Programs We Offer
Body Balance Medical offers two provider-supervised GLP-1 programs for appropriate candidates, both prescribed on-site by our nurse practitioners and sourced through licensed compounding pharmacies.
Compounded Semaglutide
A GLP-1 receptor agonist that slows digestion, reduces appetite, and supports weight loss over time. Flat pricing, no tiers, no hidden fees — provider oversight, titration schedule, and check-ins included.
Compounded Tirzepatide
A dual GIP/GLP-1 agonist targeting two hormone pathways at once, extending satiety and reducing appetite more aggressively than semaglutide for many patients.
with tirzepatide over 72 weeks
with semaglutide over 72 weeks
Those are trial averages under study conditions, not a prediction of your result. Which medication fits you depends on your health history, candidacy, and tolerance — that's what your Medical Weight Loss Candidacy Evaluation determines. Compare both in our Compounded Semaglutide vs. Compounded Tirzepatide guide, or see the full program page for candidacy criteria and side effects.
Your Providers in Summerlin
Every treatment plan is supervised by real, credentialed providers at our Summerlin location — not a remote physician reviewing a submitted form.
Mia LoPreiato, NP
Biote-Certified Hormone & Longevity SpecialistMia is the primary weight loss provider at Body Balance Medical. She supervises individualized treatment plans that may include Compounded Semaglutide or Compounded Tirzepatide, InBody scanning, hormone optimization, and ongoing progress review. Her Biote certification means weight and hormone concerns can be addressed together when clinically appropriate.
Teresa Hernandez, MSN FNP-BC
Biote-Certified Family Nurse PractitionerTeresa brings clinical expertise in wellness, hormone optimization, and patient-centered care. She sees weight loss patients at Body Balance Medical and is Biote-certified, bringing the same integrated approach to patients whose weight and wellness goals overlap with hormone health.
What Your First Visit Actually Looks Like
Medical Weight Loss Candidacy Evaluation
Your first step is an in-person evaluation at our Summerlin clinic. Your provider reviews your health history, goals, body mass index, appetite patterns, prior weight loss attempts, and any relevant health conditions. Your baseline may also include an InBody body composition scan. No labs are required for initial enrollment — providers may recommend them later based on your history.
Tailored Treatment Plan
Based on your evaluation, your provider builds a plan around your health needs, lifestyle, goals, and starting dose. That may include Compounded Semaglutide or Compounded Tirzepatide, a titration schedule, nutritional guidance, and hormone optimization if appropriate. No two plans are identical because no two patients have the same health history.
Ongoing Supervision, In Person
Routine check-ins are built into your program. Your providers monitor results, body composition changes, medication tolerance, and appetite response over time. If side effects come up — especially in the first few weeks — your team manages them and adjusts your protocol. This is where being nearby pays off: it's not a mail-it-and-forget-it program.
Is This Worth the Drive for You?
The best candidates are adults who want provider oversight and prescription access to GLP-1 medications — especially if traditional approaches haven't led to lasting results.
- Have struggled with diet and exercise alone
- Want in-person care rather than a telehealth-only program
- Have weight gain tied to appetite, hormones, or insulin resistance
- Are committed to lifestyle changes alongside medication
- Want weight and hormone health addressed under one roof
- Can realistically make it here for follow-up visits
Full candidacy criteria, including BMI thresholds and contraindications, are on the main program page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where exactly are you located?
7975 W Sahara Ave #101, Las Vegas, NV 89117 — in Summerlin, just east of the 215 Beltway on Sahara. There's parking on site, and we're on the ground floor. Hours are Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM.
Do you serve Henderson?
Yes, and we'll be honest about the distance: Henderson to Summerlin runs roughly 25 to 30 minutes depending on traffic. That works well if you already commute to this side of the valley, less well if you don't. Medical weight loss involves regular follow-up visits, so factor the drive into your decision rather than around it.
Where can I get semaglutide injections in Las Vegas?
Body Balance Medical prescribes Compounded Semaglutide at $299/month, supervised by our on-site nurse practitioners in Summerlin. If you want in-person, provider-supervised GLP-1 treatment rather than a mail-order program, apply for a Medical Weight Loss Candidacy Evaluation to find out whether you're a candidate.
Are compounded GLP-1 medications legal in Nevada?
Yes. Compounded GLP-1 medications are legally prescribed in Nevada when prescribed by a licensed provider and sourced through a licensed compounding pharmacy. Body Balance Medical's LegitScript certification supports transparent, compliant naming of Compounded Semaglutide and Compounded Tirzepatide — something most clinics in Las Vegas are not authorized to do clearly.
How is this different from telehealth weight loss services?
Body Balance Medical is an in-person clinic in Summerlin. You're evaluated and supervised by named, credentialed nurse practitioners on-site — not processed through a call center. You also get InBody body composition scanning, in-person dose adjustments, side effect management, and hormone optimization when appropriate.
How much do weight loss injections cost in Las Vegas?
At Body Balance Medical, Compounded Semaglutide is $299/month, all-inclusive — no hidden fees, no tiered pricing. Compounded Tirzepatide pricing is based on your starting dose and reviewed during your Medical Weight Loss Candidacy Evaluation. Both include provider oversight, dose titration, and ongoing support.
Do I need to see a provider in person to start?
Yes. These are prescription medications and require a clinical evaluation and an active prescription from a licensed provider. Your program is prescribed and supervised by Mia LoPreiato, NP or Teresa Hernandez, MSN FNP-BC at our Summerlin location. We do not mail medications without an established provider relationship.
Do you require lab work before starting?
No labs are required for initial enrollment. Your provider may recommend labs based on your health history, current medications, blood sugar concerns, or hormone factors — but you don't need results in hand to apply for your evaluation.
How soon can I be seen?
New patient evaluations are typically available within one to two weeks. Complete your intake forms beforehand to make the most of your visit, and bring any prior lab results and a current medication list.
