Medical Weight Loss

Medical Weight Loss in Colorado Springs & Lone Tree

You've done the diets. The 5 a.m. workouts, the calorie counting, the six weeks of cutting carbs, and the scale barely moved, or it moved and came right back the second you relaxed. That's not a willpower problem. Somewhere in your 30s or 40s, your hormones shift, your insulin sensitivity drops, and your metabolism starts working against you instead of with you. Elevation Hydration's Medical Weight Loss program is directed by Dr. Jeremy Ellias and delivered in person at our Colorado Springs and Lone Tree locations, and it starts with your bloodwork, not a one-size-fits-all plan.

Why the Scale Stops Cooperating

Insulin resistance, thyroid changes, declining testosterone or estrogen, and chronic stress all slow your metabolism in ways diet and exercise alone can't fix. GLP-1 medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide work by targeting the hunger and blood sugar signals your body has stopped regulating well on its own. Used without medical oversight, they're a shortcut. Used with lab-guided dosing and real follow-up, they're a tool that gets your biology working with you again.

What's Included in Your Program

  • An initial consult and full metabolic panel, including A1C, thyroid, lipids, and relevant hormone markers
  • Physician-directed GLP-1 prescribing (semaglutide or tirzepatide), dosed and adjusted based on your labs and how you respond
  • Monthly in-person check-ins to track weight, body composition, and manage any side effects
  • Protein intake and strength-training guidance so you lose fat, not muscle

How the Program Works

Step one is your consult and labs, where our team gets a full picture of your metabolic health. Step two is your custom plan, built by Dr. Ellias around what your bloodwork actually shows. Step three is ongoing care: monthly visits, dose adjustments, and a team that answers the phone when you have a question at week three instead of leaving you to figure it out from a mobile app.

Who This Is For

  • Anyone who has plateaued despite genuinely putting in the effort
  • Anyone with a family history of diabetes, heart disease, or metabolic syndrome
  • Anyone who wants medical oversight and real bloodwork behind their prescription, not an online form and a warehouse shipment

Physician-Directed Care, Not a Subscription App

Every plan is directed by Dr. Jeremy Ellias and delivered by our team of RNs, paramedics, and EMTs, in person, at either of our Colorado locations. You'll see the same clinic and the same team every visit. No call centers, no rotating prescribers you've never met.

Medical Weight Loss in Colorado Springs

Our Colorado Springs clinic sits at 4337 North Academy Blvd, easy to reach from

Powers, Briargate, and the Academy corridor. If you've spent years fighting the scale while living an active Colorado Springs life, hiking Cheyenne Mountain on weekends but still not seeing results, this program was built for exactly that gap between effort and outcome.

Medical Weight Loss in Lone Tree

Our Lone Tree location at 9068 Forsstrom Dr serves Douglas County and the south Denver metro, including Highlands Ranch, Parker, and Castle Rock. If you've tried the national telehealth weight loss brands and want an actual physician's office instead of a subscription you renew every month without ever meeting your prescriber, come see us.
