Telemedicine Services for Weight Loss in Houston, TX

At Clinic 45, we’re proud to offer Telemedicine services, providing a convenient and accessible way to take care of your health and wellness from the comfort of your home. Telemedicine allows us to deliver personalized care through secure video consultations, so you can discuss your weight loss goals without the need to visit our clinic in person.

What is Telemedicine?

Telemedicine is a secure, virtual healthcare solution that connects you with our providers through video or phone consultations. Before starting telemedicine services, all patients are required to come in for an initial in-person visit. During this visit, we’ll complete your lab work and perform an InBody scan—essential steps that help us fully understand your health and build a personalized weight loss plan just for you. After this initial assessment, you'll be eligible for convenient telemedicine follow-ups and ongoing support, allowing you to continue your journey from wherever you are. Whether you need guidance on weight loss treatments, appetite suppressants, or overall wellness, our virtual care brings expert support right to you.


Benefits of Telemedicine

Telemedicine eliminates the hassle of commute time, traffic, and waiting rooms, making it a seamless option for busy Texans. Many of our patients appreciate the flexibility, especially those balancing work, family, or health concerns. It also allows us to meet you wherever you are, whether you’re at home, the office, or traveling within Texas.


This service is designed to maintain the same quality of care we provide in person, while offering added convenience. With telemedicine, you can get the medical advice and support you need while saving time and effort.


Who Should Consider Telemedicine?

Telemedicine is an excellent choice for anyone seeking care for weight management or ongoing wellness support. It’s especially beneficial if you have a demanding schedule, limited mobility, or live outside central Houston. Telemedicine allows you to access our care without the need to make a physical trip to our clinic.

What Can We Address Through Telemedicine?

Through telemedicine, we can discuss a wide range of topics, including but not limited to:


  • Medical weight loss program planning, including discussions about appetite suppressants, diet help, or treatments like Semaglutide or Tirzepatide injections.
  • Follow-ups for treatments such as lipotropic injections, B12 supplements, or IV hydration therapy.
  • General consultations to ensure you’re on track with a low-carb diet, phentermine prescriptions, or other weight loss solutions.


While some treatments require in-person visits, a telemedicine consultation is often the first step in creating a personalized plan that fits your lifestyle and goals.
