If your metabolism feels “stuck” despite eating well and staying active, there may be deeper physiological factors at play. Metabolic optimization combines lifestyle strategies with evidence-based medical therapies, including GLP medications and peptide therapy, to support energy improvement and optimize how your body regulates weight loss, energy, and blood sugar. At this time, metabolic management services are available exclusively to patients located in New York State.
Metabolic optimization is a comprehensive, medically-guided approach to enhancing your body's functions, including energy improvement, appetite regulation, and satiety. This method effectively manages blood sugar and insulin response while utilizing peptide therapy to improve how your body produces and uses energy. Additionally, it focuses on how your body stores and burns fat, and it plays a crucial role in responding to hormones and inflammation, making it a valuable strategy for weight loss, especially when paired with GLP medications.
By addressing both biological and lifestyle factors, we create personalized plans that support real, sustainable change, leading to effective weight loss. Depending on your individual needs and medical history, metabolic optimization may include GLP medications and peptide therapy. GLP medications work by regulating appetite and hunger signals, improving blood sugar control, supporting insulin sensitivity, and reducing cravings and food noise, all of which contribute to energy improvement. These medications are prescribed only when clinically appropriate and are closely monitored. Peptide therapy may further enhance your journey by supporting metabolic repair and optimization through improved fat metabolism, maintaining lean muscle mass, enhancing energy and recovery, and assisting with inflammation regulation. All peptide protocols are individualized and medically guided.
Metabolic optimization may be the solution for you if you struggle with weight loss despite consistent effort, experience persistent fatigue or low energy, have insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, or metabolic dysfunction, are navigating metabolic changes related to menopause, and prefer medically-guided support instead of guesswork.

A 30 minute visit focused on your full history, symptoms, goals, and risk profile. We discuss peptide therapy as well as GLP medications and their potential for weight loss and energy improvement, exploring options for Metabolic Optimization.
A 15-minute appointment will be scheduled to monitor your progress with peptide therapy and adjust the peptide dose as needed for optimal energy improvement and weight loss results. Follow-up appointments will be necessary every 8-12 weeks while on GLP medications.
"For the first time in my healthcare journey, I truly felt heard. Meeting with Sam was transformative. She listened, not just to symptoms, but to me. She took her time and sought not only to treat me as a whole patient, but also to educate me about my care. Through her insights on peptide therapy and GLP medications, I gained a deeper understanding of my treatment options. She helped me grasp what my body was experiencing, which felt empowering, especially as I worked towards energy improvement and weight loss. It was evident her goal matched mine: to help me become a better, healthier version of myself." Monica B.
"Sam helped me achieve a 20-pound weight loss after years of struggling with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and feeling stuck. Her guidance didn’t just change my body; it also enhanced my energy improvement and overall mental wellness. With the help of GLP medications and peptide therapy, I feel more confident, energized, and in control of my life. I’m so grateful for the support and results." ~ Brittany H.
