Medically Supervised GLP-1 Weight Loss in Brentwood, CA
GLP-1 medications like semaglutide have changed what’s possible for weight loss. But they’re prescription medications, and they work best (and safest) with real medical oversight. At DNJ, your program is screened, dosed, and monitored by a registered nurse with nearly twenty years in medicine. Not a website. Not a subscription box.

Let’s be direct: this isn’t for everyone.
GLP-1 therapy is a good fit for adults who have real weight to lose and haven’t been able to keep it off with diet and exercise alone. It is not a quick fix for the last five pounds, and it’s not appropriate for everyone. Certain medical histories rule it out entirely.
That’s why the program starts with a medical evaluation, not a checkout page. If you’re not a good candidate, you’ll hear that at your consultation, along with what might actually help instead.
How GLP-1 medications work, in plain English.
GLP-1 medications mimic a hormone your body already makes, one that regulates appetite and blood sugar. On the medication, most patients feel full sooner, stay full longer, and stop thinking about food constantly. In clinical trials, patients on semaglutide lost roughly 15% of their body weight on average over about 16 months, alongside diet and lifestyle changes.
The medication is a weekly injection. Dosing starts low and increases gradually, which is where supervision matters. The ramp-up schedule is how side effects like nausea are kept manageable.
What’s included at DNJ.
A full medical intake and candidacy evaluation with Diana
Your medication and a personalized dose-escalation plan
Regular check-ins to track progress, adjust dosing, and manage side effects
Direct access to your nurse between visits. When something feels off, you message a medical professional who knows your chart, not a support ticket queue
A plan for maintenance, because keeping the weight off is the actual goal
The difference between a program and a prescription.
You can get GLP-1s from a dozen websites right now with a two-minute questionnaire. What you can’t get from those sites: someone who examines you first, catches the contraindication in your history, adjusts your dose when the nausea hits in week three, and answers the phone when you’re not sure if a side effect is normal.
Diana spent her career in hospital medicine before aesthetics. Weight loss patients at DNJ get that experience applied to every dose decision.

Questions, answered.
How much weight will I lose?
It varies by person, dose, and consistency, and no honest provider will promise a number. In clinical trials, semaglutide patients averaged around 15% body weight loss over about 16 months. Your consultation covers realistic expectations for your situation.
What are the side effects?
The most common are nausea, constipation, and fatigue, especially during dose increases. Careful dose management keeps these manageable for most patients. It’s the main reason to do this with supervision rather than a mail-order service.
Do I have to inject myself?
The medication is a once-weekly injection with a very small needle. Diana teaches you the technique, and most patients find it far easier than expected.
Who shouldn’t take GLP-1 medications?
Patients with certain personal or family medical histories, including some thyroid and pancreatic conditions, and anyone pregnant or planning pregnancy. Your medical screening covers this in detail.
What happens when I stop?
Appetite typically returns, which is why the program includes a maintenance plan rather than an abrupt stop. This is discussed from day one.
How much does the program cost?
Your monthly program price, including your medication and check-ins, is quoted at your consultation. No membership traps.
