At Family Physicians of Cedar Rapids, we believe healthcare goes beyond the walls of our office. Good health starts with education, and sometimes the best way to learn is right where you are, whether that’s at work, your church, or a community group.
That’s why we’re excited to offer a new opportunity this fall: Our doctor will come to your workplace or organization to share valuable information about weight loss injections and overall healthy living.
Weight loss can feel overwhelming when you’re trying to figure it out alone. With so many diets, quick fixes, and confusing advice out there, it’s important to know the science behind what works and what doesn’t. During these sessions, our doctor will discuss:
✅ How weight loss injections work and who may benefit from them
✅ Safe and realistic expectations for results
✅ The importance of pairing medication with healthy habits
These talks are designed to be practical, approachable, and motivating. Whether you’re looking to support employees in creating healthier lifestyles, encourage your church or community group, or just start the conversation about health, our team is here to help.
If you’d like to schedule a session for your group or learn more about our weight loss program, give us a call today. Together, we can help more people take the first step toward feeling better and living healthier.

As snow and ice move in, we want to remind everyone to slow down, watch for slick spots, and take extra care when walking, driving, or shoveling. A fall on icy ground can happen in seconds, so sturdy shoes, small steps, and a little patience go a long way. Winter storms are also a good reminder of how important it is to take care of your overall health. Feeling stronger, lighter, and more confident in your body can make everyday moments, like navigating snowy sidewalks, feel a little easier. If improving your health is one of your goals this season, our weight loss injections may be a supportive option. We’re here to help you safely take steps toward feeling your best, inside and out. Stay warm, stay safe ❄️
