Start your SymbiosAlign plan
Your team builds your plan around medical oversight, nutrition, movement, tracking, and accountability.
Review your progress and plan what comes next
We design your bespoke plan. You meet with your team at 6 weeks and again at 12 weeks to review what changed and decide your next step.
Success is about more than the number on the scale.
Together, you and your team look at the changes that matter to your health and your life, including:
- Weight and body composition
- Energy and mobility
- Strength and physical confidence
- Relevant labs and metabolic markers
- Consistency and daily habits
- Food noise, cravings, and eating habits
“I have lost 18 inches off my body, and the scans keep me inspired to keep going.”SymbiosAlign patient. Individual results vary.
Weight loss should not be disconnected from the rest of your health.
Most programs treat one piece of the problem:
- Medication without meaningful oversight
- Generic nutrition advice
- Exercise that ignores your health and mobility
- Short-term results without a plan for maintaining them
- Results that fade when the program ends
SymbiosAlign takes a more complete approach. Your health history, body response, goals, habits, and progress inform the plan. Not a one-size-fits-all formula.
Stop guessing what your body needs.
This is not just about losing weight.
SymbiosAlign is a proven, personalized, physician-led program that helps you lose weight safely, improve body composition, and build lasting habits. You get a plan built around your medical picture and a care team that adjusts it when progress slows.
Weight loss is not the whole problem. Losing control is.
You have lost the same weight before. You are doing the right things and the needle will not move. Most people in that position are not short on effort. They are missing the data, the structure, and the support to see what their body needs.
SymbiosAlign starts with a medical evaluation. From there you follow a plan built on your labs, your metabolism, and your results, and that plan adjusts as your body changes. Not a GLP-1 clinic. Not a gym. Not a diet plan.
Most patients come to Align to lose weight. They stay because they feel stronger, move better, and feel back in control.
Your weight loss plan is part of your health care, not separate from it.
SymbiosAlign connects you to the team that already knows your health. Your team sees the full picture, explains your options, and adjusts your plan as your body responds.
Not an online medication order. Not another diet. A structured program with real people behind it.
SymbiosAlign helps you make progress. A personalized SymbiosCare plan helps you keep building on it.
Many programs end right when results start, and old patterns return. At 12 weeks, your practitioner reviews your results and goals with you, and together you choose your next level of support.
Questions about SymbiosAlign
What is SymbiosAlign?
SymbiosAlign is a 12-week, physician-led weight loss program at Symbios Health on Hilton Head Island. It combines medical oversight, nutrition, movement, body composition tracking, medication when appropriate, and accountability into one plan built around your health.
Is SymbiosAlign only about weight loss?
No. Weight loss is one result. You and your team also track energy, strength, mobility, labs, metabolic markers, and eating habits. Most patients come to lose weight and stay because they feel stronger and more in control.
Does the program include weight loss medication?
Yes, when it is right for you. Where appropriate, providers at Symbios prescribe FDA-approved medications commonly known as GLP-1s, including semaglutide and tirzepatide. These medications are only prescribed within the context of a closely monitored, comprehensive program that includes diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes, so Symbios patients experience predictable health improvements that last. Medication is never the whole plan.
Who qualifies for medication?
After evaluating your current levels of health, fitness, diet, strength, mobility, and body composition, and discussing your health goals, you and your healthcare provider make medication decisions together.
Which body composition scan do you use?
Members in SymbiosCare programs have regular Styku body composition scans. The frequency is determined by your current levels of health, fitness, diet, strength, and mobility, and by your health goals.
How long is the initial program?
The initial SymbiosAlign program runs for 12 weeks. Your team builds your plan at the start, reviews your progress at week 6, and meets with you at week 12 to plan your next step.
What happens after the initial program?
At 12 weeks, your practitioner reviews your results and goals with you. Together you choose your next step, such as another phase of SymbiosAlign or a personalized SymbiosCare plan.
Do I need to be a Symbios Primary Care patient?
No. Many patients start with a referral from their Symbios Primary Care provider, and others contact our team directly. Call 843-738-4800 or book time with our team online to start.
How do I know if SymbiosAlign is right for me?
Talk to our team. SymbiosAlign fits adults who do the right things and still cannot lose weight, want medical oversight, or need structure and accountability. Call 843-738-4800 or book time with our team online.
What is SymbiosCare?
SymbiosCare is the overarching brand for all of our custom care programs. SymbiosAlign is our premium, 12-week, high-accountability program within SymbiosCare. If SymbiosAlign is not a good fit, you and your practitioner work together to build a personalized plan. It can include health coaching, scans, labs, provider visits, nutrition, medications, and personal training.
What does the program cost?
Prices for our bespoke SymbiosCare programs vary, as they are custom built for where you are today and where you want to go with your health.
Is the program covered by insurance?
SymbiosCare programs are cash pay. For Medicare patients who qualify, Part D may now cover the medication but not the program. Check with your insurance provider to see if HSA/FSA funds can be used for SymbiosCare programs.
Do you see patients from Bluffton, Sun City, and Okatie?
Yes. Many of our patients come from Bluffton, Sun City, and Okatie too.
