Why Dr. Laura created MeltOff
There’s a person behind every goal.
Dr. Laura Purdy, MD, MBA, created MeltOff for people who are tired of being treated like an order number, a refill, or a before-and-after photograph. Weight loss is real healthcare, and she believes it deserves the same honesty, patience, and relationship people expect from a trusted primary care clinician.
What care looks like after the first visit.
MeltOff makes room for the full story: the plateaus, side effects, restarts, discouragement, family schedules, and habits that have to survive an ordinary Tuesday. Medication may support the body, but it cannot live a person's life for them.
Dr. Laura's role is to help patients understand their options, build a plan they can return to, and keep going without shame when progress becomes difficult. Inside the Swell clinical home, MeltOff offers steady guidance, practical education, and a community where patients do not have to disappear when the process gets hard.
What care may include
Medication may be one part of the plan.
Your clinician may use several tools, depending on your health, preferences, and what is medically appropriate.
Your health and history
Review your health history, weight pattern, goals, and the risks that may affect treatment.
Daily routines
Work on nutrition, movement, sleep, and habits that have to fit the life you actually live.
Medication review
Discuss weight-management medication when it is medically appropriate, with no promise that it will be prescribed.
Follow-up
Talk through side effects, plateaus, progress, and changes that may call for a different plan.
About medication
It can help, but it is not the whole plan.
Weight-management medication can be useful for some people. It is not right for everyone, and a prescription is never guaranteed. Availability may also depend on supply, pharmacy access, and cost.
What we will discuss
Know your options before you decide.
Ask about benefits, side effects, costs, and alternatives. Your clinician will explain what needs monitoring and help you understand your choices.
