Luma Health provides online medical weight-management evaluations to eligible Texas adults. Virtual care can reduce travel time and make follow-up easier to coordinate around work, family, school, and commuting. It does not replace emergency care, preventive primary care, or an in-person evaluation when a clinician determines one is necessary.
Provider-guided care from home
Submitting an assessment does not guarantee treatment or a prescription. A licensed clinician reviews each patient's medical history and determines whether treatment is appropriate.
Check eligibility →Build a sustainable weekly plan
Start with one realistic activity route, one reliable grocery stop, and one repeatable meal or movement habit. Consistency is usually easier when the plan fits the neighborhood and schedule a person already has. Discuss significant changes in activity, diet, or medication with an appropriate healthcare professional.
