You’re Already on Treatment.
But Something’s Missing.
Physician-led care that finally integrates medical treatment with the behavioural skills, daily support, and strategic clarity you've been piecing together on your own.
$249 CAD/mo • Minimum 3 months • Ontario residents • Not covered by public insurance
Physician-led by Ashley White, MD, DipABOM (Board Certified in Obesity Medicine)
If you’re already using GLP-1’s or other medications, you know the reality:
Your current provider prescribed the medication. Maybe adjusted the dose. But where's the education about how it actually works in your body? Where's the support when appetite changes confuse you? Where's the behavioral framework that helps you build lasting skills alongside the medication?
You're managing side effects alone. Navigating food decisions without guidance. Wondering if this is working optimally or if there's something you're missing.
You deserve better than prescribe-and-dismiss.
The Shift Clinic integrates everything your current provider isn't offering—so the medication you're taking works within a complete system of care, not as an isolated intervention.
What changes when you switch to The Shift:
-
Medical care that actually explains things
No more "here's your dose, see you next month." You'll understand how the medication works, why certain effects happen, what to expect as you progress—and how to work with your physician to optimize treatment for your specific physiology and goals.
-
Appetite Literacy—the skill nobody taught you
GLP-1s change your appetite. But do you know how to read those new signals? Learn to distinguish hunger from wanting, recognize true fullness, and use these insights as data rather than fighting them or second-guessing yourself constantly.
-
Daily support when decisions actually happen
Not just monthly check-ins. You get 1:1 messaging-based coaching before challenging meals, during travel, when side effects surface, when old patterns resurface—in the moments that matter. This is how behavioral change sticks.
-
The behavioral framework that makes change sustainable
The MAP Framework (Metabolism, Appetite, Perspective), Eat Above Water skills, and Values-to-Strategy work—so you're not white-knuckling your way through this. You're building lasting patterns that work with your medication, not despite it.
-
A professional community at your level
Connect with other accomplished, thoughtful women who are navigating the same questions, challenges, and wins. Moderated, physician-present, judgment-free—this isn't diet culture. This is evidence-based care among peers who get it.
-
Live strategy sessions every month
The Weekender—a 4-part, physician-led weekend workshop where you translate your values into concrete monthly plans. Plus live Q&As where you can ask Dr. White your actual questions and get real answers.
This is for you if…
✓ You're already on treatment (GLP-1s, metformin, naltrexone-bupropion, or other medications) but feel like you're managing it alone
✓ Your current provider prescribes but doesn't educate—you want to actually understand what's happening in your body
✓ You're piecing together behavioral support from Instagram, podcasts, and trial-and-error—exhausting and inefficient
✓ Side effects confuse you and you're not sure what's normal, what to adjust, or when to speak up
✓ You want physician oversight that's collaborative, not paternalistic—you're intelligent and deserve to be treated that way
✓ You're navigating midlife changes and suspect your old strategies need updating alongside your medication
✓ You value evidence, autonomy, and empathy in equal measure—and you're tired of settling for less
Common Gaps in Current Care — and How The Shift Fills Them
Gap: "My doctor prescribes but never explains how it actually works."
Shift Solution: Every medication decision includes the mechanism, expected timeline, what to monitor, and how to adjust safely. You understand why you're taking it and how to work with it.
Gap: "I have no idea if my side effects are normal or concerning."
Shift Solution: Daily messaging support means you can ask in real-time. No waiting weeks for an appointment to find out if nausea, constipation, or appetite changes require intervention.
Gap: "I'm managing everything alone—it's exhausting."
Shift Solution: Physician-led community where other intelligent women share strategies, questions, and insights. You're not isolated in this.
Gap: "Food is confusing now—I don't know what or how much to eat."
Shift Solution: Appetite Literacy and Eat Above Water skills teach you to read your changing signals and build sustainable patterns that work with the medication, not against it.
Gap: "I don't know if this is working optimally or if I should adjust something."
Shift Solution: Weekly nutrition reports and ongoing physician oversight mean adjustments happen proactively, not after months of suboptimal results.
What Makes The Shift Different
Most women taking obesity medications are managing five separate elements:
A physician for prescriptions (but no behavioural guidance)
Self-education from social media (unreliable, overwhelming, often wrong)
Trial-and-error with food (confusing, frustrating, sometimes counterproductive)
Isolated management of side effects (not sure what's normal)
No community support (or toxic diet culture groups that undermine your progress)
The Shift Clinic integrates all five elements under physician leadership — so everything reinforces your success instead of competing against it.
You receive ongoing care from Dr. Ashley White, MD, DipABOM.
You learn the proprietary Shift System (MAP Framework, Appetite Literacy, Eat Above Water).
You get daily messaging support when you actually need it.
You connect with intelligent women in a professionally moderated community.
You participate in monthly live strategy sessions that translate understanding into action.
The medical care informs the education. The education enhances the coaching. The coaching is reinforced in community. The community insights shape the live sessions. The live sessions refine your medical approach.
This is how medicine should work—for women who think like you.
Meet Dr. Ashley White
MD, DipABOM | Board- Certified Physician Specializing in Obesity Medicine
Dr. White built The Shift Clinic because she was tired of watching intelligent women receive fragmented care that forced them to become their own case managers—piecing together medication management, behavioral education, and community support from five different sources that never quite aligned.
She combines clinical expertise with deep understanding of what it's like to navigate metabolic health as an accomplished woman in midlife. Her approach respects your intelligence, explains the science, and partners with you—never managing you like a compliance problem.
You deserve a physician who treats you as the intelligent, capable adult you are.

Quick FAQ
-
Yes. We'll coordinate with your current provider to ensure smooth continuity of care. You'll bring your medical history, current prescription details, and any relevant labs—and Dr. White will take it from there with proper oversight.
-
Dr. White can continue your current prescription if clinically appropriate, or discuss alternatives if optimization is needed. You'll understand the rationale for any changes—never blindsided.
-
The Shift Clinic is private pay, which means no insurance complexity, no pre-authorizations, no surprise denials. You pay directly, and your care is never dictated by insurance protocols that don't fit your needs.
-
Via secure WhatsApp messaging—you text when you need guidance (before a challenging meal, when navigating side effects, during moments of uncertainty) and receive coaching responses within the same day. Not generic advice—personalized support based on your specific situation.
-
That's a conversation to have with Dr. White. Some patients transition off medications as they build skills; others stay on long-term. It's your body, your choice—with physician guidance to ensure safety and optimize outcomes.
-
Absolutely. The Shift Clinic complements other care you're receiving. We'll collaborate with your existing team when helpful—you're never forced to abandon relationships that work for you.
-
Flexible. Daily support is asynchronous (respond when you can). Live sessions are recorded if you can't attend. Education modules are self-paced. This fits into your life—it doesn't consume it.
