About the Company

Voy

Personalized weight-loss program with meds

Voy helps people lose weight by combining medical treatment with ongoing behavioral coaching. It runs a weight‑loss program where clients start with an online assessment to identify a personalized plan, then receive prescribed medication delivered discreetly to their home, plus regular coaching sessions to monitor progress and reshape eating habits. The approach also tackles emotional eating and aims for long‑term results, supported by a subscription model that provides continuous care. Compared with traditional dieting, Voy emphasizes medically guided weight management and sustained support, which it says leads to much greater total weight loss over time. The company’s goal is to help clients achieve durable health improvements by pairing personalized care, medical treatment, and habit change.
