Naturopathic Weight Loss (NWL) is a fast-growing startup offering telehealth and telemedicine services, with a focus on weight loss and management using cutting-edge GLP-1 medication. To meet their rapid growth and increasing demand, NWL needed to scale its online presence while ensuring the security, performance, and compliance necessary for handling sensitive patient data.
NOVA Cloud partnered with NWL to deliver a managed hosting solution that would transform their digital infrastructure into a fully optimized, HIPAA-compliant, and scalable environment, setting the foundation for sustained growth and operational efficiency.

🟢 A HIPAA-compliant hosting environment
🟢 E-commerce functionality to streamline product and service sales
🟢 Enhanced website performance and reliability
🟢 Scalability to accommodate future growth and demand
