Medical Assistant
Medical Assistant & Weight Loss Advocate at Express Med Spa
Before she ever joined the clinical team, Jackie Umgelder was a client at Express Med Spa. Struggling with her weight and emotional well-being, Jackie made the brave decision to try GLP-1 weight loss injections. In just 9 months, she lost 130 pounds, transformed her health, and reignited her purpose.
“My journey is proof of what’s possible with the right support and tools. I am no one special. If I can do it, so can you.”
Now, Jackie is a Lead Medical Assistant at Express Med Spa in Mount Greenwood (Chicago) and Frankfort, where she walks alongside others pursuing similar transformations.
Jackie’s Weight Loss Journey: From Client to Caregiver
Jackie’s story isn’t one of overnight success or filtered perfection. It’s one of consistency, courage, and deep personal accountability. With the clinical guidance of the Express Med Spa team, she embraced:
- Lifestyle coaching and habit shifts
- Regular check-ins and support from providers who genuinely cared
As she lost over 100 pounds, Jackie gained something else: a calling.
“This isn’t about chasing skinny. It’s about reclaiming your energy, your health, and your life.”
