MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS

We will work together with you for fast, safe, affordable, and lasting weight loss.

How the Program Works

The First Visit—Your thorough initial consultation is always with a physician, and includes a body composition analysis based on state of the art technology. Your doctor will explain each report including how many calories you burn in a day, and your body’s distribution of fat, water, and muscle. A comprehensive medical and diet history is taken by the physician, along with a detailed physical exam to include lab work and any other necessary tests. Using all this information, your doctor will then present you with your best plan options for weight loss in a safe and effective manner. There are several options available to you. Your plan may involve full meal replacement, partial meal replacement, or a detailed calorie plan using your own food, specific to your metabolic needs. Through your body composition analysis, we can very accurately predict the amount of weight you can lose over a given period of time.

Follow-up Visits — What to Expect

With each visit, you will get a new body composition analysis, and individually meet with the physician to discuss it, along with reviewing your week’s progress. Your doctor will be able to tell you how much of your weight loss has been from fat, water, or muscle, and then adjust your program accordingly. New medication prescriptions will be provided as necessary. With each visit, you’ll learn valuable insights into how you approach your daily life. This will help you maintain long-term weight control. Behavior modules on a different topic relating to weight management are provided by your physician weekly.

Benefits of Medically Managed Weight Loss

There are clear advantages to achieving your weight loss through a qualified physician. Our non-surgical, one-on-one, physician-directed program offers strategies unavailable through commercial weight loss programs. Only a medical doctor can customize a plan based on your unique metabolism, hormonal issues, medications, and other physical weight loss concerns. Many of the associated medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or high cholesterol will require careful monitoring and medication adjustment during the weight loss transition time.

We work in close collaboration with your other physicians. Often medication can be decreased, or even discontinued, after weight loss! All these changes will be communicated to your primary care physician. Your visits to our office will always be with a physician, who is skilled in treating complex medical conditions, and can make sure that your weight loss is done in a safe manner.

Our Philosophy

Overweight individuals should expect healthcare that is safe and fits their lifestyle. Treatment should recognize and respect their individual physical, social, spiritual, psychological, and economic needs. Obesity is a chronic disease which requires a lifelong treatment plan. It deserves the same level of attention that other chronic medical conditions, like diabetes or hypertension, receive. It is not simply a result of “weakness” or “lack of will power” on the part of the patient.

Directed by a Board Certified Obesity Medicine physician, our program follows the national guidelines developed by the Obesity Medicine Association.
