First-Time Patient Tips

Before your first appointment, gather information about your medical history, current medications, and previous weight loss attempts. It's helpful to keep a food diary for a week prior to your visit. Don't start any new diets before your consultation - we want to assess your current eating patterns. Bring a list of questions about treatments you're curious about or concerns you have. Wear comfortable clothing for your physical exam and weigh-in. Come prepared to discuss your goals honestly and commit to following the treatment plan we develop together.
