Services Offered
Our medical weight loss programs are designed around evidence-based treatments that go beyond diet and exercise. We offer prescription weight loss medications when appropriate, including FDA-approved options like semaglutide and tirzepatide that can significantly reduce appetite and cravings. Our physicians conduct thorough medical evaluations to ensure safety and effectiveness. Nutritional counseling forms the backbone of our approach, with registered dietitians providing meal planning, portion control education, and strategies for long-term dietary changes. We also offer body composition analysis using advanced technology to track fat loss versus muscle preservation. Behavioral modification sessions help address emotional eating patterns and develop healthy coping mechanisms. For patients who qualify, we provide medical monitoring of underlying conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure that often improve with weight loss. Our programs include regular check-ins, progress tracking, and ongoing support to ensure you stay on track toward your goals.

What to Expect
Your weight loss journey begins with a comprehensive medical consultation where we review your health history, current medications, and previous weight loss attempts. We'll conduct a physical exam and may order lab work to assess your metabolic health and rule out any underlying conditions. Based on this evaluation, we'll create a personalized treatment plan that might include prescription medications, nutritional counseling, and behavioral support.
Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor your progress, adjust medications if needed, and provide ongoing support. We typically see patients weekly during the initial phase, then transition to bi-weekly or monthly visits as you establish healthy habits. Throughout the process, you'll have access to our team for questions and support between visits.
Why Choose Physicians WEIGHT LOSS Centers
Choosing Physicians WEIGHT LOSS Centers means partnering with a team that has over 30 years of proven success in medical weight loss. Our physician-supervised approach ensures your safety while maximizing your results. Unlike commercial weight loss programs, we can prescribe medications when appropriate and monitor your health throughout the process. Our success rates speak for themselves, with most patients losing 15-20% of their body weight when they follow our programs.
We understand that sustainable weight loss requires more than willpower. That's why we address the medical, nutritional, and behavioral factors that contribute to weight gain.

With multiple locations and flexible scheduling, we make it convenient to stay committed to your weight loss journey.
Insurance & Pricing
Many insurance plans now cover medically supervised weight loss programs, especially when obesity-related conditions are present. We accept most major insurance plans and will verify your coverage before starting treatment. For patients without insurance coverage, we offer competitive self-pay rates and flexible payment options. The cost of our programs varies based on the specific treatments included, such as medications and frequency of visits. We believe investing in your health through medical weight loss is one of the best investments you can make, often leading to reduced healthcare costs long-term as obesity-related conditions improve.
First-Time Patient Tips
Success in our program requires commitment and active participation. Come to your appointments prepared with questions and be honest about challenges you're facing. Keep a food diary if requested, as this helps us identify patterns and make necessary adjustments to your plan. Take medications as prescribed and don't make changes without consulting our team first.
Expect some ups and downs during your weight loss journey. Plateaus are normal and don't mean the program isn't working. Stay hydrated, get adequate sleep, and try to incorporate physical activity as tolerated. Remember that sustainable weight loss typically occurs at a rate of 1-2 pounds per week. Most importantly, view this as a lifestyle change rather than a temporary diet. The habits you develop during the program will serve you well for maintaining your weight loss long-term.
