Total Health Wellness Center
Weight Loss Clinic in Memphis, Tennessee
About Total Health Wellness Center
Total Health Wellness Center provides comprehensive, medically-supervised weight loss programs that address the whole person, not just the number on the scale. We believe sustainable weight loss requires understanding and treating the underlying factors that contribute to weight gain, including metabolic dysfunction, hormonal imbalances, and lifestyle challenges.
Our multidisciplinary team combines medical expertise with practical lifestyle coaching to create personalized programs that fit your unique needs and circumstances. We've helped hundreds of Memphis residents achieve lasting weight loss by focusing on education, support, and evidence-based treatments that promote long-term health rather than quick fixes that don't last.
Services Offered
Our comprehensive weight loss services begin with extensive medical evaluation including metabolic testing, hormone assessments, and nutritional analysis to identify underlying causes of weight gain. Medical weight loss programs utilize FDA-approved prescription medications when appropriate, combined with careful monitoring for safety and effectiveness. Nutritional counseling provides personalized meal planning that considers food preferences, cultural backgrounds, and lifestyle constraints. Behavioral coaching addresses emotional eating patterns and helps develop healthy coping strategies. Body composition analysis tracks fat loss and muscle preservation throughout your journey. We offer vitamin B12 injections and other nutritional supplements to support energy and metabolism. Group support programs provide community and accountability with others on similar journeys. Exercise guidance helps you develop sustainable fitness habits appropriate for your current fitness level and physical limitations.

Unlike commercial diet programs, we customize every aspect of treatment based on your individual health profile and needs.

We accept most insurance plans and work to maximize coverage for medically necessary services.
Insurance & Pricing
Many of our services are covered by insurance, especially when weight loss is medically necessary for treating conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea. We accept most major insurance plans including Medicare and Medicaid. Prior authorization may be required for some treatments, which our staff will handle for you. Self-pay options are available for services not covered by insurance. We offer payment plans to make comprehensive weight loss care accessible regardless of insurance coverage. HSA and FSA accounts can be used for eligible medical services.
First-Time Patient Tips
Success requires active participation in your treatment plan including attending scheduled appointments, following nutritional guidelines, and taking prescribed medications as directed. Keep accurate food logs when requested and be honest about challenges you're facing. Don't expect perfection, sustainable weight loss includes occasional setbacks that we'll help you navigate.
Stay committed to the process even when progress seems slow, as lasting change takes time. Communicate any side effects or concerns immediately so we can adjust your treatment accordingly. Participate in group sessions when recommended, as peer support significantly improves long-term success. Plan for maintenance phase early, as keeping weight off requires different strategies than losing it initially.
