As a physician specializing in medical weight loss, I'm excited that more people now have access to these life-changing medications.
But I also want to share an important message.
Over the past few years, I've seen far too many people—especially adults over 60, lose weight while unintentionally compromising their health. Many people are losing weight while becoming malnourished. That's not the kind of weight loss we should be celebrating.
GLP-1 medications can produce remarkable results when they're part of a comprehensive medical weight loss program. My concern is that too many patients receive these medications without the education, nutrition counseling, and ongoing support needed to use them safely and effectively. When medication is prescribed without a personalized plan, patients are at greater risk for poor-quality weight loss, muscle loss, malnutrition, and results that are difficult to maintain.
You don't have to navigate this on your own.
Skip the endless online research, the quick questionnaire that counts as a "medical visit," and the one-size-fits-all approach. Choose a team whose specialty is medical weight loss.
For more than 27 years, that's been our focus. Every day, we help patients build healthier habits, preserve muscle, improve nutrition, and achieve lasting results through personalized medical care. We're the best at what we do and we love what we do!
Whether you're just beginning your journey or looking for the support you've been missing, my team and I would be honored to help you reach your goals.
I can't wait to meet you and be part of your success story!
