Surgical Weight Loss: Bariatric Surgery with a Multidisciplinary Team

Non-Surgical Weight Loss Options: Medications and Personalized Support
For those who may not require or desire surgery, our non-surgical weight loss options offer effective alternatives tailored to your needs. One of our most popular offerings is weight loss medication, including Semaglutide injections, an FDA-approved medication that works by regulating appetite and blood sugar levels, helping you manage hunger and reduce food intake. This can be especially beneficial for those looking to make steady, sustainable progress in their weight loss journey.
In addition to medication, our non-surgical weight loss services include:
- Metabolic Rate Testing: Provides personalized insights into how many calories your body burns, helping us create a targeted plan for you.
- Body Composition Analysis: Measures muscle mass, body fat percentage, and other key indicators to track progress.
- Nutrition Counseling: Our dietitian works with you to develop a balanced eating plan that supports weight loss and health.
- Exercise Planning: Customized exercise recommendations help you incorporate physical activity into your routine in a way that’s sustainable and enjoyable.
- Ongoing Coaching and Support: Regular check-ins and coaching help you stay on track, celebrate milestones, and adjust your plan as needed.
Our non-surgical program is designed to provide you with the tools, knowledge, and encouragement you need to achieve your weight loss goals without surgery.
