In-Depth Medical Evaluation
Before a customized medically monitored weight loss program is created for you, you will undergo an in-depth medical evaluation. Our M.D. along with our expert medical staff will perform the following:
- A review of your overall health history.
- A review of all the medications and supplements that you may be taking to determine if they are preventing you from losing weight.
- Conduct a comprehensive blood test to check for insulin resistance, thyroid function, and other factors.
- A physical exam to check heart function and overall health.
Using this information, we will create a program that will help you safely and effectively lose weight and most importantly, keep it off.
Sound Medical Analysis
We will analyze various factors, including your basal metabolic rate (BMR) and your body's composition of water, muscle and fat to accurately predict the minimum amount of weight you will be able to safely lose over a specific period of time.
Safe and Effective Weight Loss
If we diet incorrectly, our body's natural tendency is to burn muscle before it burns fat. This is one of the reasons you gain back the weight after stopping a diet - muscle is instrumental in the fat burning process and why improper dieting can be so unsafe.
Medically supervised weight loss is different. Our medical team will consistently monitor your body composition and will adjust your program accordingly. We will make sure that you are burning fat and not muscle. This monitoring will allow you to have an easier time keeping the weight off in the future.
