Medical Weight Loss

Medical Weight Loss involves a comprehensive medical office visit, history and physical, to determine the factors that have contributed to weight gain. Dr. Ling will partner with you to develop a short and long term plan to lose weight safely, and remodel the composition of your body.  We also utilize a detoxification program called FirstLine Therapy Clear Change by Metagenics, as part of the weight loss program, as well as for those who have stalled or plateaued in their progress.

Note:

We DO NOT offer any GLP-1 Products for weight loss.

The risk for blindness, hair loss (telogen effluvium, androgenic alopecia, nonscarring hair loss), medullary thyroid cancer, gallbladder and pancreatic issues, GI disturbances (noninfectious gastroenteritis) and abdominal pain, kidney stones, interstitial nephritis, musculoskeletal problems (tenosynovitis), headaches, and bone pain, depression, anxiety, suicidal behavior, loss of muscle mass, and the regaining of weight after discontinuing this $400-1000/month injection far outweigh the temporary benefit of weight loss.

We encourage you to spend the money on re-evaluating your relationship with food, a personal trainer, and a meal plan. The benefits of that would last longer.

Medical weight loss is a science based treatment, designed to help any individual with his or her specific weight loss goals, whether to lose 100 pounds or those last stubborn ten pounds. It is especially beneficial for those who have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher because it can reduce the risk of other serious medical conditions.Successfully losing weight can play a huge role in the way we feel and see ourselves. Losing weight can also lead to a dramatic shift in your health status. Weight loss and a healthier lifestyle can help alleviate many health risks associated with extra weight, including:

  • High cholesterol
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Coronary heart disease
  • Stroke
  • Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
