medical weight loss program

We use scientifically proven methods for weight loss and weight maintenance.  These can include medications like Phentermine and Metformin.  We expect you to get up and move (like Michelle Obama's program), but we're realistic.  Let's face it, "you get your belly in the kitchen, not in the gym."  We use behavioral changes to help you change your lifestyle.  You got your body by what you are doing now.  If you go back to that lifestyle, you will be right back into that body again.  We give you accountability.  Routine follow up that is no more than 4 weeks apart gives you a high rate of success.  Feedback is a gift.  If you don't know how you are doing, how can you know how you are doing?

Metabolic Syndrome - The Silent Killer
Diabetes.  Cancer. Heart Attack.  Stroke.  Metabolic syndrome increases your risk for all these and more.  In fact, it's said that if you have Metabolic Syndrome, you have a 100% chance of developing Diabetes if you live long enough. 
What is Metabolic Syndrome?  How do I know if I have Metabolic Syndrome?  If you have just 3 of the five things listed below, you have Metabolic Syndrome:

  • Waistline at the top of the pelvic bones greater than 40 inches in men or 35 inches in women
  • Borderline Hypertension with BP 135/85 or higher
  • Elevated Triglycerides Greater than 150
  • Low HDL (good cholesterol)  Less than 40 in men or 50 in women
  • Fasting Blood Sugar higher than 100


This is even more scary: 

  • You only need the high blood pressure and big waist if you are African American. 
  • It's estimated that 8 out of 10 Hispanic Americans already have Metabolic Syndrome!
  • Metabolic Syndrome gives twice as many clogged arteries as smoking!  So you have twice as much risk of a heart attack!

You don't have to stay overweight or obese.  

You don't have to have surgery to lose weight.  

Our Medical Weight Loss Expert Doctor Gear (Bariatric Physician) can teach you how to lose weight and keep it off.  It's so easy, even he does it!   (Maybe we should call it Physicians Weight Loss!)
