Why Are Our Programs So Effective?

Individual attention from the start.
A relationship with your physician forms with your first visit. An in-depth evaluation is the first step toward your personalized program.

  • Safe & Effective Weight Loss
    • Your doctor will be able to tell you how much of the weight you are losing is from fat, water or muscle, and adjust your program accordingly.
  • Realistic & Accurate Expectations
    • Using your body composition, and other measurements, your doctor can accurately predict the amount of weight you can lose over time.
  • Personal Support from Your Doctor
    • With each visit, you'll learn valuable insights into how you can approach your daily life to maintain the weight loss you are achieving.
    • Our SI Medical Weight Loss physician has received extensive training and is highly qualified.
  • The Medical Weight Loss Difference
    Physician-directed programs offer strategies unavailable to non-physician weight loss programs. Our medical weight loss physician is committed to helping you lose weight quickly and safely, but most importantly, to helping you keep the weight off long-term.
  • We offer natural appetite suppressants and prescription products, such as Phentermine, that are both safe and effective. We offer natural health supplements that are pharmaceutical grade and clinically proven. The natural supplements help solve problems of poor sleep, high stress, anxiety, cravings for sugar and carbohydrates , fat loss, unhealthy cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, irregular and/or difficult periods, and other health related problems that can affect your weight as well as your health. Individualized Programs: What makes our clinic unique is that we look at you as an individual. Through proper testing, detailed consultations and monthly follow-ups, we determine (1) the cause of your weight gain; (2) what health conditions might interfere with your ability to lose weight (for example, medications that you are taking, low thyroid levels, high glucose levels, etc.); and (3) what will best work for you given your individual situation.
