A Personalized Weight
Loss Program tailored to each individual, supervised by the physician at each monthly visit. No initial visit fees/enrollment
fees or long term contracts! A "Pay as you go" program.
Uses only FDA approved proven prescription weight loss medicines. Please note that depending
on one's height, body weight, age, medical history and medications being prescribed concurrently, the benefits/risks of weight
loss medications may not qualify an individual for this program. We do not provide weight loss services to those under 21
or over 65 years of age. Comprehensive diet and exercise plans also provided. We follow the guidelines published by the
National Institutes of Health. These guidelines can be found at www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/public/heart/obesity/lose_wt/risk.htm.
A BMI of 26 or higher is considered overweight per guidelines. If your BMI is lower, you will be not eligible for prescription
appetite suppressants.
A state issued photo identification is required at each visit
to the office.
We diligently
participate in the State of Illinois Prescription Monitoring Program designed to curb opiate abuse. If you are currently taking
any form of opiate medications, you do not qualify for prescription weight loss medications. Every person will be screened
at every single visit for controlled substances thru the State of Illinois database prior to obtaining prescriptions from
our office.
