weight management & Weight Loss

We help you adopt personalized lifestyle modifications to maintain healthy body weight on the basis of age, sex, and height.

overview

At YSMD, our weight management program focuses on the “why” behind your weight changes. We educate and guide you every step of the way to help you achieve your goals and optimize your quality of life.

Obesity has been linked to a number of health problems, including:

  • Osteoarthritis
  • Gallstones
  • Cancer
  • Stroke
  • High blood pressure
  • Heart disease
  • Diabetes
  • Breathing problems
  • Fatty liver disease

benefits

We’ll take you through a series of exams and tests to identify the source of your weight gain (metabolic dysfunction, hormone imbalances, or simply because of lack of exercise).

Once you begin the weight management program, you can expect to see some of the following benefits:

  • Effective, safe weight loss
  • Control of your cravings
  • Increased energy
  • End of yo-yo dieting


what to expect

If you’ve tried to lose weight for a while, you may have some anxiety about what to expect. Our goal at YSMD is to make you as comfortable as possible. At your first appointment, your doctor will discuss with you:

  • Weight loss goals
  • Your day-to-day routine for diet and exercise
  • Past weight-loss journey
  • Medical history

Our goal is to help you find the best treatment so you can lose weight and keep it off in the long-term through treatments such as:

  • Simple diet and exercise
  • Stress management
  • Behavioral or mental health therapy
  • Weight loss medications
  • Permanent treatments like bariatric or weight-loss surgery if needed
