What happens during medical weight loss visits?

You can meet with a weight loss specialist at Hale Family Practice in person or remotely via telemedicine. They evaluate your weight, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, pulse, and other vital signs.

Your provider reviews your medical history, including your medications, diagnoses, and lifestyle habits — particularly diet, exercise, hydration, and sleep habits. 

They develop a weight management plan based on your initial body weight, target weight, lifestyle, medical history, and health goals. 

Your personalized weight loss program may include the following:

• Individualized diet plan
• Nutrition education
• Dietary supplements
• Exercise prescriptions
• Weight loss medications
• Behavior change counseling
• IV therapy
• Vitamin injections

Follow up with your Hale Family Practice weight loss provider weekly, biweekly, or as needed until you achieve your goal weight. 

How long will it take me to reach my goal weight?

Many weight loss patients at Hale Family Practice lose about 1-2 pounds weekly, up to 5 pounds per week in some cases. Your unique weight loss rate depends on how well you adhere to the weight management program and how much weight you’d like to lose. 

Hale Family Practice may alter your weight loss treatment plan as you begin losing weight. The practice specialists also help you maintain your goal weight long-term.
