LifeMed Institute Has the Missing Piece to Your Weight Loss Puzzle!

Millions of Americans battle with weight loss every day! LifeMed Institute is dedicated to helping our patients win this battle offering several medical weight loss programs helping hundreds of our patients lose weight.

What is medical weight loss?

Based on medical and scientific evidence physicians can target the root causes of obesity and weight gain to achieve and sustain long-term weight loss. Working with a doctor to help you manage your weight is very different from “commercial” programs. With a medical weight loss program a physician can prescribe medications to help ensure your success. Additionally, if you have a condition that requires medication that may be interfering with your weight loss, a physician can see if other options are available.

Does a patient have to be “obese” to benefit from medical weight loss?

No, medical weight loss is something anyone can benefit from (barring contraindicated medical conditions). Whether a patient has 100 pounds or more to lose or just needs to get those last few pounds off a medical weight loss program can help!

What is GLP-1 medication?

GLP-1s are groundbreaking medications that have completely changed the game in weight loss treatment.

Now you can experience lasting weight loss by addressing the underlying conditions affecting your body’s chemistry.

These breakthrough medications take the confusion and difficulty out of weight loss for good.

In studies, patients lost, on average, 15% of their body weight with GLP-1s.*

By changing these factors, your gut will send signals to the brain to improve metabolic function and regulate your digestion and appetite, helping you feel fuller longer.

LifeMed Institute gives patients a comprehensive weight loss plan that includes appropriate prescriptions, lab work, and lifestyle coaching. We’re here to help you achieve the lasting weight loss you’re looking for.

*Based on the average weight loss in three 68-week clinical trials of patients without diabetes who reached and maintained a dose of 2.4 mg/week of GLP-1 treatment, along with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Will I feel an energy deficit?
