Why Weight Loss Management Matters
Obesity and excess weight are linked to a wide range of health conditions, including diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and joint problems. But losing weight isn’t just about numbers on a scale—it’s about feeling better, moving more freely, and reducing your risk of chronic illness.
Our weight loss management program is designed to help you:
Lose weight safely and sustainably
Improve blood sugar and cholesterol levels
Reduce medication dependence
Increase energy and mobility
Build lifelong healthy habits
We understand that every patient’s journey is different. That’s why we tailor our approach to your unique needs, lifestyle, and medical history.
Comprehensive Care in Diabetes and Weight Management
For patients with pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes, weight loss can be a powerful tool for improving blood sugar control and reducing complications. At Patient Choice Medical Care, we integrate comprehensive diabetes care into our weight loss program, offering:
Regular blood glucose monitoring
Hemoglobin A1c testing
Prescribing Medication including GLP1
Nutritional counseling
Lifestyle coaching
We also offer guidance on GLP-1 receptor agonist medications—a class of drugs that can support both weight loss and blood sugar control. These medications, when appropriate, are prescribed as part of a broader plan that includes diet, exercise, and behavioral support.
