Body Composition Analysis
Our InBody 570 test provides precise measurements of muscle mass, body fat percentage, and hydration levels. This non-invasive scan helps track metabolic changes and guides personalized fitness/nutrition plans. Patients receive detailed data to optimize their weight loss strategies and monitor progress scientifically.
Phentermine Prescriptions
Phentermine is a prescription medication that reduces appetite and boosts metabolism. Combined with dietary changes and exercise, it supports short-term weight loss for patients with obesity. Our providers monitor usage to ensure safe, effective outcomes aligned with individual health goals.
GLP-1/GIP Therapy
Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) targets hunger hormones to reduce calorie intake. Administered weekly, this FDA-approved injection promotes significant weight loss when paired with lifestyle modifications. Patients experience prolonged satiety, making adherence to low-calorie diets more manageable.
Testosterone Replacement
Topical bioidentical testosterone treatments address low T symptoms in men. By restoring hormone balance, patients often see improved energy, muscle mass, and libido. Regular monitoring ensures optimal dosing and minimizes potential side effects during weight management efforts.
Vitamin Injections
Lipotropic and B12 injections support fat metabolism and energy production. These supplements enhance liver function and complement weight loss regimens by addressing nutritional deficiencies. Patients report increased vitality and improved exercise tolerance when combined with balanced diets.

So disappointing. While the program seemed to work ok, because it is very strong medicine, I was completed tricked into the ongoing expense and scammed out of a $100 consultation fee. When I signed up they automatically signed me up for a follow up session at the end, then when I had this last appointment they said it meant I was signing back up for another 3 weeks. I am dealing with family issues and must be out of town which I explained but they didn't care, and said I would have to wean off the meds so telling me at the begining I could do this 3 weeks at a time and choose to sign up

I am feeling so annoyed right now with this place. As a previous poster said, the doctor is a pill- pusher. Even when I told him I already took one of the medications that he wanted to give me, he still gave it to me. He told me exercise would not really help, just to walk. His advice was to not eat at all if I wasn't hungry and I suspect says the same thing to every one of his " patients". His big advice? Don't use olive oil. What Im most annoyed about are the excessive fees. I have yet to figure out how a follow up visit could cost the exact same as an initial visit. So I

Excellent results and outstanding doctor and staff. I weighed 150lbs which is too much for my 5' frame. I ate less and did modified activities to lose the weight and I was able to lose 12lbs with diet and exercise, but then I wasn't able to shed anymore weight. I was at wits end because I never had a weight problem in my life and this was the first time I could not lose it. So I came to this practice and was greeted warmly and professionally. The nursing assistant spoke to me kindly and allayed my fears while she was taking my weight and vitals. When I went in to see the doctor, he

I went there in September 2016 and I noticed that almost everyone in the waiting room was Hispanic. Even the majority of the staff was Hispanic. Okay cool, I am thinking maybe the doctor is Hispanic? Let me just see what is going on here. However, the customer service was extremely good. The front desk young lady was very friendly and cheerful, and the nurses or medical assistants were very friendly. I did notice that there was this white woman who seemed to be in charge of the office staff (probably his wife) who wasn't talking so nice to the front office staff. The doctor, Dr. Wolins wasn
