Medical weight management in Fort Lee, NJ and by telehealth
Physician-led care for women and men. We treat the reasons weight is hard to lose, not just the number on the scale.
Weight is not a willpower problem
If you're eating well and moving and the weight still isn't shifting, something else is going on. Metabolism, hormones, muscle loss, sleep, stress, and medications all play a part. My job is to find which ones apply to you.
What your plan may include
A full medical assessment. Your history, medications, labs, sleep, and eating patterns, reviewed in a 60-minute first visit.
Weight loss medication, when appropriate. Including GLP-1 medications for patients who are candidates. We talk through benefits, side effects, and what happens long term before you start.
Nutrition and exercise guidance that protects muscle. Losing weight too fast or without enough protein and strength work costs you muscle. We plan around keeping it.
InBody tracking. In-office visits include an InBody body composition scan, so we can see fat, muscle, and water change over time.
Regular follow-up. We adjust doses, troubleshoot side effects, and plan for keeping the weight off.
Who this is for
Women whose weight changed in perimenopause or menopause
Men carrying weight around the middle, with rising blood pressure, blood sugar, or cholesterol
Anyone who has lost and regained weight and wants a medical plan this time
Common questions
Will I be on medication forever?
It depends on your body and your goals. We discuss the long-term plan before you start, not after.
Can this be done by telehealth?
Yes, for residents of New Jersey, New York, Florida, Vermont, and Hawaii.
Does insurance cover the medication?
Coverage varies by plan. Prescriptions go through your pharmacy benefits, and we'll help with the paperwork your plan requires.
