Medical weight loss is a physician-supervised approach to weight management that combines medical expertise with personalized plans. It often includes nutritional counseling, exercise recommendations, behavioral therapy, and, when appropriate, prescription medications to assist with weight reduction.
2. How does medical weight loss differ from other weight loss programs?
Unlike commercial diets or over-the-counter supplements, medical weight loss programs are tailored to the individual’s health status and needs. They are overseen by healthcare professionals who monitor progress and adjust treatments to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Weight loss varies by individual, depending on factors like starting weight, adherence to the program, and metabolic rate. On average, patients may lose 5-10% of their body weight over six months.

The duration varies based on individual goals and progress. Some patients may achieve their desired weight in a few months, while others may participate in the program for a year or longer for sustained weight management.
