Medical weight loss is a physician-supervised program designed to help individuals lose weight safely and effectively. Unlike commercial weight loss plans, medical weight loss programs are tailored to each individual’s unique health needs and weight loss goals. At Everest Regenerative Medicine, our medical weight loss programs often include a combination of dietary guidance, exercise plans, behavioral therapy, and, when appropriate, medications or other medical interventions.
One of the most significant advantages of medical weight loss programs is the personalized care you receive. Our healthcare providers take the time to understand your medical history, lifestyle, and weight loss goals to create a customized plan that works for you.
Medical weight loss programs are designed to be safe and effective. Under the supervision of a healthcare provider, you can be confident that your weight loss journey will be monitored closely, reducing the risk of complications.
Many people struggle with maintaining weight loss after completing a commercial diet program. Medical weight loss programs focus on long-term success by teaching you sustainable lifestyle changes and providing ongoing support.
Medical weight loss programs address all aspects of weight loss, including diet, exercise, and behavioral changes. This comprehensive approach increases your chances of achieving and maintaining your weight loss goals.

Before seeking medical weight loss treatment, consider implementing some healthy habits at home:
Focus on a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Avoid processed foods, sugary drinks, and excessive amounts of unhealthy fats.
Incorporate regular physical activity into your routine. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week, such as brisk walking, swimming, or cycling.
Practice mindful eating by paying attention to hunger and fullness cues, eating slowly, and avoiding distractions during meals.
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and support overall health.
Ensure you get enough sleep each night, as poor sleep can contribute to weight gain and hinder weight loss efforts.
At Everest Regenerative Medicine, we follow a thorough process to determine if you are a candidate for medical weight loss:
During your initial consultation, our healthcare providers will review your medical history, current health status, and weight loss goals. This information helps us understand your unique needs and challenges.
We conduct a comprehensive assessment, which may include blood tests, body composition analysis, and other diagnostic tests to evaluate your overall health and identify any underlying conditions that may affect your weight loss journey.
Based on the information gathered during the consultation and assessment, we create a personalized medical weight loss plan tailored to your needs. This plan may include dietary recommendations, exercise guidelines, behavioral therapy, and, if necessary, medications or other medical interventions.
We provide ongoing support and monitoring throughout your weight loss journey. Regular follow-up appointments allow us to track your progress, make necessary adjustments to your plan, and provide encouragement and guidance.
We offer educational resources and tools to help you make informed decisions about your health and maintain your weight loss long-term. These resources may include nutritional counseling, exercise classes, and support groups.
