Program Overview

Medislim is a medical practice that specializes in weight management. We offer a comprehensive program tailored to fit your personal needs. Lab work is obtained on each new patient at your first visit. This includes a comprehensive metabolic profile, which assesses vital organ function, electrolytes, a complete blood count to check your hemoglobin, iron levels, a lipid profile to check your cholesterol, triglyceride levels and a thyroid function test.

At your first visit you will complete a new patient profile, lifestyle and nutritional and health history. We will check your blood pressure, obtain your weight and perform a body composition analysis. After the test the doctor will complete a medical history and examination. We will then work with you to customize a weight loss and management program based on your lifestyle and food preferences and goals. Your program may include prescription appetite suppressants, fat blockers, or other appropriate medication. We do not prescribe amphetamines. Your initial visit will be approximately one hour. Your first follow up visit will be in one week and you will continue to be seen on a weekly basis. These visits are 15-30 minutes in length.
