Obesity Treatment

What is obesity treatment?

Maintaining a healthy weight is critical for overall well-being. With obesity treatment, you work one-on-one with Dr. Suri and Dr. Chaudhary to make changes in your diet, lifestyle, and exercise habits to support better health. The program integrates the latest advancements in obesity medicine, including injectable GLP-1 therapies, to provide a comprehensive and effective approach to weight management.

The overall goal of your treatment is to achieve steady and consistent weight loss. Initially, this may consist of a three to five percent loss of your total weight.

Throughout the course of your plan, Dr. Suri and Dr. Chaudhary can monitor your progress and your health, making adjustments as necessary.

What is included in my obesity treatment program?

Each person has a unique obesity treatment program, tailored to their needs. For most people, this includes:

Bio-metabolic analysis

During your initial visit, Dr. Suri and Dr. Chaudhary assess your resting metabolic rate, your body fat percentage, and other factors that determine your caloric needs.

Comprehensive medical examination

Dr. Suri and Dr. Chaudhary go through your medical history and discusses the key components of the program. The consultation includes a comprehensive assessment of medical, nutritional, behavioral, and lifestyle factors to ensure Dr. Suri has a thorough understanding of your current health.

Lab work

You may also need standard lab tests, which include your blood count, comprehensive metabolic panel, thyroid profile, and lipid panel.

Electrocardiogram

An electrocardiogram (EKG) might be necessary, depending on your medical evaluation. This test evaluates the health of your heart.

GLP-1 Medications
If appropriate, Dr. Suri and Dr. Chaudhary may recommend GLP-1 receptor agonists, including semaglutide and tirzepatide. These injectable medications are designed to regulate appetite, enhance feelings of fullness, and improve blood sugar control, aiding in sustainable weight loss.

Meal and exercise plan

Your meal plan includes natural foods and meal replacement products. Dr. Suri and Dr. Chaudhary can also customize your plan for certain dietary preferences or needs. You also get recommendations for exercise that supports weight loss and overall health.
