Medical Weight Loss

Physician supervised Medical Weight Loss Program

Obesity is emotionally traumatic to the individual. A lot of fad diets and unnecessary shots take advantage of it and promise quick fix. At Meridian Springs Aesthetics, we approach it using evidence based medicine with diet & nutrition guidance. 

We want to help you manage your weight and live a healthy fulfilling lifestyle that you deserve.

Our wellness program recommendations include regular consultations for

  • Physical examinations
  • Blood work
  • Diet and exercise program
  • Chiropractic
  • Supplementation and medication education

We recommend monitoring the following for prevention

  • Cholesterol and triglyceride checks
  • Blood cell counts
  • Chemistry and electrolyte serum examination
  • Blood pressure screening
  • Weight management
  • Smoking cessation
  • EKG

 

  • Diabetes screening
  • Colon cancer screening (once every 10 years starting at age 40)
  • Hormone replacement therapy (as needed)
  • Prostate screening (men only - once at age 35 and every two years from ages 40-50 and early thereafter)

First of all, there’s no “lose weight overnight” pill. Nevertheless, we offer a program that can produce impressive results in a relatively short amount of time. Our Weight Management program is based on a low-carbohydrate, high-fat approach. This method of Weight Management is proven to maintain muscle while reducing fat. Patients are seen monthly by Dr. Sleiman and provided full care & support by our professional staff. When indicated, a prescription of appetite suppressant may be included. Even though you are overweight, you may not qualify for the appetite suppressant. You cannot take the appetite suppressant if you are pregnant, are breast-feeding, or have glaucoma, an overactive thyroid gland, or uncontrolled high blood pressure. However, you may still participate in our diet and exercise program which includes B-12 injections, Lipotropic injections, protein shakes, LIPO BC pills, and other products that we offer.

On your first visit, you will have your blood drawn to check your liver, kidney, and thyroid function. You will also have a medical consultation, B12 Injections and a diet menu. If all preliminary tests and your screening physical exam are within normal limits, and we find no contraindications, we will provide you with a set of weight loss rules, lists of approved and non-approved foods, and, when indicated, a prescription for the appetite suppressant. In some instances, additional studies such as an EKG, will be necessary to ensure patient safety and medical thoroughness. These studies are not included in the initial fee.
