At Dr. Rogers Centers, we specialize in providing personalized medical weight loss solutions that cater to your unique needs and goals.

This guide will explore the various aspects of medical weight loss and how Dr. Rogers Centers can help you achieve lasting results.

 

What is Medical Weight Loss?

 

Medical weight loss involves using evidence-based medical practices to help individuals lose weight under the supervision of healthcare professionals. Unlike fad diets or over-the-counter supplements, medical weight loss programs are tailored to the individual's health needs, ensuring safe and effective weight loss.

 

Key Components of Medical Weight Loss at Dr. Rogers Centers

 

  • Comprehensive Evaluation:
        • Medical History: We deeply analyze your medical records to design a safe and effective weight loss program. 
        • Physical Examination: A thorough physical examination helps identify any underlying health issues that may affect your weight loss journey.
        • Laboratory Tests: Blood and other diagnostic tools are used to assess your metabolic health and identify potential barriers to weight loss.

     

  • Personalized Nutrition Plans:
        • Dietary Counseling: Our registered dietitians provide tailored dietary advice to ensure you consume the right nutrients while reducing caloric intake.
        • Meal Planning: Customized meal plans help you make healthier food choices that support your weight loss goals.

     

  • Behavioral Therapy:
        • Counseling: Addressing emotional and psychological factors contributing to weight gain is essential for long-term success.
        • Support Groups: Group therapy and support groups provide community and motivation.

     

  • Exercise Programs:
        • Fitness Assessment: A fitness assessment helps design an exercise program suitable for your fitness level and weight loss goals.
        • Personal Training: Personalized training sessions ensure you perform exercises correctly and effectively.

     

  • Medical Interventions:
      • Medications: Medications may be prescribed to aid in weight loss. At Dr. Rogers Centers, we utilize FDA-approved medications like compounded GLP-1 or WEGOVY, which has shown promising results in weight management.

     

    Compounded GLP-1 

     

    Compounded GLP-1  is a medication initially developed to treat type 2 diabetes. It mimics the hormone GLP-1, which regulates appetite and insulin levels. Recent studies have shown that WEGOVY can significantly aid in weight loss, making it a valuable tool in medical weight loss programs.

     

    Benefits of Compounded GLP-1

     

    1. Constructive Weight Loss: Clinical trials have demonstrated significant weight loss in individuals taking compounded GLP-1.
    2. Enriched Metabolic Health: WEGOVY helps regulate blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
    3. Appetite Control: WEGOVY makes adhering to a reduced-calorie diet easier by reducing hunger and increasing feelings of fullness.

     

    Managing Nausea with Medication

     

    One of the common side effects of compounded GLP-1  is nausea. At Dr. Rogers Centers, we understand the importance of managing side effects to ensure the success of your weight loss journey. Here are some strategies we employ to manage nausea with medication:

     

    1. Gradual Dose Increase: Starting with a lower dose and gradually increasing it helps your body adjust to the medication.
    2. Dietary Adjustments: Eating smaller, more frequent meals and avoiding high-fat or spicy foods can help reduce nausea.
    3. Hydration: We suggest staying well-hydrated to alleviate nausea associated with WEGOVY.
    4. Medication Timing: Taking the medication when nausea is less likely to interfere with daily activities can be beneficial.
