Why is the SI Medical Medical Weight Loss program so effective?
Individual Attention
A relationship with your physician forms with your first visit. An in-depth evaluation is the first step toward your personalized program. What makes our clinic unique is that we look at you as an individual. Through proper testing, detailed consultations, and monthly follow-ups, we determine: (1) The cause of your weight gain, (2) What health conditions might interfere with your ability to lose weight (for example, medications that you are taking, low thyroid levels, high glucose levels, etc.), and (3) what will best work for you given your individual situation.
Safe & Effective Medical Weight Loss
Your doctor will be able to tell you how much of the weight you are losing is from fat, water or muscle, and adjust your program accordingly for optimum results.
Realistic & Accurate Expectations
Your doctor can accurately predict the amount of weight you can lose over time using your body composition and other measurements. This is an important part of safe and healthy weight loss.
Personal Support from Your Physician
Your SI Medical Weight Loss physician is extensively trained and highly qualified to share valuable, individualized insights that can guide your approach to daily life and maintaining your weight loss and health goals.
Exclusive Strategies and Tools
Physician-directed programs offer strategies unavailable to non-physician weight loss programs. Your physician is committed to helping you lose weight quickly and safely and to help you keep the weight off long-term.
Natural Appetite Suppressants & Prescription Products
We offer natural appetite suppressants and prescription products, such as Phentermine, that are both safe and effective. We offer natural health supplements that are pharmaceutical grade and clinically proven. The natural supplements help solve problems of poor sleep, high stress, anxiety, cravings for sugar and carbohydrates, fat loss, unhealthy cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, irregular and/or difficult periods, and other health-related problems that can affect your weight as well as your health.
Personalized Program Planning
Our program includes confidential physician visits with a written prescription. Also, you will receive nutritional and exercise counseling with BMI (Body Mass Index), body composition, and other measurements. Our program is what you need to start you down the path to personal success.
A BMI reading is one way to determine whether or not a person is overweight. However, it is not the only factor used in deciding if a person should begin a diet program. Your BMI is calculated using your weight and height. BMI does not distinguish between body fat and fat free mass.
Fat free mass is made up of muscle, bones, and water. This number helps determine you metabolism. The higher your fat free mass, the higher your metabolism. Knowing this will help you to maintain your goal weight once you reach it.
Our state-of-the-art Body Composition Scale is one of the tools we use to customize the program for you. Using BIA (Bioelectric Impedance Analysis) technology, the scale will give you an exact measurement of:
- Body Mass Index (BMI): Your weight divided by height in M2.
- Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): The total energy expended by the body to maintain normal functions.
- Fat Percentage: Percent of body weight that is adipose tissue or fat.
- Fat Free Mass (FFM): Tissue such as lean muscle, bone, etc.
- Total Body Water (TBW): Body weight consisting of water. Generally 50% to 70% of body weight.
- Impedance: The body's resistance to electrical current. Muscle is a conductor and adipose tissue is a resistor. As your muscle increases your impedance decreases.
- Desirable Range Healthy range for "fat percentage" and "fat mass".

How the Medical Weight Loss Program Works
At your initial consultation, our team of medical professionals will learn about your current weight loss goals, any medications you may be taking, review your profile, and discuss your personal motivations.
Using this information, our medical professionals will then prescribe a plan and personalize it to your specific needs and preferences.
We will help you gain control of your weight and your life. Our program provides a special opportunity to those who have struggled with other programs and have not had the success that they have been looking for. Our goal is to accomplish weight loss in order to alleviate anxiety and frustration over past failed attempts. We provide you with eating guidelines and teach you healthy habits and skills, which will in turn facilitate a lifetime of successful weight management.
