ABOUT ME

During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many people have gained weight due to stress, overeating, lack of exercise etc. Unfortunately, obesity is one of the major risk factors for not only getting COVID-19, but also at risk of getting a more severe form, complications, or even death from COVID. As more and more people get vaccinated, America is getting ready to a more normal lifestyle. However, you cannot do so unless also lose the extra pounds on the body. TELE HEALTH NOW AVAILABLE FOR WEIGHT LOSS Given the current situation with the COVID-19 pandemic, telemedicine is now available for both existing and new patients where you can consult with us over the phone, with or without video. Program fee: As a concierge practice, our weight loss program always had a program fee of about $100.00 per month on top of insurance. In an effort to ease the burden, we reduced the fee for the patients for those that have insurance that we accept using tele-medicine option to $50.00 and there are no additional fees such as copays. For self-pay patients, the monthly telemedicine program fee is $100.00. How does it work? We offer both in person visits in our offices or telemedicine. For televisits, you need to have a scale, a home blood pressure monitor or check BP at a local pharmacy prior to the televisit. We will call in any prescription medications as appropriate to a local pharmacy. We also offer in person visits in the office as prior. Given obesity is a major risk factor for over 50 different medical problems including COVID-19, it is not only important but vital to stay at optimal health to stand a fighting chance with this virus.
