Proven weight loss program now available at new Dunwoody location.
Sandy Springs and Dunwoody residents now have convenient access to a powerful, proven system to help them lose weight while improving their overall health. Medi-Weightloss®, a fast-growing company with more than 80 locations nationwide, opened its first Atlanta-area location in September 2015 at 5475 Chamblee Dunwoody Road in Dunwoody. They can be reached at 678) 379-1300.
Medi-Weightloss® offers a physician-supervised, individually tailored weight loss system known as “The One That Works! ®” for its comprehensive approach to weight management and established record of success – Medi-Weightloss patients have lost over 3 million pounds nationwide! Medi-Weightloss patients experience one-on-one education and coaching on nutrition, behavior modifications, and exercise to help patients lose weight and keep it off for a lifetime. So far, patients in Dunwoody have lost over 800 pounds!
Patients at the Dunwoody location will receive care under the supervision of Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner, Jennifer Clair. “In my experience, I’ve seen more overweight and obese people every day, and I know the impact that has on their health. That’s why I wanted to become part of the Medi-Weightloss team,” Clair said. “I feel the Medi-Weightloss program really provides the right tools to help people lose weight safely and keep it off. It works because it incorporates a medically guided weight loss program with nutrition, exercise and accountability.”
Another key member of the Medi-Weightloss team, Medical Assistant Sharon Reid, explained how the system works for new patients. “Because everyone’s needs are different, we start with a complete evaluation by medical staff to determine the program that’s best tailored for each person specifically. We like to focus primarily on helping patients achieve a healthy lifestyle through education, nutritional counseling and behavior modification–research shows that is the best way to achieve lasting weight loss success,” she said. Reid emphasized that an assessment is provided free of charge, with no obligation. “However, once people see what we can help them accomplish, most do become Medi-Weightloss patients,” she added. “Patients lose an average of 10 pounds the first week, and up to 20 pounds the first month. They can achieve a total weight loss of 20 to 300 pounds depending on their goals. Whether you want to lose 10 pounds for a high school reunion or 150 pounds for critical health reasons, we can definitely help you get there.”
Once an individualized program has been established, the Medi-Weightloss system includes weekly one-on-one consultations focusing on nutrition, lifestyle and exercise. Education is provided on how to lose weight in the real world using real food, without the need for pre-packaged meals. Once their weight loss goals have been achieved, patients learn how to keep it off for life through a specialized Wellness Phase.
In addition to clinically proven weight loss programs, Medi-Weightloss offers specialized weight loss programs for adolescents and diabetics, as well as free Worksite Wellness Workshops for companies in the area.
Founded in 2005, Medi-Weightloss has built its programs on a solid foundation of research and supporting technology. The company also has developed a line of Signature Supplements and Products to help patients achieve optimal nutrition, as well as a proprietary Signature Patient Website that gives patients 24/7 access to resources, recipes, and more.
