The staff at Greater Orlando Medical Weight Loss knows that there are a lot of weight loss programs, gym memberships, and food oriented gimmicks out there. We recognize that permanent weight loss requires a multi-faceted approach that includes attention to individual medical issues and conditions.

   * Exercise recommendations

The professional staff of our weight loss clinic addresses the needs of the patient on an individual case-by-case basis.

Your individualized program begins on your first visit with a technologically sophisticated weigh-in and full body composition analysis, which accurately calculates metabolic activity, body fat and other vital measurements. This information helps to form the basis of your customized weight loss plan and daily caloric and nutritional intake requirements.
Our Programs integrate –

   * Nutrition and Medical counseling
   * Education on the role of genes and physiology
   * Education about environmental influences on your weight

You will receive a personal portfolio and weekly weight loss patient guides that will help educate and motivate you towards your target weight. You will learn why your body stores fat and how you will permanently maintain a healthy weight.

The education and guidance you receive throughout the weight loss process will provide you with the skills necessary to maintain your weight loss. The maintenance program uses sophisticated medical tools and continuing education to support you and prevent re-gain.
