What are the benefits of medical weight loss?
Medical weight loss increases your chance of getting excess weight off. It reduces your risk of developing certain diseases like cancer, Type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. You often experience improvements in blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar without taking as many medications.
Additional benefits of medical weight loss include improved sexual function, a longer, healthier life, more energy, improvements in obstructive sleep apnea, and increases in mood and self-confidence.
What should I expect during medical weight loss?
If you’re unhappy with your body weight or have chronic disease risk factors, you can benefit from medical weight loss with help from the experts at Superior Physical Medicine. During your first appointment, your provider reviews your goals and medical history, weighs you, checks your vital signs, and completes a physical exam.

- Weight loss medications
- Medications that manage diseases

They follow up with you regularly to weigh you, monitor your health, and make changes to your treatment plan as needed until you reach your goal weight.
