Medically Supervised Weight Loss
At AIM, weight loss is guided by board-certified internal medicine physicians and supported by lifestyle modification and medication when appropriate.
Why Medical Supervision Matters
Weight loss treatments, including prescription medications, can significantly impact metabolism, cardiovascular health, hormones, and existing medical conditions. Without proper medical oversight, these treatments may carry serious risks.
At AIM, every weight loss plan is developed and monitored by internal medicine physicians who evaluate your full medical history, current medications, and overall health before recommending treatment. Our approach prioritizes safety, effectiveness, and long-term results, not quick fixes.
Unlike online or one-size-fits-all programs, our care is personal, medically guided, and continuously monitored.
Why Medical Supervision Matters
Our program is built on medical expertise, individualized care, and ongoing support.
Evaluation
We review your medical history, current health conditions, medications, and weight-related concerns to ensure a safe starting point.
Personalized Plan
Your physician develops a customized plan that may include nutrition guidance, lifestyle modifications, and medication when appropriate.
Ongoing Monitoring
Regular follow-ups allow us to track progress, manage side effects, adjust treatment, and support sustainable results.
Long-Term Support
We focus on lasting health improvements, metabolic balance, and weight maintenance, not temporary outcomes.
Medication & Treatment Options
When appropriate, prescription weight loss medications may be included as part of a comprehensive, medically supervised program.
All medications are prescribed only after careful evaluation and are closely monitored throughout treatment. Medication is never used alone and is always combined with lifestyle support, education, and physician oversight.
Our goal is to use medical tools responsibly, safely, and in a way that supports long-term success.
The Risks of Unsupervised Weight Loss Medications
Obtaining weight loss medications without proper medical supervision can increase the risk of complications, including:
-
Incorrect dosing or unsafe sourcing
-
Lack of monitoring for side effects
-
Drug interactions with existing medications
-
Undiagnosed or unmanaged medical conditions
-
Absence of long-term care planning
At AIM, patient safety and overall health are always the priority.
