Our Approach to Weight Loss

We help patients with their weight goals through a physician-guided, specialized program utilizing a combination of fat-burning injections, as well as current FDA options of weight loss supplements including Phentermine and Contrive (prescription only), that help overall complement weight loss.



Our providers monitor the overall health of our patients through closely supervised weight management and counseling.

What is Physician-Assisted Weight Loss?

Losing weight the healthy way isn't easy. Physician-assisted weight loss gives you the diet and emotional support you need to lose weight without failure. In an era of eating high-calorie fatty and sugary foods, with more and more people putting on excess fat, physician-guided weight loss can help. At Good Samaritan, we are here to help you stay on track and reach your weight loss goals.

What Are the Benefits of Physician-Assisted Weight Loss?

Within the last few years, studies have shown the benefits of physician-assisted weight loss programs. Participants who stay in physician-assisted weight loss programs longer tend to lose more weight than participants who do not. Many participants lose as much as 10% of their body weight within a year, and it is very common for these programs to take place in a primary care facility as we have at Good Samaritan.

What to Expect

All of our weight loss management solutions are customized for each patient and their goals. In general, all of our programs begin with a consultation to discuss your weight loss journey and goals, and usually a physical exam to create a baseline, followed by regular check-ins.

Some of the options include:

Natural methods

We provide guidance for those looking to lose weight the natural way. We'll create a program that works for you. Some of our past recommended programs include:

• Intermittent fasting: This is an eating pattern where you cycle between periods of eating and fasting. It's more about when you eat, and less about what you eat.
• A modified version of Keto: The Ketogenic diet is a high-fat, adequate-protein, low-carbohydrate diet that forces the body to burn fats rather than carbohydrates.
• Counting calories: The calorie count is an easy measure of energy. It is commonly used by dieters to regulate the intake of calories to control weight gain.
• Diet change: Depending on your current diet, a simple switch can make a huge difference. The change might include eating less of one thing and more of another, drinking more water, or planning different meals.
