Medical Weight Loss

A non-surgical option for patients

Providers at the Lakeland Weight Loss Center are committed to leading the way in minimally invasive weight loss solutions and helping patients achieve their weight loss goals. However, surgery may not be the best option for all patients.

The medical weight loss program provides patients with proactive management of diet, fitness, and healthy behaviors with the help of a dedicated team of providers. Medical weight loss is designed for patients who:

  • Have a BMI > 40
  • Have weight-related comorbidities (sleep apnea, diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, etc.)
  • Need to lose weight prior to an upcoming surgery

A referral is required. If you believe you would benefit from this program, contact your primary care provider. Please note it is the patient’s responsibility to verify whether their insurance provider will cover weight loss care prior to any services rendered. If you have additional questions, contact the Lakeland Weight Loss Center directly by calling 269.687.4673
