5035 Mayfield Rd, Suite 100Westlake
25200 Center Ridge Rd, Suite 1100A physician-led medical weight loss program in Cleveland built on medication, nutrition, movement, hormones, sleep, and coaching. One comprehensive subscription, not a prescription in isolation.
The medical weight loss program
A physician-led program that treats the whole picture, not just the prescription. It begins with real data, body composition and metabolic testing, then builds a plan around you.
It is the comprehensive, evidence-based alternative to med spas and online dispensaries, led by a board-certified surgeon and care team.
What’s included
Six services, delivered by one team, on one schedule, and reassessed as your body changes.
Monthly visits with Dr. Karas: evaluation and treatment of weight related medical conditions, medication management, and physician supervision of your diet and exercise program.
Monthly visits with our nutrition educator. Evaluation for eating disorders and disordered eating patterns, a personalized diet plan, and frequent re-evaluation to keep it working as your body changes.
An in-office physical assessment analyzed by a physical therapist, who writes your Physical Activity and Exercise Prescription. Reassessed every 3 months.
Behavioral and mental health support for the habits, stress, and patterns behind the scale.
Testing and treatment for the hormonal and sleep factors that quietly stall weight loss.
Twice monthly health coaching to identify your barriers and implement the diet, exercise, behavioral, and lifestyle changes needed to reach your goals.
Measured, not guessed
We prescribe GLP-1s, but never alone. Body composition and metabolic testing at the start and every three months after, so the plan answers to data rather than to a scale.Dr. Linden Karas, MD, FACS
