How much weight can I lose with these treatments?
Mounjaro/Ozempic typically result in 15-25% body weight loss, while bariatric surgery achieves 60-80% excess weight loss. Results depend on adherence to diet, exercise, and follow-up care recommendations.
What treatments are offered at this weight loss clinic?
We offer non-surgical medical weight loss with GLP-1 injections such as Mounjaro and Ozempic, alongside dietary and lifestyle guidance, and bariatric surgery (sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass) for patients who meet candidacy criteria.
Do I need bariatric surgery or can I use GLP-1 injections?
It depends on your BMI, health conditions and goals. Most patients with overweight or mild obesity are candidates for GLP-1 injections first. Surgery is generally considered at higher BMI levels or when medical treatment has not been effective. A consultation will clarify which path suits you.
