Medically Supervised Weight Loss Program
-Initial Appointment
Our program begins with a 1
hour face to face consult with Dr. Goldstone. At that time, she will perform an
in depth medical history and physical exam. She will also review and explain
your lab results to you. After ascertaining your needs and physical status Dr.
Goldstone will design a complete program emphasizing a lifestyle, not just a
quick fix (fad) diet. The program generally includes a customized diet,
exercise, behavior modification, stress management techniques and neutraceutical
supplementation. If medication to control appetite is warranted (i.e.
Phentermine), Dr. Goldstone may prescribe that as well.
This is a
comprehensive ten (10) week program The program cost of $878.00 dollars,
includes your initial lab tests. These tests include screening for
metabolic syndrome, diabetes, heart, kidney and liver disease,
cholesterol,
lipids and blood count. In addition Dr. goldstone tests all the major hormones
including cortisol which tends to be unbalanced in people with difficulty losing
weight and maintaining weight loss. The program fees includes the initial visit
and the nine consecutive weekly visits. The program fee is due at the time of
your initial lab draw. Prescribed pharmaceutical supplements and appetite
control medications are not included in the program fee. This program is a cash
program, we do not accept any forms of insurance for our weight loss
program.
