Care That Makes a Difference
Hear from people whose lives have been transformed through our support.
Carla M.
"When I came to South Florida Med Group, I was exhausted—physically and emotionally. I had tried every diet under the sun, but the weight always came back. What changed here was the personal attention. They didn’t judge me. They looked at my labs, asked about my daily habits, and built a plan that felt realistic. I’m down 42 pounds, off two medications, and for the first time in years, I’m hopeful about my health."
Melissa D.
"I never thought weight loss was possible for me with my PCOS diagnosis and constant fatigue. But the team here didn’t treat me like a number—they listened. They helped me understand how my hormones were affecting everything and walked me through each step. Between the medication, meal guidance, and weekly check-ins, I’ve lost 30 pounds and my energy is finally coming back. I feel like I have my life back."
Anika T.
"I used to feel completely defeated after every failed diet—like something was wrong with me. At South Florida Med Group, they shifted the conversation from blame to understanding. We talked about emotional eating, my schedule, and even my sleep habits. With their help, I’ve made steady progress—not just physically, but mentally too. I’m 25 pounds down and, more importantly, I don’t feel alone in it anymore."
James R.
"As a father of three with a demanding job, I didn’t have time for complicated plans or judgment. What I found here was practical, science-based support. My provider walked me through Semaglutide, helped me reset my eating habits, and checked in regularly. I’ve lost nearly 40 pounds, and I’m no longer winded playing with my kids. It’s more than weight—it’s quality of life."
Rosa V.
"After years of struggling with high blood pressure and borderline diabetes, I knew I needed more than a ‘try harder’ plan. South Florida Med Group looked at my full health picture and made it manageable. I’ve lost 35 pounds, brought my blood sugar back into normal range, and feel more in control than I ever have. The support has been consistent and deeply respectful every step of the way."
Daniel C.
"I wasn’t looking for a quick fix—I needed something sustainable. I was hesitant about weight loss medications, but they explained everything clearly and tailored the dose to me. What really stood out was the level of support: nutrition guidance, goal tracking, encouragement when I hit plateaus. It wasn’t just a program—it was a partnership. I’m healthier, happier, and finally feel seen."

FAQ’s
Frequently Asked Questions?
What makes your weight loss program different from a typical diet plan?
.png)
Our program is medically supervised and fully personalized. We look beyond calories and workouts to address root causes—like hormones, chronic conditions, and emotional health. It's not a one-size-fits-all approach; it’s a care plan built around your body and your goals.
Do you use medications like Semaglutide or Tirzepatide?
Yes. When clinically appropriate, we offer GLP-1 medications (such as Semaglutide or Tirzepatide) to support weight loss. These are prescribed under close supervision and are paired with lifestyle guidance for safe, effective results.
Can I still lose weight if I’ve tried everything and nothing worked?
Absolutely. Many of our patients come to us feeling discouraged. We take a different approach—one that blends clinical expertise with compassion and ongoing support. With the right tools and consistent care, progress is possible.
How often will I see my provider?
You’ll meet regularly for check-ins, progress tracking, and plan adjustments. The frequency depends on your needs, but we stay closely involved to help you stay accountable and encouraged.
Is this program covered by insurance?
Many of the medical evaluations and follow-ups are covered by insurance. Medication coverage can vary by plan. Our team will help verify your benefits before you begin, so there are no surprises.
Can I do this program through telehealth?
Yes. We offer virtual visits for consultations, follow-ups, and ongoing coaching. It’s the same level of care—just more convenient for your schedule and lifestyle.
