Medically supervised weight loss is a doctor-led program that treats excess weight as the complex medical condition it is — not a willpower problem.
Instead of a one-size-fits-all app or a cash-only injection mill, you are cared for in person by a licensed physician who reviews your full health history, orders lab work, and designs a plan around your body, your other medications, and your goals. Medications like GLP-1s are just one tool — combined with nutrition, metabolic support, and consistent follow-up so the weight stays off.
At Serenite Medical & Spa in Dumfries, that care is personal and holistic. Because we are a full medical practice — not a drop-ship pharmacy — we can manage your blood pressure, blood sugar, thyroid, and hormones at the same visit, and we accept insurance instead of charging cash-only membership fees.
Is Medical Weight Loss Right for You?
Most adults qualify for a physician-supervised weight-loss program. You may be a candidate if you have:
- A BMI of 30 or higher, or
- A BMI of 27 or higher with a weight-related condition such as type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, sleep apnea, or PCOS
- Tried diet and exercise but hit a plateau or regained the weight
- A goal to lose 15 pounds or 100 pounds — programs are tailored to you
Not sure where you fall? A consultation with Dr. Bataille includes lab work and an honest assessment of whether medication, lifestyle support, or a combination is the safest path for you.
