At The Gurnee Weight Loss Center, Our personalized medical weight loss options are tailored to your specific weight loss needs. Our successful weight loss programs are based on the understanding of today’s most popular and scientifically based weight loss strategies: The right combination of medical supervision, personal lifestyle adjustments, weight loss coaching and, when necessary, the utilization of frequent high protein, low calorie meals throughout the day.
Getting started with your initial consultation
The Doctor will review your medical and weight history, discuss your short and long term goals, and with your weight loss coach, present to you the medical weight loss options that are right for you. Your visit may include: Full medical history, EKG, lab work, body composition analysis & physical exam. Through your body composition analysis, we can very accurately predict the amount of weight you can lose over a given period of time.
