For many people in Westchester County, White Plains, New Rochelle, Yonkers, Bronxville, NY, and the surrounding areas, losing weight is an important goal that will be beneficial to their health. Too often, a surgical option is recommended by other medical professionals, as well as other people in the patient’s life. However, a surgical option should really be the option of last resort, and our team at Gastroenterology of Hudson Valley has the approach of looking at other tools for medical weight loss. Surgery for weight loss brings along with it many potential complications that aren’t necessary. Talk with our team today about the different options for medical weight loss that are available to you.
Options That Aren’t as Invasive as Surgery
There are many options available that are nowhere near as invasive as a surgical option when it comes to medical weight loss. There are variety of medications on the market that may be of assistance in losing weight. With the help of our Doctor, you can choose a weight loss medication that our team can help monitor progress on and provide feedback on. These medications can also be quickly stopped or adjusted as needed based on the response of the patient.
Another option that we look at is called peptide therapy. With this therapy, we use specific peptides to enhance a patient’s metabolism, to help promote fat loss, as well as to improve energy levels. We will also help our patients to better understand nutrition, as well as exercise, and this combination can provide dramatic results without any of the side effects or complications from surgery.
Get The Support You Need To Succeed
Many times, those who need to lose weight don’t have the right tools to be successful. Working with our doctor and our team, we help to provide a variety of different tools to help our patients succeed and gain their own motivation to continue. Patients do not become overweight overnight, and they will not lose the weight overnight either, but with our non-surgical options, we can provide hope, support, as well as motivation to succeed.
The medical weight loss approach at Gastroenterology of Hudson Valley focuses on helping to change habits, while also providing additional tools, sometimes in the form of peptides or medications, that will lead to success in Westchester County, White Plains, New Rochelle, Yonkers, Bronxville, NY, and the surrounding areas.
