Step 2: Service
We utilize several treatment methods to get you the best results from your weight loss program. This can include nutrition optimization with our nutritionist, weight management medications such as semaglutide, and hormone optimization to regulate hormone imbalances. Just as there is no one reason for weight gain, there is no one solution for weight loss!

Step 3: Follow-Up
You’ll schedule periodic follow-up appointments to evaluate your progress, monitor for any side effects, and generally let us know how you’re doing. We want to know both your successes and your struggles to adjust and create a plan that best suits you. Our goal is to not only help you lose weight in a healthy and sustainable manner, but also to teach you how to maintain your weight once you reach your goal.

This dual board certification gives her a unique perspective, which was the impetus behind FeminologyMD.
“I wanted to create a center for women that resets the standard of what healthcare should be.”

Frequently Asked Questions About Medical Weight Loss in Dallas
- Who is a candidate for medical weight loss?
-
Anyone who is overweight or obese is a good candidate for medical weight loss in Dallas! For those who are already at or near their ideal weight and simply want to live a healthier lifestyle, <nutrition optimization> or <lifestyle coaching> may be a better fit for you.
- Will I gain weight again after I lose it?
-
Unlike a short-term diet plan, medical weight loss at FeminologyMD is a physician-directed weight management program in conjunction with a certified nutritionist that is based on sustainable scientific principles. Its intent is not to simply lower the number on the scale, but to help you implement lifelong wellness strategies. This helps you avoid gaining weight again or regaining the weight you lost, as long as you continue with the healthy habits we’ve taught you.
- Why am I gaining weight as I'm getting older?
-
As we age, our metabolism naturally slows down, so we don’t burn as many calories as we once did. This means you might be eating the same amount of food, but your body doesn’t burn it as effectively, resulting in weight gain. This is especially true with menopause, as hormonal changes decrease muscle mass and increase fat.
