You really feel you’re in good hands with a Dr. who genuinely cares about you and your goals. And prices are very reasonable! You can’t go wrong at Elysium.”

What Is Medical Weight-Loss
As we go through life, there are a variety of factors that can contribute to fluctuations in weight. Age, genetics, and lifestyle are but a few of the factors that come into play when looking at weight gain.
We all want to be a healthy weight by watching cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar. Dr. Delaney will evaluate your weight, overall health concerns, and discuss your goals. From there, a plan will be made to help you reach your desired weight.
Our methods include an exercise plan, discussing portion size, evaluating stress levels, and improving sleep hygiene.
It is important that you do not lose or gain too much weight too quickly. We want to help you safely achieve your goal carefully and naturally. It is also critical to learn new behavior modification habits that will help you maintain your goal weight once you reach it.
Why choose Medical Weight-Loss
Dr. Delaney is extensively trained in the medical science of weight loss and obesity medicine. He can treat your weight within the context of your total health profile. He has the tools and resources that other programs do not, such as the ability to prescribe medications that will assist in your weight loss progress. Second, our program does not focus on just one aspect of weight loss. He takes a comprehensive, holistic approach that includes food, exercise, and behavioral modification. He will not only help you lose weight in a healthy way but also, teach you how to live a healthier lifestyle for keeping the weight off long-term. He also recommends CoolSculpting technology to jump start your weight loss journey.
What does Medical Weight-Loss fix
Medical weight loss is the best way to lose pounds with faster results than other methods such as difficult or exhausting diet programs. It has been proven that people who go on just a diet and exercise program cannot keep it up, resulting in gaining back all of their lost weight and sometimes more. Medical weight loss helps you jump start your metabolism, so you feel full longer, reduce food cravings and regulate calorie intake.
Medical Weight-Loss FAQ’s
Is the weight loss program safe if I have diabetes or any other medical conditions?
Yes, the program is safe for people with diabetes, hypertension, and other medical problems. Dr. Delaney is board certified in Obesity Medicine and he will work with you and your weight loss goals. In addition, a weight loss program can help alleviate many of the other conditions that result from obesity, including arthritis, coronary artery disease, sleep apnea, persistent lymph edema, lower extremity edema, hypertension, and high cholesterol.
How does the program work?
Because you are unique, Dr. Delaney will create a personalized plan just for you based on your specific attributes, goals, needs and weight loss challenges. It is structured with the following four components – food, activity, behavior, and medication. The food and behavioral components are core to the program; activity and medication prescriptions are suggested when the doctor feels they are safe and appropriate. It is important to understand that there is no ‘one size fits all’ with the medical weight loss program. In addition, he uses the CoolSculpting technology to jump start your weight loss journey.
How is the Medical Weight Loss program different from other programs?
There are several primary differences you will find compared to other weight loss programs. First, our program is physician-supervised. Dr. Delaney is extensively trained in the medical science of weight loss and obesity medicine. He can treat your weight within the context of your total health profile. He has the tools and resources that other programs do not, such as the ability to prescribe medications that will assist in your weight loss progress. Second, our program does not focus on just one aspect of weight loss. We take a comprehensive, holistic approach that includes food, exercise, stress reduction, sleep hygiene and behavioral modification. Weight loss and weight maintenance is a way of life. Dr. Delaney understands this and will be there to support you every step of the way in achieving your goals. Lastly, we use CoolSculpting technology to jump start your weight loss journey.
Do I have to take weight loss medication?
There is no medication requirement. However, if you consent, Dr. Delaney can prescribe a safe appetite suppressant to keep hunger at bay as you lose weight. He can also review any current medications you might be taking for another condition that may be interfering with your weight loss efforts. (This would be done in collaboration with the prescribing doctor.)
Do I have to Exercise?
There is no requirement for exercise, but research consistently shows that exercise increases the likelihood of maintaining a healthy weight. Should you decide to pursue an exercise routine, Dr. Delaney will make recommendations based on your body composition and physical abilities.
How quickly can I expect to see results?
Though it depends on your specific circumstances and health concerns, most patients lose weight within the first two weeks and continue to reduce their weight as they continue with the plan and counseling advice. If you choose CoolSculpting treatments, you will see results from those sessions as early as 4 weeks and continuing on for 3 – 4 months.
What if I only need to lose 10-15 pounds?
The program is not simply for people who are overweight but also for anyone who is unhappy or feels unhealthy due to their weight. Dr. Delaney will tell you if you do not need to lose weight or if you do not qualify for the weight loss programs for any reason. His first priority is your overall health and wellbeing.
