Weight Management at Southern Primary Care

Q: Is this covered by insurance?

Coverage varies by plan. Our staff checks your benefits before your first visit.

Q: How much weight can I expect to lose?

It varies — but medically supervised programs typically achieve 5–15% body-weight loss in the first year, which is enough to meaningfully improve blood pressure, blood sugar and joint pain.

Sustainable weight care is medical care. We combine nutrition guidance, activity planning, and — when appropriate — medication support.

Why It Matters

Weight is shaped by metabolism, medications, sleep, and stress — not willpower alone. A medical program addresses the causes, which is why it works when diets haven’t.
