The Problem With Generic Weight Loss

Weight loss is more complex than willpower alone

Many patients try diets, apps, supplements, or short-term programs without understanding what is happening medically. Weight can be affected by metabolism, medications, hormones, sleep, stress, medical conditions, and long-term habits.
A physician-led approach helps evaluate the bigger picture before creating a plan.

Dr. Marina Gafanovich helps patients approach weight management with structure, medical insight, and realistic support. Your plan may include health assessment, lab review, lifestyle guidance, risk-factor management, and prescription options when medically appropriate.
