Before Your First Visit

We want to get to know you and learn how we can assist with your health goals. You will need a referral from your primary care physician, and you must complete a pre-screening application. Then, our insurance team will verify your benefits and send you a quote outlining the price of services. Once these steps are complete, we will contact you to schedule your first appointment for a New Patient Clinic.

New Patient Clinic: What to Expect

A New Patient Clinic is a complete medical and behavioral health assessment to gather basic information including body mass index (BMI), diagnosed conditions related to your weight and assessment for conditions like high blood pressure, heart disease, sleep apnea, high cholesterol, diabetes and lifestyle or behavioral health-related conditions. It will include:

• Diagnostic testing such as a laboratory work-up, EKG, sleep study and cancer screenings
• Lifestyle assessment to identify specific barriers to weight loss and provide appropriate self-management tools to monitor progress and develop healthy coping skills
• Nutrition assessment to gauge current nutritional health, metabolism and body composition
• Physical assessment of heart health, muscle strength, flexibility, mobility and balance
• Diabetes education to learn the seven principles to managing your diabetes
• Group education to provide necessary skills for success with weight loss and weight maintenance
• Medications for weight loss (if indicated)
• Weight loss surgery (if indicated)
• Support groups

Once you complete the New Patient Clinic, our physician-led team will share a comprehensive summary of findings with you. Based on the findings, you and your team will develop a customized treatment plan to address your needs and health goals. 

Your team will monitor the following during your journey with the Memorial Weight Loss & Wellness Center:

• Effectiveness of your personalized treatment plan
• Personal satisfaction with your progress
• Health status
• Quality of life improvement
