Obesity Medicine & Medical Weight Management

Evidence-Based Medical Treatment for Weight and Metabolism

Obesity is a complex, chronic disease driven by biology, not just willpower. The Obesity Medicine category on ServiceOrca connects patients with board-certified physicians (MDs/DOs) who specialize in metabolic health. This is not a fitness boot camp; it is a clinical service where doctors use science—including pharmacotherapy, nutrition, and behavioral intervention—to treat the root causes of weight gain and associated comorbidities.

Clinical Weight Management Services

Medical weight loss involves comprehensive diagnostics and ongoing monitoring. The professionals on our platform offer structured medical services:

• Metabolic uation: Comprehensive blood panels to assess insulin resistance, thyroid function, and hormonal imbalances affecting weight.
• Medication Management: The prescription and monitoring of anti-obesity medications (e.g., GLP-1 agonists like Semaglutide/Tirzepatide) to ensure safety and effectiveness.
• Body Composition Analysis: Medical-grade tracking (DEXA or Bioimpedance) to monitor fat loss vs. muscle preservation.
• Comorbidity Management: Treating weight-related conditions such as Sleep Apnea, PCOS, Hypertension, and Type 2 Diabetes concurrently.
• Pre & Post-Bariatric Care: Medical optimization before surgery and long-term management of nutritional status after surgery.
• Medical Nutrition Therapy: Doctor-supervised dietary plans tailored to specific metabolic needs.

Physician-Led Care and Safety

Weight management medication requires strict medical supervision to manage side effects and dosage. ServiceOrca’s service-centric model allows you to uate a physician based on their clinical focus. You can distinguish between a doctor specializing in 'Menopause and Metabolism' and one focused on 'Diabetes Management.'

We emphasize licensed healthcare. Unlike generic weight loss clinics, the providers listed here are medical doctors. Whether you need help navigating insurance for medication or a comprehensive plan to reverse metabolic syndrome, ServiceOrca connects you with the specialized medical expertise needed for sustainable health.
