Medical Weight Loss Augusta, GA

Weight loss is something that nearly half of Americans struggle with. In fact, 49.1% of Americans tried to lose weight over a three year period, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It’s also estimated that more than 42% of Americans are obese - a number that rose roughly 13% in just 10 years.

At Perfect Health, those aren’t just numbers. Those are individuals and families looking to try to improve their health and reach their weight goals. Here, we understand the challenges you may face as you work to reach your goals. Weight loss is a journey we’ll take together.

Benefits of a medical weight loss program

It can be disheartening to learn that 95% of all diets fail. That’s why our approach to medical weight loss isn’t just a diet. It’s a medically-supervised program designed to work with your needs, goals and body.

The individuals we work with understand the need to lose weight. After all, a healthy weight:
  • Reduces your risk of diabetes, heart attack and stroke
  • Lowers your health care costs by nearly $1,500
  • May reduce your risk of cancer
  • Improves sleep
  • Strengthens relationships
  • Increases mobility
  • Decreases joint pain
  • Improves blood sugar levels
  • Boosts your confidences
  • Reduces back pain
  • Empowers you to participate in the activities you want to enjoy
Research also shows that losing just 10% of excess body fat can add more than 2 years to your life. Lose weight for yourself and your loved ones.
