TESTIMONIALS
L.R.
"I am having the most incredible experience with Dr. Gilliatte guiding me with my weight-loss journey since February 2024. With the help and advice of Dr. Gilliatte, I have lost a total of 69 pounds and I am still going strong. She said “If you want to lose weight, do everything I tell you.” The first step was to focus on my diet for five months, then she encouraged me to incorporate exercising. I committed to a gym membership for weight training and cardio in August of 2024. I have been working out faithfully five days a week for one hour each day. There have been no drugs involved in my weight loss. The results of diet and exercise with Dr. Gilliatte’s guidance speak for themselves. This journey has brought about a positive transformation in my life. I feel energized and confident, and I am motivated to continue. Dr. Gilliatte has monitored my progress and encouraged me every step of the way. She has truly been an inspiration."

What Is Medical Weight Loss?
Medical weight loss is a science-based, physician-led approach to achieving and maintaining a healthy weight. Dr. Michelle Gilliatte, who is board-certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine, brings her expertise to address the unique challenges of weight management, focusing on the root causes of weight gain and creating tailored strategies for long-term success. Unlike fad diets or quick fixes, this program focuses on understanding the underlying factors contributing to weight gain and creating a personalized plan to address them.
Why It Works
Weight gain is complex. Our root-cause approach looks deeper—addressing inflammation, liver function, insulin resistance, stress, and more. By treating what’s beneath the surface, we help you unlock lasting, sustainable results.
How Does It Work?
Our program begins with a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Gilliatte. During this visit, we will:
- Perform a Full Body Composition Scan: This detailed analysis assesses body composition, including visceral fat levels, to provide a clear picture of your health.
- Set Goals and Discuss Expectations: Together, we will outline realistic and achievable weight loss goals based on your unique needs and lifestyle.
- Conduct Lab Work: Dr. Gilliatte will recommend and review lab tests to identify any underlying health issues, such as hormonal imbalances, gut health concerns, or liver health abnormalities, that may impact your weight loss journey.
- Develop an Individualized Plan: Every program is tailored to you. Whether it involves nutritional adjustments, exercise plans, medications, or optimizing hormonal health, we’ll create a strategy designed for your success.
What to Expect
- Bi-Weekly Meetings: Regular follow-ups every two weeks allow us to monitor progress, adjust the plan as needed, and provide ongoing support.
- Minimum Commitment: A minimum 12-week commitment ensures you have enough time to establish new habits, see measurable results, and build momentum for long-term success.
- Comprehensive Care: Weight loss isn’t just about “calories in, calories out.” This concept oversimplifies the complex factors that contribute to weight gain and loss. Dr. Gilliatte’s holistic approach considers additional elements such as hormonal imbalances, gut health, stress levels, and lifestyle habits, which all play a critical role in achieving sustainable weight loss. Dr. Gilliatte takes a holistic approach, addressing factors such as gut health, liver function, hormonal optimization, and more. For example, optimizing gut health can improve nutrient absorption and reduce inflammation, while supporting liver function aids in metabolizing fats and detoxifying the body. Hormonal optimization ensures that imbalances, such as thyroid dysfunction or insulin resistance, are corrected to enhance metabolism and energy levels. to achieve optimal health and sustainable weight loss.
