About us
At Medi-Weightloss®, our mission is not only to help patients achieve their weight loss goals but to help them achieve long-term wellness. We understand that wellness encompasses much more than weight loss and that is why we are always working to ensure that all aspects of our patients’ health are improved while on our program. In addition to offering individualized physician-supervised weight loss programs for adults, Medi-Weightloss® also offers specialized weight loss programs for adolescents.
Medi-Weightloss® has been voted the best weight loss program in the Indianapolis area multiple times.
We are seeking a part-time medical director to work four hours per week in a role with great flexibility.
This is an opportunity to address one of the critical health issues in the state of Indiana: 36% of adult Hoosiers have obesity and face serious comorbidities.
Medi-Weightloss® is a three-phase, physician-supervised weight loss program designed by experts in medicine and public health, nutrition, fitness, motivation, and education. In our clinics, medical professionals create weight loss plans based on each patient’s unique goals, current condition, medical history, and food and exercise preferences. We prescribe FDA approved anti-obesity medications. We provide individual counseling and motivate patients to reach their goal weight and transition to a healthier lifestyle.
