What is medical weight management?
Obesity is a medical condition with metabolic, cardiovascular, and joint consequences — and one where the right medical support can dramatically change outcomes. At Viva Medical Center in Doral, FL, medical weight management is anchored by a comprehensive metabolic evaluation, a realistic plan built around your schedule and food culture, and when clinically appropriate, FDA-approved medication options for adults who meet criteria.
How long does treatment last?
It depends on the condition and how you respond. Many patients see meaningful improvement within 4-8 weeks; chronic conditions may require ongoing management. We set clear expectations at the first visit.
Are same-day appointments available?
Yes — subject to scheduling. Call (305) 209-0001 or book online to confirm.
Can I continue care by telehealth?
Yes, for most follow-ups. The first visit is usually in-person for a complete exam; medication adjustments and lab reviews work well by telehealth.
