People Are Losing 2-3 Pounds A Week With Medical Weight Loss
Why Our Medical Weight Loss Works When Diet & Exercise Don’t:
Your body is built to store fat, not burn it.
The more you diet or exercise, the more your metabolism slows to hold onto fat for future energy.
Add factors like age, hormones, insulin resistance, and stress, and weight loss becomes even harder—leaving many frustrated and ready to give up.
We take a different approach.
Instead of a one-size-fits-all plan, we identify your biological barriers to weight loss and create a doctor-supervised program tailored to your body's needs.
Traditional diets leave you battling hunger and metabolic slowdowns.
Our medical weight loss program curbs appetite without slowing metabolism, making it easier to lose weight and keep it off.
Think of it like cruise control for your appetite—helping you stay on track, eat less without feeling deprived, and finally see real, lasting results.
The best way to learn if Medical Weight Loss is right for you is to schedule a free consultation.

Dr. Musielak and her staff have been so kind and been a God send to me in my weight loss journey. She is so helpful, listens and always takes her time with me. I love that about her. I could tell from the very first visit I was where I needed to be and she was in my corner. I highly recommend her if you are having trouble losing weight and not meeting your goals. She will help you get there. I had a gastric bypass in 2000 and 2 gastric revisions, but never met my goal. Within 8 months of seeing Dr M, I had met my goal and lost even more! Give Dr Musielak a call she will help you lose the weight.

Dr Musielak is a rare combination of an empathetic, knowledgeable and decisive doctor. In a world of frazzled MDs that are always running late, who don’t listen and ask you to diagnose yourself, she is an anomaly. I have been extremely pleased with Dr. M, her nurses, and her cutting edge practice. Highly recommend.
