Personalized physician-supervised weight loss with concierge-level care, advanced diagnostics, and medically guided treatment options.
At HilbertMD, weight loss is never approached as a one-size-fits-all program. Our concierge medical weight loss program is designed for patients who want a more personalized, physician-led strategy that considers the full picture of their health.
As part of our concierge internal medicine practice, weight loss care is integrated with your broader medical history, lifestyle, lab work, metabolic profile, and long-term wellness goals. Whether you are struggling with stubborn weight gain, metabolic resistance, prediabetes, hormone-related changes, or difficulty maintaining progress on your own, Dr. Douglas Hilbert provides individualized support rooted in both medical insight and ongoing physician access.
This is not rushed, generic care. It is a more comprehensive, relationship-based model for achieving sustainable results.
Personalized Medical Weight Loss Within a Concierge Practice
At HilbertMD, medical weight loss includes much more than a prescription. Every plan is developed with a physician’s understanding of how weight affects energy, blood sugar, cardiovascular risk, inflammation, body composition, and long-term health.
Your care may include:
-
Comprehensive medical evaluation
-
Nutrition and lifestyle counseling
-
Lab testing for metabolic, hormonal, or thyroid-related contributors
-
DEXA body composition analysis
-
Resting metabolic rate and muscle index evaluation
-
Ongoing monitoring and plan adjustments
-
Prescription weight loss medication when medically appropriate
Because this care is delivered within a concierge medicine model, patients benefit from longer visits, more direct access, and a treatment plan that evolves based on real progress rather than guesswork.
Why Choose Concierge Medical Weight Loss with HilbertMD?
Comprehensive Evaluation
Every plan begins with an in-depth assessment that may include:
-
In-office DEXA scan to measure fat mass, lean muscle, and visceral fat
-
Full lab testing to identify metabolic, hormonal, thyroid, or inflammatory factors
-
Nutritional and lifestyle review
-
Resting metabolic rate and muscle index evaluation

Adjusted based on lab findings, body composition, and clinical response
-
Connected to your complete health history

Concierge Access
As a concierge patient, you receive:

Direct access to your physician for support and questions

Faster adjustments to treatment strategies

A doctor who understands your goals, your health history, and your barriers to success
GLP-1 and Peptide-Based Weight Loss Options
For some patients, medical weight loss may include peptide-based medications that help
regulate appetite, improve blood sugar control, and support steady fat loss when used as part of
a broader physician-supervised plan.
These options may include medications in the semaglutide and tirzepatide categories,
depending on your medical history, treatment goals, and eligibility.
Patients often ask about brand-name medications such as:
-
Ozempic
-
Wegovy
-
Mounjaro
-
Zepbound
These medications are not appropriate for everyone, and not every patient needs the same approach. At HilbertMD, treatment decisions are based on your full clinical picture, including your metabolic health, current conditions, risk factors, previous weight loss attempts, and medication tolerance.
Rather than pursuing medication alone, our goal is to use the right tools in the right setting, with physician oversight and a plan that supports lasting progress.
Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, and Compounded Weight Loss Discussions
Patients searching for medical weight loss often want to understand the difference between
brand-name medications and compounded options. At HilbertMD, those conversations happen within the context of your full health plan, not as a shortcut or one-size-fits-all solution.
When medically appropriate, Dr. Hilbert can discuss:
-
Semaglutide-based treatment options
-
Tirzepatide-based treatment options
-
Brand-name medications such as Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound
-
Whether a compounded option may be considered in certain circumstances
-
Safe dosing, titration, monitoring, and side effect management
Our focus is always on individualized care, medical safety, reputable sourcing, and close follow-up.
The Importance of DEXA Scans for Medical Weight Loss
Most weight loss programs rely on the scale alone. A DEXA scan provides a much deeper
understanding of what is actually changing in your body.
This advanced imaging helps measure:
-
Fat mass
-
Lean muscle mass
-
Visceral fat
That distinction matters. Successful weight loss should focus on reducing fat while preserving muscle. Muscle plays a major role in metabolic health, insulin sensitivity, strength, and long-term weight maintenance.
DEXA scanning also identifies visceral fat, which surrounds internal organs and is associated with increased risk for diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic syndrome. By tracking these changes over time, Dr. Hilbert can fine-tune your plan more precisely. If fat loss slows, muscle mass drops, or progress plateaus, treatment can be adjusted based on real data. This gives patients a more accurate and more useful picture of progress than body weight alone.
Nutrition and Metabolic Optimization
Medication is only one possible component of a successful medical weight loss plan. At
HilbertMD, nutrition guidance and metabolic evaluation are central to the process.
We help patients:
-
Build sustainable anti-inflammatory eating habits
-
Improve protein intake to preserve muscle during fat loss
-
Address vitamin and nutrient deficiencies
-
Understand how food affects appetite, energy, and blood sugar
-
Use lab results and body composition data to guide strategy changes
The goal is not short-term restriction. It is to create a medically informed plan that supports both
results and long-term maintenance.
Why This Approach Is Different
Many weight loss clinics focus on speed, volume, or prescription-only care. HilbertMD offers a more complete and personalized model.
Our concierge medical weight loss program is built for patients who want:
-
A physician-supervised plan
-
More time and access
-
Clinical evaluation beyond basic intake forms
-
Ongoing adjustments based on progress
-
Integration with overall primary and internal medicine care
-
Support for long-term health, not just short-term weight loss
Because weight loss is tied to so many aspects of health, it often works best when managed
within a broader medical relationship
