I highly recommend Rivas Medical Weight Loss - not only for the effective weight loss I experienced years ago, but also for their Exomind equipment that I just tried! I'm 70 yrs. old and have been struggling with dealing with my son's rare form of cancer that the oncologists don't seem to know what to do with as well as helping to run a martial arts school that we both own and run together. And then there was just the general stress and tension that exists within our country right now added on top of everything else. At any rate, I was not only not getting good sleep, I was becoming a very angry driver as a result of all the stress and I didn't like that side of myself! Even after the first Exomind treatment (there are 4 total and then single follow-ups about 3 months apart), I felt a TREMENDOUS difference in my mood, calmness, my driving and my handling of various situations that can be stressful! It's been more than a week since I finished the 4th session and the effects are lasting! I am so relieved! In addition, my sleep seems to have improved and I lost 5 lbs after just the first session because I don't have the food cravings that I was having before I tried it! With all the stress and tension in the world today, this is a life changer! I highly recommend Exomind treatments!!

I began my weight loss journey 2.5 years ago, and am truly grateful for the unwavering support I have received along the way. I would like to extend my deepest thanks to Dr. Rivas and his outstanding team at the Towson office for their guidance and encouragement. Your support has made an incredible difference in allowing me to be within 10 pounds of my goal weight. Thank you all so very much!

Christmas spirit is upon us & I felt compelled to spread the good vibes. Staff has come & gone over the years but the lovely ladies (Gabrielle, Dinisha, Dr B & Kelsey) now running the show are the absolute best! Always helpful, smiling & encouraging. Any problems that arise with appointment times & changes are met with courtesy & they bend over backwards to accommodate (although I’m sure it’s difficult given how busy they are)!!! I recommend highly!!!

Appointment was perfect! just like it always is when I go there. They are always on time, and everyone not just professional, but very nice.. I love they send all the reminders also.
I had an appointment at the location in Annapolis, but missed my appointment, wished I would’ve gotten a reminder. So that’s why I went back to the Glen Burnie location…. Never any problems 😁

The staff is always pleasant, sometimes I have to be mindful that this is not my primary care Physician. I sometimes be expecting more engagement from the medical staff that is giving the GLP injection.😂😂😂😂. They definitely get you in and get you out with the quickness. I don’t think I’ve ever spend over 15/20 minutes for the total visit. .
As far as the progress of the injections, I have been using tirzepatide since May 2025. Losing 26 lbs, beginning weight 185 lbs today’s weight 159lbs. Goal weight 145/150.

I have lost 50 pounds through my journey with Rivas Medical Center. The Physician Assistants and the front desk receptionist and medical assistant are truly the best at the Rockville office and so supportive. I highly recommend them and would not be where I am on my weight loss journey to better health without them.
