I've been seeing Dr. Rivas Weight Loss Clinic off and on at 55 Kensington Pkwy, Abingdon, MD 21009, since 2004. The staff at this location are very compassionate, friendly, and accommodating. Dr Rivas has great bedside manners, very friendly strikes up a casual conversation that makes you feel very welcomed, I met with Dr. Rivas, in 2004, I highly recommend Dr. Paul Rivas, as your professional weight loss / control consultant. During the Covid phase, I gained quite a bit of weight, 65 pounds. I've had a difficult time trying to shed this extra weight, I've decided to visit Dr Rivas Weight Loss Clinic on September 4, 2024. At the time of my initial visit, I weighed 227 pounds at a height of 5'9". After 3 months of consultations with the Clinic PA's, I've lost 62 pounds, my weight is currently at 165 lbs, my target weight is 155 to 160 lbs, almost there and should make this goal after the Holidays Dinners.

Attached is the before and after photo, the before taken on September 4th, 2024 and the after picture taken on December 23rd, 2024, I feel soo much better now, I have more energy, I do not tire as easy, and my clothes fit much more comfortably now. A big thank you to the Rivas medical weight loss staff and the PA's.

The experience at Rivas has been great. The entire staff are so nice. I love how you are not there for so long how you normally would be at a doctors office. The longest I’ve been there is probably 30-40 min from check in to check out. Definitely would recommend to others and will go back again.

The staff is amazing, everyone is super friendly. I lost 15 pounds in a month with phentermine.

Description

Other weight loss places may make promises and guarantees, but instead of gimmicks we prefer to let the results speak for themselves. Results are dependent on individuals, so come and find out what you can achieve.

From what our patients share, results can start early—some notice a 5-pound drop after the very first injection. Others say they don’t see much movement until 6–8 weeks into treatment. Everyone’s journey is different. By starting low and increasing the dose gradually, we aim to keep side effects minimal and progress sustainable.

Semaglutide weight loss injections are a particularly good fit for you if you are looking for a long-term solution, you have taken phentermine or another stimulant medication (like ADHD meds) before, and/or you need to lose more than 10-15 lbs.

You cannot be treated with a semaglutide injection prescription if you have:

  • Medullary Thyroid cancer
  • Multiple endocrine neoplasia
  • Type 1 Diabetics
  • Type 2 diabetics already taking a GLP-1 medication
  • History of pancreatitis
  • Chronic kidney disease (unless cleared by nephrologist)
  • Nursing, Pregnant, or trying to get pregnant

 

During your weekly visit, you’ll meet with our staff to monitor your progress, address any challenges, and adjust your treatment plan as needed. This may include checking vital signs, administering weight loss injections and/or vitamin injections, and providing personalized support to help you stay on track with your goals.

We highly encourage weekly visits to maximize accountability and ensure the best results. However, we understand that weekly visits may not be feasible for everyone. For your convenience, we can send you home with medication, and we also offer telehealth services for those who live farther away or have time constraints.

Our patients often mention brief moments of nausea, changes in digestion like constipation or diarrhea, and feeling more tired than usual. Many have also noticed a reduced desire for alcohol.

Our team works with you to manage these symptoms and provide a positive experience throughout your treatment.

Yes, unlike vaccines or many other shots you may think of, this injection is done with a tiny needle that only goes under the skin, not into muscle. Patients often don’t realize we already gave the semaglutide shot.

We do not process any insurance. Unfortunately, most insurance companies refuse to cover medical weight loss, but we are happy to provide invoices for reimbursement if your insurance does. Some patients are able to get reimbursed for the visit.

We offer telehealth services for patients residing in Maryland, Virginia and Florida who are interested in treatment with semaglutide or tirzepatide. Here’s how it works:

Monthly Video Appointments:
You will have a monthly video appointment with one of our medical providers. During these appointments, your provider will monitor your progress, address any concerns, and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

Convenient Medication Delivery:
Once your treatment plan is established, the telemedicine weight loss prescription will be shipped directly to your home. This ensures you have easy and timely access to your medication without needing to visit the clinic.

Telehealth allows you to receive high-quality care from the comfort of your home, making it easier to stay on track with your treatment and health goals.
