Rivas Medical Weight Loss

dr rivas

We are a weight loss clinic where you can meet regularly with a medical provider who specializes in helping you improve your health and wellbeing.

Our Treatment Philosophy

At Rivas Medical Weight Loss, we view weight management the same way we view conditions like high blood pressure: as a chronic medical issue, not a personal failure. That’s why we combine effective medications with practical lifestyle support—without judgment.We approach every patient with compassion and clinical expertise. Our philosophy has led to high success rates and life-changing improvements in health and well-being.Our patients have:
  • Reversed pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes
  • Improved fatty liver, sleep apnea, joint pain, and high blood pressure
  • Lowered cholesterol and reduced acid reflux
  • Gained energy to be more present with their kids
  • Reduced anxiety and depression
  • Increased mobility and qualified for surgery
  • Quit smoking without gaining weight
  • Lost baby weight and regained confidence
  • Passed DOT physicals, Military PT tests, and Fire/Police exams
And beyond all that—we’re simply there for our patients. Whether you’re caring for elderly parents, recovering from loss (even the loss of a pet), or just trying to get through a stressful move or renovation, we offer support without pressure.We celebrate your wins. We help you bounce back from setbacks. And most of all, we treat people—not just weight.

What Sets Us Apart

  • At Rivas Medical Weight Loss, we go beyond prescriptions—we provide real, personalized care every step of the way.

  • While many clinics hand out medications with minimal follow-up, we prioritize weekly one-on-one visits with experienced providers. These sessions offer ongoing support, medical insight, and tailored guidance to help you succeed—either in person or via telehealth.

  • If traditional methods like diet and exercise haven’t worked, our physicians can prescribe medications—backed by science, not gimmicks.

  • Here’s what else makes us different:

    • Experienced Physicians:Every provider specializes in medical weight loss and brings years of expertise to your care.
    • Transparent Pricing:No hidden fees. No contracts. Just clear, affordable care.
    • On-Site Medications:Skip the pharmacy—choose to receive your medication directly from our offices.
    • Telehealth Convenience:Access expert care from the comfort of your home, available across Maryland, Virginia, and Florida.
    • Largest in Maryland:With 15 clinics and 15,000+ in-person visits monthly, we’re the largest medical weight loss provider in the state.
    • Quality-First Medications:Semaglutide and Tirzepatide sourced from licensed 503A and FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facilities.

    This is more than weight loss. This is expert care—designed around you.
