5 weeks in and I am about halfway to my weight loss goal! I started around 218 lbs, and I weighed in at 181 this morning. It has been surprisingly affordable, and they have lots of appointment times available to meet my scheduling needs. They actually care about your progress and help with side effects. There is a proper patient education component, too. I have lots of energy and confidence already!

I highly recommend the Frederick Riva’s office for your weight loss journey. I am so glad I did. The staff there is very knowledgeable and professional. I have lost 18.3 pounds in the last 2 months. I chose to use Tirzepatide and have had no side effects. I also go to the office every week for a consultation and my shot. The staff will give you all the details so you can make the right decisions for your weight loss journey and will support you along the way.

Since entering in menopause (I am in my late 40's now) nothing was working to shed the repaid weight gain. Diet pills, change of eating habits, exercise and detox nothing helped. Then I found out it was hormones. So, I decided to try medical weight loss program at Rivas Medical Weight Loss Center. They help me understand what was happening to my body (due to age) and created a weight loss plan that included weight loss injections and B-12 to help target me goal and balance my hormones. 15lbs later in 4 months slow and easy weight loss has given me hope and a new attitude. The staff is always friendly greets me with a smile and encouragement. The providers are amazing and engaging with knowledge and provides support emotionally. I feel like I am a person and not a number every time I walk through the door. Keep up the good work you're making a difference in the community.

FAQ

At our weight loss center, we prioritize transparency and realistic expectations. The results with Semaglutide are individualized, and we adhere to the clinical trial dosing regimen, adjusting every 4 weeks as needed. On average, once you reach the full dose at week 17, a steady weight loss of 1-3 pounds per week is commonly observed. We believe in letting the actual outcomes speak for themselves rather than relying on empty promises or gimmicks. Come and discover what you can achieve on your weight loss journey.

The pace of results varies among individuals. While some experience a weight loss of 5 pounds after the initial injection, others may not observe significant changes until 6-8 weeks into the treatment. Our approach involves starting with low doses and gradually increasing to mitigate potential side effects. It takes a minimum of 17 weeks to reach the full 2.4mg dose, ensuring a careful and effective progression toward your weight loss goals.

This treatment is 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 can not be treated with semaglutide 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

You can still use phentermine if you have any other medical conditions not listed above.

Short moments of nausea,

Constipation or diarrhea

Fatigue

Takes away desire for alcohol

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 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 or Virginia 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 medication 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.

No, we do not prescribe Phentermine or any controlled substances over telehealth. Currently, we offer semaglutide and tirzepatide through our telehealth services.

You must live in Maryland or Virginia to participate in our Telehealth program.

Home Injection Instruction

You will draw up your medication into a needle and give yourself the injection at home. We provide instructions to help you with this. If you have any questions or need help, you can ask your medical provider or call one of our offices.
