NUTRITION COUNSELING, WEIGHT LOSS MEDICATIONS & MORE

Personalized Nonsurgical Weight Loss Treatment

When it comes to losing weight, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. At Newtown Gastroenterology, we offer a range of nonsurgical weight loss treatments tailored to your unique health needs and goals. Our comprehensive approach focuses on combining lifestyle changes with evidence-based medical interventions for the best possible outcomes.

Nutrition Counseling

Proper nutrition is the foundation of any successful weight loss plan. Our registered dietitian, Theresa Zangerle-McArtin [Theresa’s Profile], works closely with patients to develop a personalized nutrition strategy based on their dietary preferences, lifestyle, and health conditions. This isn’t about fad diets—it’s about creating realistic, sustainable eating habits that support long-term weight management.

During your appointments, you’ll receive expert guidance on portion control, meal planning, mindful eating, and making healthier food choices without feeling deprived. Our goal is to help you build a healthy relationship with food and make it easier to maintain healthier habits.

Appetite Suppressants

For some patients, controlling hunger can be one of the biggest obstacles to weight loss. Appetite suppressants help reduce cravings and control your appetite, making it easier to stick to your calorie goals. Under the supervision of our medical team, appetite suppressants can be a safe and effective tool to support your weight loss journey when combined with lifestyle changes.

We carefully evaluate each patient to determine if appetite suppressants are appropriate based on their medical history, current health status, and weight loss goals. Our team will monitor their progress closely to ensure the medication is effective and well-tolerated.

GLP-1 Medications

GLP-1 receptor agonists (think Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro) are a newer class of medications that have shown impressive results in nonsurgical weight loss treatment. Originally developed to manage type 2 diabetes, GLP-1s also help regulate appetite, slow digestion, and promote a feeling of fullness, which can lead to significant weight loss over time.

At Newtown Gastroenterology, we offer GLP-1 therapy as part of our comprehensive weight management program. Our providers will assess whether this treatment is right for you and develop a personalized plan to maximize its effectiveness. Combined with healthy lifestyle changes, GLP-1 medications can be a powerful tool in achieving and maintaining your weight loss goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a good candidate for nonsurgical weight loss?

Most people who struggle with weight management can benefit from nonsurgical weight loss treatment, especially if traditional diet and exercise plans haven’t been effective. Our team will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine the best approach for you, considering your medical history, current health status, and personal goals.

Do I need to follow a strict diet during nonsurgical weight loss treatment?

Not necessarily. The goal is to create a plan you can stick with long-term, so our approach is about creating balanced, sustainable eating habits rather than following restrictive diets. Our registered dietitian will work with you to develop a personalized nutrition plan that fits your lifestyle and preferences

Will I regain weight after stopping treatment?

Our goal is to help you develop healthy habits that last long after your treatment ends. While some individuals may experience weight regain without continued support, by focusing on sustainable lifestyle changes, we give our patients the tools they need to maintain their results. If medications are part of your plan, we’ll create a strategy to gradually transition you off them while maintaining your progress.
