Weight loss is not a matter of willpower, but of biology.

We do not offer you a quick “injection cure” from the internet, but a medically supervised therapy concept. We combine modern active ingredients (GLP-1 agonists) with a medical check-up and professional nutritional coaching.

  • The goal: Achieve and maintain a healthy weight.
  • The concept: Medication support + lifestyle change.
  • Safety: Only after laboratory analysis and exclusion of risks.

Suitable for: BMI > 30 (or > 27 with comorbidities).

Medical Weight Management: Finally Make Peace with Your Metabolism

A multimodal therapeutic concept for sustainable weight reduction – medically supervised and safe.

Many of my patients have been struggling with their weight for years. They know the yo-yo effect, cravings, and the frustrating feeling of not losing weight despite discipline. Modern medicine now understands: obesity and overweight are often not character flaws, but complex hormonal regulation disorders.

In my private practice, we use evidence-based medications (the so-called “weight loss injection”), but never as a miracle cure alone. We use them as a toolto reset your metabolism – embedded in a solid medical foundation.

Why we say “No” to quick online prescriptions

Medications like GLP-1 agonists (e.g., Wegovy® or Mounjaro®) are highly effective drugs. They have a profound impact on blood sugar and hormonal balance. Using them without a medical assessment and supervision is negligent.

My approach as a physician:I only prescribe this therapy when it is medically safe and appropriate for you. We check your heart, thyroid, and pancreas before we begin.

Our multimodal concept: 3 pillars of success

An injection alone does not change habits. To help you maintain your weight in the long term (and avoid the yo-yo effect), we rely on three components:

1. The Medical Check (Safety First)

Before we begin, we do a “pit stop”:

  • Comprehensive blood tests (liver, kidneys, thyroid, blood sugar).
  • Ultrasound (e.g., to rule out gallstones).
  • Medical history: Are there any contraindications?

2. The Therapy (GLP-1)

We match you with the right medication.

  • Effect: Strong feeling of fullness, less “food noise” (constant thoughts about food), stable blood sugar.
  • Application: Once a week, comfortably at home (pen).

3. Nutrition Coaching

The medication opens the window, you have to walk through it.

  • Essential component: We work closely with specialized nutritionists.
  • Goal: Learn a way of eating that keeps you satisfied and provides nutrients, so you don’t lose muscle mass.

Why weight management is a matter of trust

In my private practice, I combine an internist’s view (metabolism/health) with aesthetic understanding.

  • No stigmatization: We speak openly about obesity as a chronic disease.
  • Support management: Nausea? Dizziness? I won’t leave you on your own with possible side effects during the adjustment phase. We tailor the dosage individually.
  • Holistic approach: Often, stress (cortisol) or sleep problems play a role. We look at the bigger picture.

Important Questions & Costs

Who can be treated?

The therapy is approved for people with a BMI over 30 (obesity) or a BMI over 27 with accompanying conditions (e.g., high blood pressure, pre-diabetes). We do not treat patients who just want to lose “2 kilos for vacation” (no lifestyle use).

What does the treatment cost?

The treatment is generally a self-pay service (GOÄ). This includes the medical consultation, diagnostics, and prescription. You also pay for the medication itself (pharmacy price). Private insurance may cover costs in certain cases with a medical indication – we must assess this individually.

Do I have to inject forever?

Not necessarily. Our goal is to solidify new habits during the therapy period. Those who make lasting changes to diet and activity have a good chance of maintaining weight even after discontinuing medication. Without accompanying changes, the weight often returns.

Conclusion: A medical opportunity for a real new beginning.
