Medical Weight Loss

Internal medicine physician Nancy Horvitz-Rist, M.D. offers an individualized, medically supervised approach to losing weight – and keeping it off.

Dr. Horvitz-Rist sees weight-loss patients at the Crozer-Chester Medical Center, Ambulatory Care Pavilion, Suite 532, in Upland. To make an appointment, please call 610-761-9695.

Dr. Horvitz-Rist is board-certified in internal medicine. She understands the complex factors that are related to weight gain – individual psychology, contributing illnesses, prescription medication and the genetics of individual body composition. Horvist-Rist aims to help clients break food addictions and reach a healthy target weight quickly while learning healthy habits that will help them to maintain their weight loss permanently.

Her program begins with a comprehensive consultation and measurement process. Whether clients are suffering from severe health issues due to excess weight or are looking to lose 15-20 pounds for cosmetic reasons, all receive a full medical consultation with detailed scientific measurement of their body mass and basal metabolic rate. The consultation and measurement allows Dr. Horvitz-Rist to accurately predict weight loss results based on each client’s individual body composition analysis.

Each fully individualized program is supported with ongoing one-on-one care, including nutrition, fitness, medication, behavioral modification and counseling. This includes access to high-quality nutritional products only available to physicians. Clients will also have access to the latest, FDA-approved weight loss medications.
