Medical Weight Loss
Doctor-led weight loss that is safe and linked to better diabetes control.
Medical weight loss in India is a doctor-led programme that helps you lose weight safely using a structured plan of diet, activity, behaviour support and, where suitable, medication. At Elegance Diabetic Foot and Ulcer Clinic (EDFC), weight loss is treated as medical care, not a quick fix, and is closely linked to better diabetes control.
How is medical weight loss different from a normal diet?
A medical programme is supervised by clinicians who assess your health, set safe targets and monitor progress, rather than following a generic diet. This matters most when you have diabetes, high blood pressure or joint problems. The World Health Organization links losing excess weight to lower risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
What does an EDFC medical weight loss plan include?
Your plan starts with a full review, including body composition analysis, then combines a realistic eating plan, activity, and, where appropriate, GLP-1 therapy. Care is guided by Dr. Ashutosh Shah and our team at Surat and Vizianagaram.
Can medical weight loss help my diabetes?
Yes. Losing weight often improves blood sugar and can support diabetes remission for suitable patients. Results are tracked against your HbA1c. Book a review with our clinic team. This page is educational and not a substitute for a consultation.
