Listen in as host David Mandell speaks to returning guest plastic surgeon Dr. Jonathan Kaplan about adding a weight loss program to a medical practice – both for the patient’s health and happiness and the practice’s economics.

Jonathan begins the discussion with an overview of the current popular weight loss medications Ozempic/Wegovy (semaglutide) and Mounjaro/Zepbound (tirzepatide) and how they work. He then explains how his practice began consideration of a weight loss program for patients – because of both BMI limitations of patients who wanted surgery and due to suggestions from practice staff.

David and Jonathan then delve into the various elements a physician must consider when evaluating and then implementing a weight loss program for this/her patients., including how to scale it as a subscription business model.

The podcast concludes with a discussion of how the same business process of evaluating and implementing a weight loss program could be applied by a physician to other modalities, including hormone replacement, IV therapy, cosmetic therapies and more.
