Medical Weight Management in Newport Beach
With Dr. Rena Ahuja, weight management is medical care led by a physician who knows you well and guides every step. She treats your weight as part of your overall health, using clinical tools and close monitoring to build a plan around your body and your goals.
This is personalized, medically supervised care, delivered with the time a concierge model makes possible.
A Different Approach
to Weight Management
Medically Supervised
Your plan is directed by Dr. Ahuja, a physician who knows your full history. She looks at the metabolism, hormones, medications, and conditions that affect your weight, so your care fits the whole picture.
Body Composition Monitoring
Dr. Ahuja tracks your progress with Tanita MC-780U Plus body composition analysis, a medical-grade tool that measures fat, muscle, visceral fat, and metabolic rate in about 20 seconds. You see what is truly changing beneath the number on the scale.
GLP-1 Medication Options
When appropriate for you, Dr. Ahuja prescribes and manages GLP-1 medications in oral or injectable form, with dosing guided by how your body responds. Medication costs are billed separately through your pharmacy and are not included in your membership fee.
Right for You?
Medical weight management with Dr. Ahuja is a good fit if you want a monitored, physician-led approach. That includes managing metabolic concerns like prediabetes or insulin resistance, along with anyone who has worked at weight loss alone and wants a doctor guiding the process. Whether a GLP-1 medication is right for you is a clinical decision you and Dr. Ahuja make together at your visit.
What to Expect
Your first visit:
Get a longer appointment, often 30 to 60 minutes, to review your health history, metabolism, previous weight-loss attempts, and the medications or conditions that affect your results. Start with a baseline body composition scan to get clear overview of your personal health.
Your personalized plan:
Get a plan shaped around your body, your life, and your personal needs. It may include GLP-1 medication, lifestyle changes, and a monitoring schedule set to your needs.
Ongoing follow-up:
Frequent and consistent appointments to keep your plan on track. At each visit, review your body composition results together and check how any medication is working, adjusting as your body changes.
Support between visits:
You have direct contact with Dr. Ahuja, so a question about a side effect or a dose gets answered quickly instead of waiting for the next available appointment.
