“I cannot say enough about Dr. Eduardo and his staff. Started this journey last November and was given a goal of 25lbs to lose before my surgery date. I crushed it and actually lost 35lbs. I was weighing 278 lbs and now I'm at 165.”

Book a consultation →Why it matters
We built the program every other clinic wishes they had.
A telehealth clinic gives you a prescription and a portal. A med-spa gives you a shot. We give you a complete, data-driven lifestyle program, with a surgeon who can escalate to bariatric surgery if that's where you end up. No starting over. No strangers.
Surgeon-directed, specialist-run
The weight loss program is built and directed by Dr. Eduardo, board-certified bariatric surgeon. Day-to-day care is run by a dedicated weight loss specialist (NP/PA) who knows your program inside out. You get real clinical expertise, not a generic telehealth intake.
Body comp, not just a scale
We measure fat mass, lean mass, and metabolic rate with a clinical SECA scale at every key visit. Your plan is built on real data, not just pounds.
Nutritionist-built plan
A nutritionist who follows the Omnia program builds your diet and exercise plan around your body comp results and your actual life. Updated as you progress.
Custom AI app, launching soon
We are building our own AI app for this program. It will generate a personalized diet and exercise plan from your actual body composition data and update it as you change, and track intake, workouts, weight and body comp. Until it ships, you can add a home body composition scale and our team monitors your numbers remotely between visits.
Every option, no handoffs
Diet and exercise only. Meds only. Meds + lifestyle. Surgery. Or all of the above, in sequence. One practice, one physician who knows your entire history, no referrals to strangers.
FDA-approved medication only
Omnia prescribes FDA-approved, branded anti-obesity medication when it is clinically appropriate: Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro and the oral pill Foundayo. We do not substitute compounded copies for an available FDA-approved product.
How it works
Your program, step by step.
A clear, physician-supervised path, from your first evaluation to ongoing follow-up.
Medical evaluation by your care team
A physician or advanced practice provider (not a front-desk intake) reviews your full history, exam, and labs. We identify conditions that change which path is safest and rule out anything that should be addressed first. The entire program operates under Dr. Eduardo's direction.
Clinical body composition (SECA)
We measure fat mass, lean mass, and metabolic rate with a clinical SECA scale, not just weight and BMI. This baseline drives your entire program. No guessing what's actually happening in your body.
Personalized medication + plan
We prescribe the right FDA-approved medication at the right starting dose, then build a complete program around it, not just a prescription and a pamphlet.
Nutritionist-built diet + exercise plan
You meet with a nutritionist we work with, who follows the Omnia program, to build a diet and exercise plan custom to your body comp, your goals, and your life. Not a generic handout, a real, tailored roadmap.
Your personalized daily program, soon in your pocket
Your plan is written down and adjusted with you at every visit, so you always know what to eat and what to do. We are also building our own AI app, launching soon, that will turn your data into a personalized daily diet and exercise routine and recalibrate it as you change. That is what a coach in your pocket should actually look like.
Ongoing monitoring & remote body comp
Regular physician check-ins for dose titration, labs, and progress. Patients who want deeper tracking can add a home body comp scale with remote monitoring by our staff, so we see what's happening between visits.

Setting expectations
What the trials show vs. what usually happens
The numbers in the ads come from clinical trials, where people take the full dose for a full year with close support. Staying on treatment gets most patients close to those numbers. The everyday gap comes from stopping early, not from the medicine failing.
Trial figures: STEP 1 (semaglutide, NEJM 2021) and SURMOUNT-1 (tirzepatide, NEJM 2022) over 68 to 72 weeks. Real-world figures reflect patients who stay on treatment (Samuels, Diabetes Obesity & Metabolism 2025; Gasoyan, Obesity 2025); typical results run lower because roughly 64.8% discontinue within 12 months (Rodriguez, JAMA Network Open 2025). Individual results vary.
The medications
FDA-approved options we prescribe.
Only branded, FDA-approved GLP-1 medications and oral therapies, matched to you by a physician, never compounded.
Semaglutide
Wegovy · Ozempic · GLP-1 receptor agonist
Weekly injection that curbs appetite and slows digestion. ~15% average body-weight loss in trials (STEP 1).
Learn more 02Tirzepatide
Zepbound · Mounjaro · Dual GIP + GLP-1 agonist
Weekly injection acting on two gut hormones. ~20% average body-weight loss in trials (SURMOUNT-1).
Learn moreOral & Phentermine
Appetite suppressants · Short-term oral therapy
For select patients who prefer a pill or aren't candidates for injectables. Discussed at your evaluation.
Discussed at your evaluation.Am I a candidate?
Most patients qualify at a BMI of 27 or higher.
FDA labeling supports GLP-1 weight management for adults with a BMI of 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with at least one weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, prediabetes, or obstructive sleep apnea. Final candidacy is always determined after a full medical evaluation (source: FDA labeling for Wegovy and Zepbound).
Quick BMI guide
- BMI ≥ 30Likely a candidate for GLP-1 therapy.
- 27–29.9Likely a candidate with one weight-related condition.
- BMI ≥ 35Worth discussing bariatric surgery as well, we offer both under one roof.

Verify coverageOne question to ask any weight-loss clinic
Is this the FDA-approved medication, or a compounded copy?
Ask whether your medication is the branded, FDA-approved version or a compounded version mixed by a pharmacy. At Omnia there is only one answer: branded, FDA-approved GLP-1, Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro and the oral pill Foundayo. Never compounded. Compounded copies are not FDA-evaluated for safety, quality or effectiveness, and we will not cut that corner.
Branded vs. compounded GLP-1, explained- ◆Branded, FDA-approved GLP-1 only.
- ◆Prescribed and monitored by a physician.
- ◆FDA-approved product, not a compounded copy or a research chemical.
Why it's a long-term therapy
Stop the medicine, and the weight comes back
GLP-1 medicine works while you take it, the way blood-pressure medicine does. Stay on it and most people hold a real-world loss of around 10 to 12%. But about 2 in 3 stop within the first year, and within months of stopping, most of the weight returns. For many people the medication is a bridge, not the finish line.
Real-world scale: people who stay on treatment lose about 10 to 12% and hold it (Gasoyan, Obesity 2025). After stopping, roughly two-thirds of the lost weight returns within a year (STEP 1 extension, Wilding, Diabetes Obesity & Metabolism 2022; same pattern in the SURMOUNT-4 withdrawal arm, Aronne, JAMA 2024). About 64.8% of patients discontinue within 12 months (Rodriguez, JAMA Network Open 2025). Individual results vary.
When surgery is the better fit
Bariatric surgery
For higher BMIs or when medication isn't enough, bariatric surgery offers stronger, more durable results. Because Dr. Eduardo offers both surgical and medical weight loss, you can move between paths without starting over with a new provider.

Not sure which path?
GLP-1 medication and bariatric surgery aren't either/or, many patients use them in sequence. The right starting point depends on your BMI, health, and goals, and Dr. Eduardo will help you decide.

Medical weight loss questions

You may be a candidate if your BMI is 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, prediabetes, or sleep apnea. Every patient starts with a full medical evaluation by Dr. Eduardo before any medication is prescribed, candidacy is a clinical decision, not a checkbox.
We prescribe FDA-approved, branded GLP-1 medications: semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic) and tirzepatide (Zepbound, Mounjaro), plus oral options such as phentermine when appropriate. Your medication is matched to your medical history, goals, and tolerance. We do not offer compounded GLP-1 formulations.
Because weight is a medical condition, not a willpower problem, and because a surgeon-directed program brings a safety net no med-spa can. Your day-to-day program is run by a dedicated weight loss specialist under Dr. Eduardo's direction. If medication ever isn't enough, the same surgeon who built the program can discuss bariatric surgery. One practice, the whole journey.
In published trials, adults lost on average about 15% of body weight on semaglutide and about 20% on tirzepatide over roughly 68–72 weeks, combined with lifestyle changes. Individual results vary and depend on dose, adherence, and your overall plan. Our team will set realistic, personalized expectations at your visit (sources: STEP 1, NEJM 2021; SURMOUNT-1, NEJM 2022).
GLP-1 medications work best as part of a comprehensive lifestyle program. Some patients maintain results long-term on medication; others taper off while sustaining new habits. We build a long-term plan with you, including whether bariatric surgery may eventually be a better fit.
Coverage varies widely. Commercial plans may cover FDA-approved weight-loss medication, usually with prior authorization, and many exclude it entirely. Medicare changed in 2026: from 1 July 2026 through 31 December 2027, CMS is running a demonstration called the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge, which gives eligible Part D beneficiaries certain weight-management GLP-1s for a $50 monthly copay. It currently covers all formulations of Wegovy and Foundayo and the Zepbound KwikPen. Eligibility is specific (a BMI of 35 or higher, or 30 or higher with heart failure, uncontrolled high blood pressure or stage 3a-plus kidney disease, or 27 or higher with pre-diabetes, a prior heart attack or stroke, or symptomatic peripheral artery disease), and the Bridge sits outside the ordinary Part D benefit, so your Part D plan does not have to opt in for you to use it. Separately, regular Part D may still cover these medicines when they are prescribed for another approved use, such as Zepbound for obstructive sleep apnea or Wegovy for cardiovascular risk reduction. Our team works out which pathway applies to your plan and your diagnosis before you start. If nothing covers it, we publish self-pay pricing and offer financing through Cherry.

Continuity of care
The physician you choose is the physician who stays involved.
One physician
Dr. Eduardo evaluates you, builds the plan, performs the procedure and sees you afterwards. Not a coordinator, not a rotating provider, not whoever is covering that week.
One connected practice
Medical weight loss, bariatric surgery, reflux, hernias and vein care do not live in separate silos here. When one problem turns out to be caused by another, nobody has to be referred out to find that out.
No revolving door
Your care is not handed between a visiting surgeon, a franchise program and a call centre in another state. The same person is accountable at the start and at the end.
