Insurance-friendly, physician-supervised, non-surgical weight management in Greater Philadelphia
Serving Northeast Philadelphia and the surrounding suburbs with integrated medical weight loss and sleep medicine.

Why Choose W8MD Philadelphia

Weight and sleep are deeply connected. As a comprehensive sleep diagnostic and treatment center and a physician-supervised medical weight loss clinic, W8MD addresses both sides of the problem—so you can lose weight more effectively and keep it off.

Highlights

  • Physician-supervised, evidence-based care

  • Non-surgical, personalized plans

  • Insurance accepted for physician visits (coverage varies by plan)

  • Integrated sleep disorder evaluation and treatment

Core Medical Weight Loss Services

  • Initial medical evaluation & risk screening
    Comprehensive history, vitals, body composition (when available), metabolic risk review (e.g., insulin resistance).

  • Dietary counseling & medical nutrition therapy
    Practical, culturally flexible plans you can follow in real life.

  • Low-Calorie Diets (LCD) & Very Low-Calorie Diets (VLCD)
    Structured, monitored options for fast and effective weight loss in Philadelphia.

  • W8MD meal-replacement program
    Delicious, affordable options with clear nutrition instructions. Many patients combine meal replacements with 1–2 self-prepared meals.
    Prefer not to use shakes or bars? We also offer non-meal-replacement pathways.

  • Behavior & habit coaching
    Meal timing, protein and fiber targets, dining-out strategies, and relapse-prevention skills.

  • Activity guidance
    Simple, sustainable movement and strength training plans tailored to your schedule and mobility.

FDA-Approved Prescription Options (When Appropriate)

Supervised use of FDA-approved prescription weight loss medications (often called diet pills or appetite suppressants) to support appetite control and adherence.
Your clinician will determine candidacy, safety, dosing, and insurance/prior authorization needs.

Sleep Medicine Services (Integrated With Weight Care)

W8MD is also a sleep diagnostic and treatment center led by a board-certified sleep medicine physician. We evaluate and treat:

  • Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)

  • Insomnia

  • Narcolepsy

  • Restless legs syndrome (RLS)

  • Circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders (shift work, delayed/advanced phase)

  • Hypersomnias

  • Parasomnias, including sleepwalking and REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD)

Diagnostics & Therapy

  • Home Sleep Testing (HST) and In-Lab Polysomnography

  • Treatment initiation and optimization: CPAP, Auto-PAP, BiPAP

  • Ongoing coaching to improve comfort, adherence, and outcomes

How Our Comprehensive Program Works

  1. Assess: Medical, nutritional, and sleep evaluation to identify root causes of weight gain.

  2. Plan: Personalized nutrition + behavior + activity framework; consider FDA-approved meds if indicated.

  3. Treat Sleep: Test and treat sleep disorders that stall weight loss (e.g., OSA).

  4. Adjust: Regular follow-ups to fine-tune calories, protein/fiber, timing, meds, and PAP therapy.

  5. Maintain: Build durable habits and relapse-proof routines for long-term success.

  • Adults seeking non-surgical, physician-supervised weight loss

  • Individuals with insulin resistance or cardiometabolic risk

  • Patients who suspect sleep issues are undermining progress
