Medical Weight Loss Clinic in Prescott AZ

At Centra Internal Medicine, our providers play a central and multifaceted role in guiding patients through medical weight loss programs. Our approach begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your overall health—including a detailed review of medical history, current medications, lifestyle habits, and any underlying conditions that may contribute to weight gain, such as hormonal imbalances or metabolic disorders. This thorough assessment allows us to identify potential risks and design a safe, effective, and individualized weight loss plan.
 
As your primary healthcare team, Centra Internal Medicine offers more than just medical oversight. We take the time to educate you on healthy eating habits, physical activity, and the behavioral changes necessary for long-term weight management. We are here to provide ongoing support and encouragement, helping you set realistic goals and overcome challenges that may arise throughout your weight loss journey. Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor your progress, adjust your treatment plan as needed, and promptly address any side effects or complications from medications or other interventions.
 
When appropriate, our providers can prescribe FDA-approved weight loss medications, ensuring they are used safely and in conjunction with recommended lifestyle changes. We also coordinate care with trusted specialists—including dietitians, behavioral therapists, and endocrinologists—to provide you with comprehensive support every step of the way.
 
At Centra Internal Medicine, we are committed to serving as your trusted partner and guide. Our goal is to help you achieve sustainable weight loss while prioritizing your overall health and well-being.

At Centra Internal Medicine, we recognize that effective weight loss is achieved through a personalized and comprehensive approach. Our medical weight loss programs are designed and supervised by our experienced healthcare professionals, ensuring that every patient receives safe, evidence-based care tailored to their unique needs.
 
Medical weight loss at Centra Internal Medicine often includes prescription medications, behavioral counseling, and regular medical monitoring. While these interventions address underlying health factors and promote healthy weight reduction, the best results are seen when they are paired with structured exercise routines and individualized diet plans.
 
Exercise is a key component, as it increases calorie expenditure, preserves muscle mass, and improves cardiovascular and metabolic health. Our team works with you to develop an exercise plan suited to your health status, preferences, and goals. Similarly, our nutrition specialists create dietary plans that fit your lifestyle, ensuring balanced nutrition and sustainable eating habits for long-term success.
 
By combining these elements with ongoing medical supervision and, when appropriate, weight loss medications, Centra Internal Medicine offers a holistic strategy for significant and lasting weight loss. This approach enables us to closely monitor your progress, manage any potential side effects, and adjust your program as needed, making your weight loss journey safer and more effective.

Before starting any weight loss plan, we encourage you to consult with our team. At Centra Internal Medicine, we take the time to understand your medical history, lifestyle, and personal goals, creating a customized program that delivers results. This comprehensive, patient-centered approach is considered the gold standard for effective, safe, and sustainable weight management.

At Centra Internal Medicine, our medical weight loss program prioritizes your safety and long-term well-being through a comprehensive, individualized approach supervised by our experienced healthcare professionals. We understand that every patient’s journey is unique, which is why our program begins with a thorough medical assessment. Our team carefully reviews your medical history, current health status, and any underlying conditions that might impact your weight loss. This personalized evaluation allows us to identify any potential risks and to design a plan tailored specifically to your needs.
 
A cornerstone of our program is the creation of a customized nutrition and exercise plan. Unlike fad diets or unsustainable restrictions, our approach emphasizes balanced, nutrient-rich meals and gradual, manageable increases in physical activity. This ensures that weight loss occurs at a steady, healthy rate—minimizing risk and supporting lasting results.
 
Throughout your journey, you’ll receive regular monitoring and support from our medical team. We closely track your progress, making timely adjustments as needed, and are vigilant in detecting and managing any potential side effects or complications. When appropriate, our team may prescribe medications or additional interventions based on the latest evidence and your individual health profile.
 
Education and behavioral counseling are integral to our program. We provide you with the knowledge and tools you need to make informed choices about nutrition, portion control, and physical activity. Our team also offers support in developing healthy habits and effective strategies to manage challenges and prevent relapse.

At Centra Internal Medicine, medical weight loss care is led by Dr. Manish Sahni, MD, a board-certified internist who brings decades of experience and a patient-centered philosophy.

Dr. Sahni and his team craft tailored treatment plans that go beyond “one-size-fits-all” diets. Instead, they incorporate:

• A comprehensive health evaluation including chronic disease profiles (e.g. diabetes, hypertension), hormonal status, metabolic factors, and any sleep or respiratory issues that may interfere with weight loss

• Dietary counseling through registered dietitians focused on nutrition balance, portion oversight, and sustainable eating behavior

• Customized exercise prescriptions designed with regard to each patient’s fitness level, mobility, and concurrent health conditions

• Behavioral support and counseling to tackle stress, emotional eating, and lifestyle obstacles

• When clinically justified, medication support (such as semaglutide, tirzepatide, phentermine, or Contrave) under close supervision by the medical team.

• Coordination of advanced treatment options when needed, such as referral support for bariatric surgery

• Throughout your journey, Dr. Sahni remains engaged—monitoring progress, adjusting therapies, and ensuring your weight loss plan aligns with your broader health goals.
