WHAT NON-SURGICAL OPTIONS DO WE OFFER?

For those of you who are looking to lose weight without the use of surgical procedures, Anchorage Bariatrics can offer a handful of services to help you reach your weight loss goals. Our clinical dietitian, Erika Van Calcar, MS, RDN, LDN, has over a decade of experience in her field. She has helped countless individuals lead happier and healthier lives. When you work with her, she will assist you in laying out a dietary plan that is in line with your personal weight loss goals. Working with Erika Van Calcar can not only help you get to your desired weight — but, it can also help you maintain those results once you’ve achieved your weight loss goals.

In addition to our dietician services, we also offer bariatric medications for weight loss. These medications can be an effective addition to your overall weight loss plan. Along with maintaining a healthy diet and getting adequate exercise, these medications work to help you achieve a healthy BMI, curbing your appetite and preventing you from making poor and impulsive dietary decisions. Furthermore, they help make you feel fuller than you normally would after eating smaller portions. Weight loss medications are a great way to supplement your efforts to reach your goal weight.

Weight loss is hard to achieve and even more difficult to maintain after you reach your goals. But, it is in no way impossible. There are options that don’t involve surgery and can still produce fantastic results that will change your life. Medication and consultation with an expert are two of the most effective ways to shed excess pounds and keep the weight off. Anchorage Bariatrics can help you on your journey when you schedule an appointment today.
