I joined MDWatch at the end of December 2025 after finding them online and completing a simple form with my Medicare information. I was quickly accepted into the program, and the process was smooth from the start. When I began, I weighed 186 pounds. In just 3½ months, I’m down to 153.3 pounds. My waist has gone from 52 inches to 44 inches, and I’ve gone from wearing a 3XL scrub shirt to now wearing a large. My first appointment was with a doctor, and now I have monthly follow-ups with a nurse practitioner who is wonderful. The visits are virtual, convenient, and usually take about 10 minutes from my phone. My medications are delivered quickly, which makes staying on track easy. Overall, my experience with MDWatch has been outstanding. I’m sleeping better, I have more energy, and I haven’t experienced any noticeable side effects. The medication has helped me naturally change my eating habits—I feel satisfied with smaller portions and no longer have the urge to overeat. I’m more active now and able to do things like yard work much more easily than before. This program has truly made a meaningful difference in my life!

Just one month ago, I didn’t think I could afford any kind of weight-loss help in this economy. When I found MDWatch, it felt like the perfect solution. My prescription is only $140 a month—something I can realistically manage—and I’ve already been telling my friends that getting help doesn’t have to be expensive. For me, it’s absolutely worth it. In just 30 days, I’m already down 10 pounds. Even losing that first bit of weight has made such a difference: my knee pain has decreased, I’m breathing better at night, and I was even planning to see a doctor for sleep apnea—but now I’m canceling the appointment because I feel so much better. The only side effect I’ve experienced is a little acid reflux, but it’s mild and goes away quickly. My nurse practitioner, Kristi, is wonderful. She explains everything clearly, she’s warm, funny, and supportive, and I feel genuinely cared for. Everything about this program has been great so far, and I’m hopeful and excited to keep going. I feel like I’m just getting started.

I found MDWatch on Facebook, and from the very beginning, I felt completely supported. Every staff member and provider has been so warm, patient, and genuinely helpful — they make me feel like I matter. Getting my prescriptions has always been smooth, and I’ve never had a single issue. One of the biggest highlights of my journey has been my monthly virtual visits with Nurse Practitioner Kristi Richards.

She is incredibly positive, encouraging, and full of ideas that make my day-to-day life easier. She keeps me focused, helps with my nutrition, and has truly been a partner in this weight-loss journey. I joined MDWatch in March 2025 at 246 lbs. Today, I’m 145.3 lbs — a total loss of 100.7 lbs. I originally set a goal of 150 lbs, and I’ve already surpassed it. The weight loss has changed everything. I was finally able to get the knee surgery I needed, but couldn’t have until I lost weight. My recovery has been so much easier because I’m more active and able to walk more. My personal PCP reviewed my labs and was extremely pleased. Even my surgeon asked how I achieved this transformation — and I told him, without hesitation, ‘MDWatch.’ My new goal is 120–125 lbs, and I know I’ll get there with the continued support of the MDWatch team.

MDWatch has truly changed my life. I started my weight-loss journey at 288 pounds before my gastric
sleeve surgery, and even after surgery, I hit a prolonged stall. My bariatric surgeon, Dr. Fouad Hachem, recommended I try Zepbound through MDWatch — and that’s when everything finally started moving
again. With the combination of my surgery and the support I received through MDWatch, I am now down to 156 pounds. At 74 years old, I feel like I’m 20 again. I work full-time as a hospital switchboard operator and even hold a second job as a Multi-Township Assessor, and I have the energy to do it all. My health coach and Nurse Practitioner through the clinic, Mary Beth, has been incredible and has helped me so much throughout this process. I’ve recommended MDWatch and Zepbound to several people, including my own surgeon.4 Without MDWatch Medical Group, I truly don’t think I’d be alive today

Six months ago, I knew I had to make a change. When I was alerted about my BMI, I realized my health was on the line. Since starting treatment with MDWatch Medical Group, I’ve lost 85 pounds in just six months — and the difference has been life-changing.

Today, I can do all the things I enjoy with so much more ease and comfort. I recently went hiking in Hawaii — something I never could have done before. Around my farm and yard, I move freely and without pain. One of the biggest highlights for me is that I used to rely on gabapentin for bulging discs in my back.

Since losing the weight and reducing inflammation, I don’t need it anymore. My back pain is gone, and my overall health has improved dramatically.

The support and guidance I’ve received have truly given me my life back. I’m stronger, healthier, and happier — and I can’t thank MDWatch enough for helping me get here.

My name is RIta and as I approached my 71st birthday, I knew I needed to make a change. I was struggling with my health and even simple activities like traveling were becoming harder. My daughter mentioned online options for weight loss, but I wanted something more personal and trustworthy. That’s when I found MDWatch. From the very beginning, the onboarding process impressed me. The team took the time to answer my questions, walk me through every step, and make me feel safe and supported—even though it was an online program. The care and attention to detail gave me the confidence to begin this journey. Since officially starting in June, I’ve lost 30 pounds. My health has improved in so many ways—my stamina is better, my asthma symptoms have decreased, and I rarely need my inhaler anymore. What made the biggest difference for me was the guidance from my nurse practitioner, Kristi. She helped me see that success wasn’t just about eating less, but about fueling my body with the right nutrients, especially protein. Her support has been invaluable. I feel healthier, stronger, and more confident than I have in years. I’m so grateful to the entire MDWatch team for helping me take back control of my health, and I would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone ready to start their own journey

I reached my highest weight ever at 270+ pounds and kept telling myself I was okay with it, but eventually I realized I wanted to make a change. I had tried other options and faced challenges with affordability and accessibility, which led me to start looking for alternatives. That’s when I found MDWatch on Instagram. From the very first interaction, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and supportive. In just under five months, I have already lost 35 pounds and I’m excited to keep going on this journey. I’m especially looking forward to a cruise next year with my family, many of whom I haven’t seen in a long time, and I feel proud knowing I’ll be showing up as a totally different, healthier version of myself. My favorite part about the program has been the incredible staff and the guidance from the providers — they make the process smooth, motivating, and manageable. I would highly recommend MDWatch to anyone looking for a program that really works and treats patients with respect and attention.
