A Personalized Approach to Weight Loss, Metabolic Health, and Long-Term Wellness
Struggling with your weight is not a sign of weakness, lack of willpower, or poor self-control. Excess weight and obesity are complex medical conditions influenced by genetics, hormones, metabolism, lifestyle, stress, sleep, medications, and other underlying health factors.
At Weston Medical Health & Wellness, Dr. Andrea Bretal provides a comprehensive, medically supervised approach to weight management that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of weight gain while helping patients improve their overall health and quality of life.
As a board-certified Internal Medicine physician and Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine, Dr. Bretal combines more than 30 years of clinical experience with a personalized, evidence-based approach to help patients achieve sustainable results.
Whether your goal is weight loss, improved energy, better metabolic health, body transformation, or healthy aging, we create individualized treatment plans designed specifically for your needs.
Understanding Weight Gain
Weight gain is rarely caused by a single factor. Many patients struggle despite eating well and exercising regularly because underlying issues may be affecting their metabolism and ability to lose weight.
Common contributors include:
- Hormonal imbalances
- Thyroid dysfunction
- Insulin resistance
- Menopause and andropause
- Chronic stress
- Poor sleep quality
- Emotional eating
- Medication side effects
- Genetic predisposition
- Changes in metabolism with aging
At Weston Medical Health & Wellness, we take the time to understand the whole picture—not just the number on the scale.
Our Comprehensive Evaluation Process
Every patient begins with a detailed medical consultation and comprehensive assessment.
Depending on your needs, your evaluation may include:
- Medical history review
- Lifestyle assessment
- Nutritional evaluation
- Hormone assessment
- Laboratory testing
- InBody® Body Composition Analysis
- FIT3D® Body Scanning
By combining advanced technology with medical expertise, we can accurately assess body fat, muscle mass, visceral fat, metabolic health, and overall body composition.
This allows us to create a personalized strategy based on objective data rather than guesswork.
Personalized Weight Management Programs
No two patients are alike, which is why we do not believe in one-size-fits-all solutions.
Your customized program may include:
Nutritional Coaching
Personalized nutrition strategies designed to support fat loss, improve metabolic health, and create sustainable lifestyle habits.
Behavioral & Lifestyle Coaching
Support for stress management, eating behaviors, sleep optimization, and long-term habit formation.
Medical Weight Management
Evidence-based treatment options that may include prescription medications when appropriate.
Hormone Optimization
Evaluation and management of hormonal imbalances that may affect metabolism, energy, body composition, and overall wellness.
Body Composition Monitoring
Regular InBody and FIT3D assessments allow us to track changes in fat mass, muscle mass, body shape, and overall progress.
Advanced Body Contouring & Wellness Therapies
Patients may benefit from complementary therapies including Zerona VZ8®, Invisa-RED™, whole-body vibration therapy, and HydroHeal™ molecular hydrogen therapy as part of a comprehensive wellness program.
Why Our Approach Is Different
Many weight loss programs focus exclusively on the scale.
We focus on improving your overall health.
Our goal is not simply to help you lose pounds. We aim to help you:
- Reduce excess body fat
- Preserve and build healthy muscle
- Improve metabolic health
- Optimize hormone balance
- Increase energy levels
- Enhance confidence
- Support healthy aging
- Create sustainable lifestyle habits
Using advanced tools such as InBody® Body Composition Analysis and FIT3D® Body Scanning, we can measure meaningful changes that traditional weight loss programs often overlook.
When patients see improvements in body composition, strength, energy, and health markers, they are more likely to achieve lasting success.
Compassionate Care From Someone Who Understands
Dr. Bretal understands that weight management is about much more than calories and willpower. Having personally experienced the challenges of weight struggles and disordered eating, she brings both professional expertise and genuine empathy to every patient interaction.
Her goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free environment where patients feel empowered, educated, and confident throughout their journey.
