I joined Pound of Cure about 2 years ago. I have lost about 70 lbs without surgery. My A1C is normal as well as my lipid profile. I love having an N.P. that is specialized in weight loss as well as having access to a bariatric physician. I recommend to anyone starting a journey to better health.

When I made up my mind, Dr. Weiner was definitely the right decision. He patiently presented me with all the options. His staff navigated the insurance obstacles easily. The doctor has assembled a caring professional team at Pound of Cure to take care of everything you need. Do I recommend him? Obviously!

Dr. Matthew Weiner and his team have been and continue to be a blessing in my life. I started at 325 pounds. In January of 2025 I can celebrate my consistently maintained loss of 80 pounds. A transformative experience. It all began with Dr. Weiner and support from Pound of Cure Weight Loss.

Weight Loss Medications

GLP-1 Medications Are The Most Significant Advance Since Surgery

Are you a candidate for Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound? These GLP-1 medications are incredibly effective weight loss tools. They're also expensive, hard to find, have side effects and require a meaningful change to your diet.

With the right strategy, these medications can silence the “food noise” that's kept you from succeeding in your past weight loss efforts.
