Medical Consultation for Weight Loss

At our clinic in Lisbon, we offer weight-loss consultations with Dr. Rita Marques, a physician specializing in integrative health, metabolism, and weight management. This program is recommended for people who have already tried various approaches without success and are looking for a serious, effective clinical plan tailored to how their body works.

This is a personalized treatment approach, developed based on scientific evidence and focused on safety, active listening, and sustainable results.

If you’ve tried several diets, experimented with different workout strategies, or followed meal plans without achieving lasting results, you may be dealing with deeper underlying causes—such as hormonal imbalances, chronic inflammation, or changes in your gut microbiota.

A medical consultation for weight loss is the first step toward understanding these causes and starting a personalized treatment plan focused on your overall health and long-term well-being.

• A comprehensive and detailed clinical evaluation with Dr. Rita Marques
• Analysis of medical history, body composition, and lifestyle
• A treatment strategy tailored to each patient’s individual circumstances
• The option to prescribe weight-loss medications, when clinically indicated and always safely
• Investigation of possible causes of difficulty losing weight, such as: – Hormonal imbalances
  – Silent inflammation
  – Changes in the gut microbiota
  – Emotional and metabolic factors

• People who have tried diets and other methods without success
• Patients with diagnosed obesity or persistent overweight
• People who have trouble losing weight even when they eat a balanced diet
• Patients with hormonal imbalances, insulin resistance, or other metabolic factors
• People seeking safe, compassionate, and science-based medical care

After the initial consultation, a treatment plan may be established that includes:

• Tailored dietary strategies
• Guidance on Supplements and Lifestyle
• Monitoring of Clinical Progress
• Use of prescription medication, if necessary
• Referral to a nutrition plan with a team specialist, if applicable

The goal is not just to lose weight, but to restore the body’s balance, improve metabolic health, and promote sustainable results.
