We actually see you. You’re not filling out a questionnaire and getting a vial in the mail. You sit down with a medical provider who examines you, runs your labs, checks your body composition, and adjusts your medication based on how you’re responding. And when you hit your goal, we don’t just wave goodbye. We have a plan for what comes next, because keeping the weight off matters more than losing it.
Patients on Dr. Sattele’s Rapid Weight Loss Program in Florence, Murrels Inlet and North Myrtle Beach, SC, can expect to lose 10-30 lbs. or more per month. Our programs are designed for fast and effective weight loss under medical supervision.

Absolutely, this is the best diet for diabetic patients! Almost all Type II Diabetic patients can eliminate insulin and oral diabetic medications if following the diet correctly. Usually within as little as 4 days, our patients will have normal blood sugars and be off all diabetic medications! Fasting blood sugars usually run between 90 and 120 mg/dl.
Not unless you are overeating. We will repeat the body composition testing when you are finished and tell you exactly how many calories and carbs you can eat per day so that you will not gain weight. If you do not overeat, you will not gain fat. This number of calories will vary from person to person so make sure you come in for that final visit so we can repeat the BIA testing and go over the results with you.
That’s a fair question, and you should ask it of anyone before letting them prescribe you anything. We prescribe FDA-approved medications sourced through licensed pharmacies, and we will explain exactly what you’re taking, where it comes from, and why it’s the right choice for your body. If we can’t explain a medication’s origin to your satisfaction, we won’t put you on it. In the case of Semaglutide (GLP-1), what we dispense is the compounded version which is not the same product as Wegovy or Ozempic. Those branded medications are FDA-approved. Compounded Semaglutided is not FDA-approved. Your medication comes from a licensed compounding pharmacy, and every dose you take is one we set. Use of compounded medications involves potential risks which we discuss with every patient.
