Physician supervised weight loss is safer and more effective because a medical provider evaluates your health history, labs, and medications before anything is prescribed. Weight loss affects blood sugar, blood pressure, thyroid function, and muscle mass. At Finger and Associates in Savannah, your plan is built around your medical picture, not a generic template, and it is adjusted as your body responds.

Yes. Every medication and protocol we use is FDA approved or compounded through a licensed pharmacy, and it is prescribed only after a one on one medical evaluation. Safety comes from proper screening, correct dosing, and ongoing follow up. That is exactly what medical supervision provides and what online sellers cannot.

Yes. We offer GLP-1 medications in injectable form, and we can talk with you about oral options during your consultation. Which one is right for you depends on your health history, your goals, and how your body tolerates the medication.

No. Dosing is individualized. Two people at the same starting weight can need very different doses and very different titration schedules. This is why a one on one consult is required before we begin. We start you at an appropriate dose and adjust based on your response, your tolerance, and your results.

Weight Loss medication ordered online often comes from unverified sources with no medical oversight, no dose adjustment, and no accountability. You may receive a product that is mislabeled, underdosed, overdosed, or not what it claims to be. There is also no one monitoring you for side effects or drug interactions. A prescription from a physician who has examined you is the only safe path.

Dr. Finger is a board certified plastic surgeon with decades of experience in Savannah, and his practice has long focused on the connection between health, hormones, and how the body ages. That background matters,  because every treatment plan starts an understanding of the whole patient, not just the surface concern they came in with. Rather than treating skin, weight, or hormones as separate issues, Dr. Finger looks at how they work together, and builds a plan that reflects that.

Yes it is recommended to commit to non-invasive skin tightening treatments during and after the weight loss. Dr. Finger offers many options to prevent and treat sagging skin on the face and body. 

 Weekly weight loss injections can be performed in the office if you prefer. Many patients start in the office and move to self injection once they feel comfortable, and some simply come in every week. Either way works.
