Center for GI Weight Loss

Specialties

At the Center for GI Weight Loss, we specialize in medically supervised weight loss and lifestyle changes through meal replacement programs and life coaching in a structured team environment.

During our 18 week program, patients meet with gastroenterologist Dr. Nowain and Program Director Layla Nowain to meet their physical weight loss goals in the healthiest way possible.

Patients on average lose 50 pounds of weight loss using safe, non surgical methods. We provide expert support including medical supervision, lifestyle education and ongoing support for patients who have completed the program. Our patients see results through their determination and our doctor-​developed weight loss plan. Medications, weight loss fads, and vitamin shot gimmicks are not apart of our plan here at the Center for GI Weight Loss.

The Center for Gi Weight Loss is located in the heart of Beverly Hills on Wilshire Blvd inbetween Linden Drive and McCarty Drive.

History

Established in 1974.

The OPTIFAST Program is a medically supervised weight management program that closely monitors and assesses progress towards better health and emotional well-​being. The program, which usually lasts 18 weeks, utilizes a full meal replacement plan that transitions to self-​prepared ‘everyday’ meals, in conjunction with comprehensive patient education and support. Long term maintenance options are also available for patients looking to extend the length of the program.
