KairWell Weight and Wellness specialists work with superior partners who complete weight loss surgery (bariatric surgery) to help you effectively reach your goal weight and maintain it for a lifetime. Your provider may refer you to a bariatric surgeon during a telehealth visit.

What should I expect during telehealth visits?

During telehealth visits with KairWell Weight and Wellness, your provider calls you at your scheduled appointment time. They discuss your current body weight, body mass index (BMI), medical history, symptoms, lifestyle habits, and goal weight.

Your weight loss specialist may complete a physical exam virtually or recommend undergoing in-person blood tests or other diagnostic tests as needed. 

After personalizing a healthy weight management plan that’s best for you, your provider helps you reach and maintain your goal weight. The team will utilize virtual counseling, weight loss medications if needed, personal training, weight loss surgery referrals, or combinations of these treatments. 

They follow up with you periodically to ensure your program works effectively and answer questions or concerns you may have.

How often should I schedule telehealth appointments?

Your weight loss specialist lets you know how often to schedule telehealth visits at KairWell Weight and Wellness. You might visit with your medical provider weekly, at least initially, and less often as you progress through your weight loss journey. 

Schedule appointments if you experience new or unusual symptoms or have questions about your wellness plan. In-person visits at KairWell Weight and Wellness are also available, and they’re sometimes required to check your vital signs or complete diagnostic tests.
