At Scottsdale Weight Loss Center, you work directly with experienced, board-certified obesity medicine physicians who take the time to understand your health, weight history, previous challenges, lifestyle and goals.

More Than a Prescription: Personalized Medical Weight Loss in Scottsdale

Weight loss is not simply a matter of willpower, and a treatment that works for one patient may not be appropriate for another. Our physicians take time to understand your medical history, previous weight loss attempts, lifestyle, eating patterns, and goals before developing an individualized plan.

Your treatment may include prescription weight loss medication, including GLP-1 medications, when appropriate. However, medication is only one tool. Depending on your needs, your plan  also incorporates nutrition education, behavioral support, activity guidance, structured meal plans, and other weight management strategies. We find what works best for you.

By considering the whole picture, our physicians can develop a medical weight loss plan that fits your health and circumstances.

Experienced Weight Loss Physicians With Ongoing Medical Oversight

Scottsdale Weight Loss Center is led by physicians with extensive experience in obesity medicine and medical weight management. 

Dr. Robert Ziltzer MD has practiced medicine in Scottsdale for more than 30 years, while Dr. Craig Primack MD has practiced in Arizona since 1997. Their experience allows patients to receive care from physicians who understand the complex factors involved in obesity and weight management.

Medical weight loss also requires ongoing attention. Your progress, medication response, treating side effects, and other relevant health markers can be monitored throughout treatment. If you encounter a plateau or your circumstances change, your physician can evaluate potential factors and adjust your treatment when appropriate. 

This continued oversight provides support beyond the initial prescription and helps you work toward long-term weight management.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr Robert Ziltzer! He helped me reach my ideal weight and more importantly maintain it for over 2 years. He has also helped me keep my blood pressure exactly where my internist wanted it. Dr Ziltzer is not only exceptional in weight management but also a truly gifted internet’s. His knowledge, kindness, and dedication are remarkable. I am deeply grateful for his care and recommend him whole heartedly!

I really felt comfortable with Kristen at my initial appointment. Everyone at the center was caring and friendly, from Bianca, at the front desk, to Lily, who is the MA. Kristen listened to my frustrations and prior disappointments about what has not worked, and is confident that she can help me achieve my goals of weight loss. I am looking forward and excited to see the success I will attain.

I'd lost 20 pounds on my own and struggled to keep it off. I decided GLP-1 meds were the next step in losing more and keeping it off. I wanted a medical doctor supervised program and chose SWLC. I am so very glad I did! The team in Glendale is so supportive and kind; and when I feel discouraged, they pick me up with positive energy and input. They really do a great job with encouragement all the time. 6 weeks in I've lost 17 pounds, and am approaching weight loss with a very new perspective. Also knowing that when I reach my target goal, they'll be there through maintenance and beyond is encouraging as well. Good to not feel alone on this journey.
