Medical Weight Loss in Weatherford
Weatherford weight loss with a physician who sees the whole picture
- Board-Certified Physicians, Not a Med Spa
- Labs Drawn in Our Weatherford Office
- GLP-1 Medications Where They Fit
Our Approach
Weight loss that starts with a doctor's evaluation
A lot of weight loss offers begin with a questionnaire and a prescription. Ours begins with a physician visit. You sit down with a doctor board-certified in internal medicine, the specialty built around adult health, who reviews your history, your medications, and the conditions that make weight harder to lose, like thyroid disease or rising blood sugar. Bloodwork is drawn in our Weatherford office. If a GLP-1 medication makes sense for you, we prescribe it and monitor it ourselves. Text us ahead and we will check what your plan covers.
Excellent care and a welcoming environment. The staff is professional, kind, and attentive from the moment you walk in, and the doctors take the time to listen, explain everything clearly, and truly care. Highly recommended for quality medical care in Fort Worth.
Why Choose Us
Why a doctor makes the difference
A Real Physician in Weatherford
Your plan is set by a doctor board-certified in internal medicine, the specialty built around adult health, who sees you in person at our Weatherford office and understands how weight, blood sugar, blood pressure, and your medications all connect.
In-Town Labs
Instead of a form you filled out online, your plan and your medication rest on actual numbers: we draw bloodwork at the Weatherford office, and many results are back during the visit.
Monitored Safely, Visit After Visit
GLP-1 medications are prescribed only where they fit your health, and we keep watching after the first prescription: side effects, labs, blood pressure, and how the dose is working. This is a medical practice, not a prescription service.
A Team and Telehealth for Follow-Ups
Check-ins between visits can happen by secure video, and if your doctor is out, another provider in our group can see you with your records already open in front of them.
Conditions We Treat
Weight-related conditions we manage alongside you
Excess Weight
Physician-guided care for adults carrying weight that is affecting their health, with a plan built around your labs, your other conditions, and GLP-1 medication where it fits.
Diabetes & Prediabetes
Blood sugar that is climbing or already diagnosed, checked with in-office labs and managed with a plan treating weight and sugar together.
High Blood Pressure
Weight and blood pressure tend to move together. We monitor and treat hypertension inside the same plan, so progress on one helps the other.
High Cholesterol
Cholesterol screening, treatment, and cardiovascular risk management, so the work you put into losing weight also lowers the risks that matter most.
Thyroid Conditions
An underactive or overactive thyroid can work against you. We test for it, treat it, and keep monitoring it while you work on your weight.
Sleep Apnea & Poor Sleep
Snoring, waking up tired, and daytime fatigue often travel with extra weight. We can arrange a home sleep study through the practice and review the results with you as part of your plan.
Weight-Related Joint Pain
Extra weight is hard on knees, hips, and backs. We treat the pain, including joint injections here, while you work on the weight.
Overlapping Conditions
Diabetes, blood pressure, cholesterol, and weight managed together by one team, so no part of your health gets handled in isolation.
Our Services
What our weight loss care includes
Physician-Guided Weight Loss Plan
A plan set by a physician after an in-person evaluation, built around your history, your labs, and your goals.
GLP-1 Medication Management
GLP-1 medications prescribed where they are the right fit, with dosing, side effects, and coverage questions handled by the doctor who knows your case.
In-Office Labs & Bloodwork
Bloodwork drawn in our Weatherford office, often with results during the same visit, so your thyroid, blood sugar, and cholesterol are checked before you start and again along the way.
Ongoing Monitoring Visits
Regular follow-ups to review your weight, your numbers, and how any medication is working, with adjustments made by your doctor rather than a call center.
Telehealth Follow-Ups
Secure video visits for check-ins and questions that do not need an exam, so staying on track does not always mean a trip to the office.
Related Condition Care
Diabetes, blood pressure, cholesterol, and thyroid conditions managed in the same visits by the same team, as one plan instead of several.

Meet Your Providers
The team behind your weight loss plan
Board-Certified Physicians and an Experienced Team
Medical Associates of North Texas is a group practice, and that matters when your weight loss plan includes medication. Ravi Siripurapu, MD, Suresh Kankanala, MD, Ganesh Arun, DO, and Chandramohan Mudaliar, MD are each board-certified in internal medicine, the specialty built around adult health. They lead a team of experienced physician assistants and a family nurse practitioner, including a physician assistant based in our Weatherford office.
For weight loss patients, the group provides the in-person evaluation, in-office bloodwork, GLP-1 prescribing where it fits, medication monitoring, and management of the conditions that travel with weight: type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and thyroid disease. Telehealth covers the follow-ups that do not need an exam.
A check-in with a PA, or a visit on a day your doctor is out, is a continuation rather than a reset, since the whole group shares one chart and one plan for you. With offices in Weatherford and Fort Worth, getting seen stays simple.

FAQ
Your questions, answered
Do you accept my insurance?
Most major insurance plans are accepted here. GLP-1 coverage differs widely from plan to plan; send a text or call before your visit and we will look up what yours covers.
How quickly can I be seen?
Usually soon. We prioritize keeping same and next-day openings available Monday through Friday at both offices, and first weight loss visits get room on the schedule rather than a wait of weeks. Weekday walk-ins are welcome as well, with a quick text first so we can confirm a slot. Follow-ups can often happen by telehealth.
Do I need a referral to be seen?
In most cases no referral is needed to see us for medical weight loss. A few insurance plans ask for one, and our staff can help you find out if yours does.
What should I bring to my first visit?
Your insurance card, a photo ID, and a list of your medications and any supplements you take. Recent labs, records from a previous doctor, or notes on past weight loss attempts, including any medications you tried, help the physician start with the full picture.
Are you accepting new patients?
Yes. Both our Weatherford office and our Fort Worth office are taking new adult patients, and first visits get room on the schedule rather than a date weeks out.
MANT has been such a breath of fresh air. The staff is always on time, everything runs smoothly, and my PA Nicole Barnes goes above and beyond, the kindest and most thorough provider I’ve had. Easy online scheduling and labs on site.
Physician-Guided Medical Weight Loss in Weatherford
Medical weight loss in Weatherford means something specific at Medical Associates of North Texas: a physician evaluates you, orders and reviews your labs, prescribes medication only where it fits, and keeps managing your health as you work on the weight. That is different from a med spa or an app, where a questionnaire often stands in for an exam. Our physicians are board-certified in internal medicine, the specialty built around adult health, which is exactly where weight lives for most adults: next to blood sugar, cholesterol, sleep, joint pain, and a list of medications that may be working against you. GLP-1 medications are a real tool, and we prescribe them when they are the right fit, with honest expectations. They are not for everyone, they take time, and they work best with a doctor adjusting the plan along the way. We teach the nutrition side as physicians, inside the visit, rather than running a separate program. If you live in or around Weatherford and want weight loss handled like the medical issue it is, our office on Fort Worth Hwy is in town, with Fort Worth as a second option.
What Happens at Your Weatherford Visits
Your first visit at 2111 Fort Worth Hwy is a full evaluation, not a sign-up. The physician goes through your history, your medications, past attempts at losing weight, and the conditions that make it harder: thyroid disease, type 2 diabetes or rising blood sugar, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and sleep problems. Your bloodwork is drawn right there, and many results come back while you are still in the room, so the plan starts from your numbers rather than estimates. When a GLP-1 medication fits your health, and once we have checked what your plan covers, we write the prescription ourselves and set a follow-up schedule to track side effects, dosing, and progress. If a home sleep study is warranted, we arrange it through the practice. Joint pain that is slowing you down can be treated here, including joint injections. Some of those follow-ups, the ones with no exam involved, can be done by secure video. Behind every visit is a physician-led group: Ravi Siripurapu, MD, Suresh Kankanala, MD, Ganesh Arun, DO, and Chandramohan Mudaliar, MD, board-certified in internal medicine, the specialty for adult health, with physician assistants and a family nurse practitioner who share one chart with them, so whoever you see picks up your plan where it stands.
A great office with a very attentive staff. The providers always take their time and are incredibly thorough. I’ve been going here for about 10 years and will keep coming back.
Manpreet Rattan was so attentive to my concerns and genuinely caring. She took the time to explain everything and map out a plan to better my health, and the staff is lovely.
Two Locations, Same Physicians
Our Weatherford office is at 2111 Fort Worth Hwy, Weatherford, TX 76086, and our Fort Worth office is at 1023 Lipscomb St, Suite 200, Fort Worth, TX 76104. Both are open Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, and both answer at one phone and text number, 972-544-6600. One group of board-certified physicians leads both offices, which means a Weatherford patient gets the same weight loss care without driving into Fort Worth. Most patients start by texting; we reply to confirm a time, and online scheduling shows real openings by office, provider, and visit type. For insurance, including GLP-1 coverage, we check what your plan covers before you come in rather than guessing. Across our two offices, more than 1,800 patients have rated us 4.8 stars on Google, and the comments repeat the same things: staff who are friendly and caring, doctors who explain clearly, visits that are never rushed. We care for adults only. We are accepting new patients in Weatherford and in Fort Worth, with room held on the schedule so a first visit does not sit weeks out.
