W8MD weight loss program reviews - Philadelphia

I started 7 months ago and have lost 60 lbs. It may sound slow, but it worked for me, and I lost inches. We all have been on diets that you start off great and then fall off. This is the first diet that I have had success on. Dr. Tumpati and his staff is great. If you have any concerns about anything he always guides you through it. I also like that he is a Dr. so if your on any prescriptions he can monitor you as you go along. I have more energy and feel great. I am very happy that I started with this program. - Rachel on Google Reviews Dr. Tumpati and his staff are absolutely amazing, kind and caring. He can work with anybody from kids to the elderly. He individualizes the program to suit your needs and will get you the results you always wanted. You will be extremely happy that you came. Ann Marie G. King of Prussia W8MD weight loss center reviews

I have been following the W8MD plan since March of 2014. I switched doctors to Dr Tumpati in May of 2014. To date I have 40 lbs off and have kept it off since September of this year. It is the easiest plan I have ever been on. I have tried NutrySystem, Jenny Craig and am a lifetime member of Weight watchers. I have never been successful in losing this much weight let alone keeping it off for any significant time. Dr Tumpati and his staff are wonderful. He takes his time with you and makes sure you are medically stable and healthy enough to begin the program. I have Crohn’s disease and have had 2 bowel surgeries and have spent 15 years in and out of the hospital on numerous meds and dealing with horrendous pain and side effects. Since starting this plan, there is NO trace of Crohn’s disease in my body and I am pain free… including my chronic hip and knee pain. I slept better, my mood is better and overall feel the best I have felt in years! A Philadelphia weight loss patient
My doctor recommended that I go for a sleep study and I found I had obstructive sleep apnea. I got a CPAP machine and a few months later, I still wasn’t feeling good, so Dr. Tumpati recommended I try to lose weight. Under his supervision, I started my journey on June 16, 2015 and I went on the Medication “Contrave” and had no side effects. Within 10 days to 2 weeks I started feeling better already. I can walk an hour without stopping which would never have happened before, and I can climb steps. I’m up to 200 stairs per day. My wife asked me to stop using my machine and told me that I am not snoring anymore. I stopped taking my high blood pressure medicine. I have more energy and to date, with the help of Dr. Tumpati and Laura, 9 months later, I am down 75 pounds and have lost 10 inches in my waist and 13 inches in my hips. I feel so good, I’ve decided to work an extra two years (I’m almost 65). - Tom G. Philadelphia weight loss patient.
Awesome Doctor definitely recommend has great bedside manners. If you are looking to lose weight this is the place to go, it will change your life..AMAZING staff THEY ARE VERY FRIENDLY , the staff in the front have the whole office running smoothly all are well trained, great personality and have the ability to multi task regardless of the heavy volume of patients they see! A patient on Google Plus
I’ve been going to Dr. Tumpati at the King of Prussia location for about 9 months and have lost 150 pounds*. I was at a point where my weight was affecting my life and health, ignoring it was no longer an option. I wanted to lose weight safely, but effectively, yet most people said it was impossible. It was time to hire a professional. Dr. Tumpati and staff have been great explaining every step of the process and making sure I stay on track. The accountability and constant encouragement have been key parts of my success, as well as the knowledge that I was following a plan that would work and had actual medical science to back it. I am not finished losing yet, but as compared to 9 months ago, I know I’m already healthier, now’s its just finishing the journey. This path isn’t easy but if you’ve had enough of your weight being an impact on your health and life, considering getting help like Dr. Tumpati and his staff. It will make it easier. A happy loser!

I have tried every diet available. Some were successful at first, but then they all failed. I was severely over weight, which was dangerous to my health. I met doctor Tumpati by chance. When he told me he was a diet doctor I told him I would be visiting him soon. The doctor is very kind, and patient. He takes blood pressure and body measurements every visit besides your weight.
There are some medications involved but the doctor is flexible and helpful if changes are needed or a medication needs to be discontinued or changed. So far I have lost 42 pounds* with 18 to go before my youngest daughter's 21st birthday trip to Hawaii. Doctor Tumpati is very encouraging and kind. Laura is very helpful, she is there to work with you so you succeed. She can be reached by phone for appointment changes or if you run out of food. The doctor and staff become your friends. I highly recommend W8MD. - Lennie C on Google Reviews

My appt with Dr Tumpati was great he asked me questions about the problems that I've been having and after I answered him we discussed it. He was very professional but very down to earth as well. I will definitely be seeing him in the future. And his secretery/nurse Laura has been excellent as well there was a problem getting a medication filled it had to be pre-authorized and she made many phone calls to make sure that I was able to get the medication filled!!! So my overall experience at this office was excellent!!!! - David T.

Dr. Tumpati and staff were very courteous. The doctor took time to explain my condition, the methods to treat it, and his recommendation for treatment in my particular case. I was not rushed in and out in 5 minutes as with many other doctors. I would recommend Dr. Tumpati to others - Verified patient.
