Our Focus

Obesity is a risk that everyone can face, but some groups, like the South Asian community, are more susceptible due to specific risk factors like genetics, lifestyle, and other comorbidities. At Halton Medix, we specialize in providing accessible weight management programs tailored to the unique needs of the South Asian community, who are often at a higher risk for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

We understand that many treatment options currently available do not consider the cultural barriers that many South Asians face. That’s why our approach supports your lifestyle and identity while helping you reach your best weight. We offer services in multiple languages and provide meal planning using your regular diet.

Our Approach

Our approach focuses on five crucial steps of the patient journey: Ask, Assess, Advise, Agree, and Assist.

Recognition of obesity as a chronic disease

Obesity is a complex, chronic disease that requires an individualized treatment plan with long-term support. We believe in a patient-centred and patient-led approach, meaning we won’t push you towards a plan you are not ready for.

Assessment

The initial appointment with our physician serves as an assessment tool to understand your history, challenges, and short- and long-term goals. Patients fill out an intake form, which the physician then uses to set a baseline and address urgent concerns.

Discussion of treatment options

We offer various treatment options depending on your history and goals. Our focus is on four main aspects of treatment: behavioural interventions, medical nutrition therapy, pharmacotherapy, and bariatric surgery.
