PHYSICIANS WEIGHT LOSS CENTERS REVIEWS

Two things I like the most about PWLC are having the center locally to go into and being able to talk to someone if I have questions. It made all the difference to have guidance throughout the program. And secondly, how truly easy the program is! Since starting the program, I have lost 82 pounds and 75.75 inches! I went from a size 20-22 to a 7-8 in pants and shirts from XXL+ to Small-Medium. I've pulled out all of my “skinny clothes” and they're all either loose or too big to wear! I feel so much healthier, I have tons of energy to do all the activities I love and can walk the mall and shop all day with my daughter without being tired or needing a break! She and my family are so proud of me! I'm no longer self-conscious about my weight; I love being out and about at social events and family outings. It's a wonderful feeling being asked “how much have you lost nowYou look great!” I can now run 2 miles plus, I am more outgoing and in general, happy! I am SO thankful to Lisa and PWLC for guiding me to my success.

My reasons for joining Physicians WEIGHT LOSS Centers were simple: be there to see my children grow up, attend graduations, weddings, learn to live a healthy lifestyle for my family and whatever life has to offer. Another goal that came later was the ability to run a ½ marathon. With my friends and family cheering me on, two goals were completed the day I ran in a ½ marathon. I finished the race and lost 100 pounds…I SUCCEEDED! I am a Mom and wife who doesn't hide in the shadows anymore. My family loves me unconditionally, but now I love me and it shows. My children hug me more because they can put their arms around me, my husband is proud that I have succeeded in an area that before Physicians, I always failed in. I am so happy. Truly happy. I love living and doing the things in life I never felt were possible. Thank you Physicians WEIGHT LOSS Centers.

have tried other diets and lost weight but could never keep it off. PWLC gave me the tools to lose the weight with a great support system to get to my goal weight. With this change of life, PWLC also educated you on a maintenance plan to survive in the real world after you hit your goal. The support system with the staff in Strongsville is incredible. They taught me the WILL POWER to succeed. Thank You! You have to start with the philosophy that the only person that can change your life is YOU. You have to do it for yourself. You deserve it.

DR. SIMONDS WEIGHT LOSS REVIEWS

I recently visited Dr. Simonds in Durham and had an amazing experience! From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel comfortable and supported. They took the time to listen to my goals and my needs. The team is highly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate about helping their clients succeed. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, which made every visit something I looked forward to. Thanks to their guidance and support, I’ve seen fantastic results and feel better than ever! I highly recommend Dr. Simonds to anyone looking to make a positive change in their health and lifestyle.

I thought about deleting the original review; however I felt it was most appropriate to edit it. I was really needing/hoping for an appointment and was truly disappointed that I couldn’t get one due to the holiday. Dr. Simonds office immediately responded and rectified the situation. I can honestly say out of all years I have been going off and on this is the only encounter I have ever had. Thank you so much for caring enough to help accommodate me. It is truly appreciated.

I went in today and the receptionist was very warm and friendly. She reviewed my file and realized I have been a patient years ago. I reviewed all of the online information for all weight loss centers but kept coming back to Dr. Simonds website and for good reason. I was able to get an appointment right away. I'm looking forward to this journey... Tiffany G.

METABOLIC RESEARCH CENTER REVIEWS

I have been part of MRC since 2019 when I found this amazing program while living in North Carolina. I went to the Center twice a week and was weighed in and when I hit milestones, measurements were taken and I received bracelets with the milestones amounts in 10 lb increments. I also got to sign the weight loss boards. I hit my original goal in 10 months, losing 55 lbs and I felt great. I have taken advantage of the different programs they offer and love this program. In 2025 I wanted to achieve another goal and I have now lost a total of 80 lbs. I love how I feel even if some people think I’m too thin. I’m ok with that. Since 2020 I have done this program remotely from New York. I have regular weekly check-ins with my coach, Liz, which keeps me focused and accountable. I journal everything I eat, my water intake, steps, weight training and I use the journal also as a diary which is helpful to me. I share this and my scale readings weekly whether or not it’s been a good week with Liz. I can’t say enough about this program. I love it and am a lifer on maintenance. I am living my best and heathier life due to this program. I highly recommend you check out MRC.

The Ladies at MRC are wonderful . Always friendly and keeps me up to date with Specials. I have had an awesome experience. They are great at helping me to stay on track with my goals. I would highly recommend this Center.

I have so much enjoyed the program from the metabolic research center in Durham And the people are wonderful! I have successfully reached my goal and have been able to maintain my weight! If you stick to the program, it’s really quite easy. Love it and the success that I have accomplished! Thanks to you all at MRC.
