Medi-Weight Loss

What Medi-Weight Loss does

Medi-Weightloss, operated by Medi IP, LLC, is a private US medical weight loss company founded in 2006 and headquartered in Staten Island, New York. It runs a 137-clinic network delivering physician-supervised, evidence-based weight management programs to individual consumers across the United States, supported by a franchise model and a dedicated franchise microsite. The company markets itself explicitly against digital and app-based weight loss offerings, positioning licensed clinicians (physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses) as the core delivery mechanism, with cumulative patient outcomes of 10 million pounds lost and a published average of 29 pounds lost in 13 weeks per a Journal of Public Health study.

The core technology is a clinical protocol rather than a software platform: an integrated care pathway combining initial medical assessment, body composition analysis, lab work, and ongoing in-person supervision with pharmacotherapy (FDA-approved Wegovy and Zepbound plus compounded semaglutide, tirzepatide, liraglutide, phentermine, and phendimetrazine), hormone optimization, IV therapy, vitamin and nutrition injections, and lifestyle coaching delivered through the MediLiving program. Specialized offerings include an Adolescent Program and a Corporate Wellness channel, and branded supplements and program-related products are sold through a shop.mediweightloss.com e-commerce storefront.

The business model is multi-stream: monthly subscription-style program fees, transaction-based revenue from weight loss medications and supplemental services, insurance reimbursement at in-network locations, HSA/FSA acceptance, annual corporate wellness contracts, e-commerce product sales, and franchise royalties. The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, with a toll-free 1-877-MED-LOSS phone line and a location-finder website driving patient acquisition into local clinics.

Emerging players

• Ro (Roman): Telehealth platform with a dedicated weight-loss offering (Ro Body) that prescribes GLP-1s and tirzepatide variants. Comparable to Medi-Weightloss as a medical-channel GLP-1 provider targeting the same patient population, but fully virtual with no in-person clinic infrastructure.
• Found: Digital weight-loss clinic prescribing GLP-1s and other anti-obesity medications with behavior-change coaching. Directly comparable to Medi-Weightloss in combining medical supervision with prescription therapy, but operates 100% online versus Medi-Weightloss's 137 physical clinics.
• Hims & Hers Health: Direct-to-consumer telehealth brand that has rapidly scaled GLP-1 weight-loss offerings. Comparable to Medi-Weightloss in serving consumer demand for medical weight loss with prescription therapy, but delivered through an asynchronous platform with no physical clinic footprint.
• Noom (Noom Med): Digital health platform offering behavior-change weight management plus clinician-prescribed GLP-1 medications (Noom Med). Comparable to Medi-Weightloss as a direct competitor for the same end-consumer seeking medical weight loss, but delivered through telehealth/app rather than physical clinics.

Direct peers

• Lindora Clinic: Long-established physician-supervised weight-loss and wellness clinic chain in California offering medically managed programs including GLP-1 medications. Closest direct peer to Medi-Weightloss in clinic-based, physician-led medical weight loss with insurance acceptance and recurring weekly visits.
• HMR (Health Management Resources / Boston Medical Center): Hospital-affiliated intensive medical weight-management program offering in-clinic and at-home protocols with physician oversight. Comparable to Medi-Weightloss as a clinically rigorous, physician-supervised weight-loss program, though typically embedded in hospital systems rather than franchise retail locations.
• Profile by Sanford Health: Multi-site weight-management program owned by Sanford Health offering personalized coaching and clinical oversight at neighborhood locations. Comparable to Medi-Weightloss as a multi-clinic, coach-supervised weight-loss franchise with in-person weekly visits and structured programs.
• Coastal Medical Weight Loss & Wellness: Regional physician-supervised medical weight-loss clinic group offering GLP-1 medications, hormone optimization, and B12/lipotropic injections. Comparable to Medi-Weightloss as a clinical, in-person weight-loss clinic franchise leveraging the same physician-supervised + adjunct services playbook at smaller scale.

Broad incumbents

• Weight Watchers (WW): Iconic consumer weight-management brand now offering clinician-prescribed GLP-1s through WW Clinic. Comparable to Medi-Weightloss as a national weight-loss brand with both behavioral coaching and medication pathways, but operates primarily through digital/app delivery rather than physician-staffed clinics.
• Jenny Craig: Legacy branded weight-loss program combining portion-controlled meals with coaching, now offering GLP-1 integrations. Comparable to Medi-Weightloss as a national consumer weight-loss brand with structured programs, but historically meal-based rather than physician-supervised.
