Florida Surgery & Weight Loss Center

Florida Surgery & Weight Loss Center, Hollywood, Florida

A physician-led South Florida practice spanning medical weight loss, bariatric surgery, general surgery and wellness care, offering branded semaglutide and tirzepatide alongside lifestyle strategies, with both in-office and telehealth consultations and an insurance verification service. Because it also performs bariatric surgery, it is one of the few entries here where a GLP-1 sits within a genuine range of clinical options rather than being the entire offer.

What stands out

  • Performs bariatric surgery as well as prescribing GLP-1s, so a patient can be assessed for both within one practice. Almost every other entry in this directory can only sell you the medication it stocks.
  • Names the branded products specifically — Wegovy, Ozempic, Mounjaro and Zepbound — rather than describing generic 'GLP-1 medication'.
  • Offers insurance verification, and frames options as available with or without coverage.
  • Provides both in-office and telehealth consultations across a defined South Florida service area.
  • Frames medication as one of several evidence-based approaches alongside lifestyle modification.
  • No prices are published for consultations, medication or procedures.
  • No compounded route is described, so if coverage is refused the branded cash price applies.

Questions to ask before you pay

These are things we could not settle from published pages, or that we think are easy to misread. Get answers in writing.

  • Nothing is priced. What does the consultation cost, and what will the medication cost with and without insurance?
  • If surgery is discussed, how is the choice between medication and an operation framed, and who benefits financially from each?
  • Does the insurance verification service cost anything?
  • What clinical criteria apply for GLP-1 eligibility?
  • No refund or cancellation terms are published.

May suit

A South Florida patient who wants to be assessed for the full range of options — medication and surgery — by one physician-led practice rather than sold a subscription.

Limitations

  • No published pricing of any kind.
  • South Florida only for in-person care.
  • No compounded route, so cost depends heavily on insurance.
  • No published clinical criteria, refund or cancellation terms.

Frequently asked

Why does it matter that they also do surgery?

Because it changes what advice you can expect. A telehealth platform that only sells compounded semaglutide has one answer to every question. A practice that also performs bariatric surgery can tell you when medication is the right tool, when it is not, and what the alternative involves — which for some patients, particularly at higher BMIs or after medication has failed, is the more effective option. That breadth cuts both ways, since surgery is also the higher-revenue procedure, so ask how the recommendation is arrived at.
