FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BROWARD DOCTOR INTRODUCES SLIM-MED MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM TO THE PUBLIC

As a family practice physician for over ten years, Dr. Wiqar Sheikh, M.D. has seen the toll excess weight has taken on the health of his patients and their families. After years of telling his patients to diet, he realized he needed to offer a better, more scientific solution.
“Obesity is a medical condition and as physicians, we cannot sit back and treat hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, etc. without looking at the most common root of the problem – excess weight,” explained Dr. Sheikh.
Dr. Sheikh created the Slim-Med program to help his patients lose weight and improve their overall health. His patients have seen remarkable results, often losing up to 25 pounds the first month.
“Best of all,” says Dr. Sheikh, “my patients have been able to reduce or even stop their medication altogether!  Even a moderate amount of weight loss showed measurable health improvement.”
Dr. Sheikh has recently opened his weight loss center, Slim-Med, to the public. The program combines a comprehensive, low-glycemic nutritional plan with medication and supplements for optimal weight loss. Slim-Med has recently added Lipotropic B12 injections to its protocol.
