Medical Weight Loss in Spokane Metro
Medical weight loss has become one of the most talked-about trends in healthcare today. From social media influencers to national weight loss programs, it seems like everyone is offering a solution. But with so many options out there, how do you know which program is right for you?
Dr. Shill takes the guesswork out of the process. Our approach is rooted in science, guided by a board-certified physician, and completely personalized to your health goals. Each solution is tailored to you, leading to a medical weight loss plan that works long-term and helps you feel your best.
Meet Dr. Shill
Our medical weight loss program is led by Dr. Shill, a Dual Board-Certified Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine physician, who combines advanced medical therapies with holistic wellness planning to help you lose weight safely and sustainably.
Unlike clinics that only offer a prescription for Ozempic or Mounjaro, Dr. Shill takes a full-picture approach. Every plan is customized to your body, metabolism, and lifestyle. Our patients don’t just lose weight—they learn how to maintain weight loss, regain energy, and take control of their health for good.
4 Pillars of Our Medical Weight Loss Program
Each service is designed to complement the other, making sure we take a holistic approach to the body.
1. Meal Replacement Plans
Our patients have achieved tremendous success losing weight quickly and safely through our medical meal replacement program. These plans use New Direction medical-grade products that provide balanced nutrition while keeping caloric intake low enough to encourage fat loss.
Unlike fad diets that deprive your body of key nutrients, our meal replacements are nutritionally complete and designed under physician supervision. Patients consistently report that the shakes and bars are satisfying and convenient, helping them stay consistent even during busy weeks.
By combining complete nutrition with regular follow-ups and personalized lifestyle coaching, we help patients not only shed pounds but also develop the skills and habits that keep the weight off long-term.
“Our goal isn’t just to help you lose weight—it’s to help you build a new relationship with food,” says Dr. Shill. “We teach patients how to eat for energy, balance, and vitality.”
2. Personalized Nutrition and Nutritional Cooking
At ShillMed, we know there’s no one-size-fits-all diet. That’s why your medical weight loss program begins with a detailed nutritional assessment. For some patients, this means working with our team on whole-food nutrition and custom meal planning. For others, it includes the strategic integration of meal replacements to simplify food choices while still ensuring optimal nutrition.
Our team teaches you how to cook with nutrient-dense ingredients, reduce inflammation, and manage portion sizes without feeling deprived. We make healthy eating approachable, practical, and sustainable—so that your nutrition plan fits into your real life, not the other way around.
By taking the guesswork out of what to eat, you can focus on results. Patients often notice improvements in energy, digestion, mood, and blood sugar regulation within just a few weeks.
3. Weight Loss Medication
For many people, biology makes weight loss harder than willpower alone can overcome. Hormones, metabolism, and genetics all play a role. That’s why we offer tailored FDA-approved medications as part of your supervised medical plan.
​
Dr. Shill prescribes medications such as the following:
​
-
Qsymia, which reduces appetite and cravings
-
Contrave, which helps control emotional and habitual eating
-
Saxenda, which regulates hunger signals
-
Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) and Tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound), next-generation GLP-1 therapies that help regulate insulin and appetite for powerful results
Every prescription is chosen and monitored by Dr. Shill, ensuring that it’s safe, effective, and appropriate for your body. Because he is dual board-certified in both Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine, he understands how to balance metabolic therapies with overall wellness.
4. Personal Training and Lifestyle Wellness
Exercise is a vital part of long-term health—but it should never feel overwhelming. That’s why ShillMed integrates personal training and lifestyle wellness into every medical weight loss plan.
We meet you where you are. Whether you’re new to exercise or are getting back into shape, our fitness strategies are designed to fit your ability, time, and goals. Together, we’ll build a plan that improves your cardiovascular health, boosts metabolism, and strengthens muscles and joints.
Movement is about more than burning calories—it’s about reclaiming strength and confidence. With consistency and support, our patients find they sleep better, think more clearly, and feel more in control of their health every day.
Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy (OMT): Addressing Pain and Mobility
Weight changes, whether due to obesity or medical weight loss, can put added strain on your body. It’s common to experience joint discomfort, tension, or misalignment during your wellness journey. That’s where Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy (OMT) comes in.
Dr. Shill uses gentle hands-on techniques to restore balance, mobility, and proper alignment in the musculoskeletal system. OMT helps relieve the following symptoms:
-
Low back pain
-
Neck pain
-
Rib pain
-
Migraines
-
Tension headaches
By improving circulation, joint mobility, and nerve function, OMT can make your workouts more comfortable and help you move more freely as you lose weight. It’s one of the most underappreciated tools in comprehensive medical weight management.
Why Personalized Medical Weight Loss Matters
Medical weight loss isn’t just about looking better—it’s about reclaiming your health and longevity. Generic programs and unsupervised medications can lead to nutritional deficiencies, yo-yo dieting, and metabolic slowdown. That’s why personalized care from a physician such as Dr. Shill makes such a difference.
When your plan is guided by a board-certified expert, every step is data-driven and safe. We evaluate lab work, body composition, and metabolic function to design a strategy that works for your unique biology.
Patients often experience the following:
-
Steady, healthy fat loss
-
Increased energy and focus
-
Improved blood pressure and cholesterol levels
-
Better sleep and mood
-
Long-term weight stability
At ShillMed, we celebrate progress, not perfection. Whether your goal is to lose 10 pounds or over 100, we’re with you every step of the way.
