Medical Weight Loss in NJ: Your Program Options
At Nusbaum Medical Centers, medical weight loss in NJ is never one-size-fits-all. After a full health review, Dr. Nusbaum builds a plan around the approach that fits your body and goals — from GLP-1 injections to surgical options for those who qualify. As the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery notes, choosing an experienced, credentialed physician is the single most important factor in safe, durable weight loss — which is exactly why New Jersey patients choose Dr. Nusbaum.
- Semaglutide — a once-weekly GLP-1 injection that helps patients lose up to 15% of their body weight.
- Tirzepatide — a dual-hormone GLP-1 therapy that can deliver up to 20% body-weight loss.
- Surgical weight loss — including gastric sleeve and bypass, for patients who need a more powerful, lasting solution.
- Doctor-supervised nutrition — genetic, keto and HCG-based plans built around your metabolism.
Every option is monitored in-house, so you are never managing your weight loss alone. Explore all of our weight-loss and aesthetic services or call (973) 998-9833 to find the right starting point.
Why Choose Nusbaum for Medical Weight Loss in NJ
With more than 25 years and 25,000+ patients, Dr. Michael Nusbaum is one of New Jersey's most trusted physicians for medical weight loss. He is a board-certified surgeon and a recognized authority in metabolic and bariatric medicine — and because his practice offers every option under one roof, your recommendation is honest, not driven by a single service. That breadth, paired with 2,000+ five-star reviews, is why patients across New Jersey travel to our Cedar Knolls center.
It also means safer care. Prescription weight-loss medications work best when a physician is monitoring your dosing, labs and progress — adjusting along the way and watching for anything that needs attention. At Nusbaum Medical Centers, that supervision is built into every medical weight loss program from day one.
