Rx Weight Loss & Wellness is a long-established physician-led medical weight loss clinic in Sarasota with over 20 years serving the area, under Medical Director Robert Ford, MD, a family medicine physician who graduated from Rush Medical College in 1984 and has roughly 40 years of clinical experience. Dr. Ford became Medical Director of Suncoast Family Practice in Sarasota in 1993 and joined Rx Weight Loss as Medical Director in 2007, bringing more than 30 years focused on medical weight management. The program is physician-led and individualized: a new-patient workup includes an exam with Dr. Ford, an EKG, and calculation of BMI and body-fat percentage for ongoing comparison, with each program level tailored to the patient's metabolism rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. It positions itself on experienced MD oversight and durable, personalized results rather than rapid med-spa style protocols. Dr. Ford is affiliated with Doctors Hospital and Sarasota Memorial Hospital.
