Michael Aziz, MD Our Services Weight Loss

Michael Aziz, MD

Primary Care Physician & Internist located in New York, NY

For Dr. Michael Aziz, weight management is not just about losing weight, it is about longevity.  Dr. Michael Aziz's plan includes  a natural balanced diet, and lifestyle changes. His plan includes: checking hormones, and nutritional deficiencies. Each patient gets an individualized program. For those who need more help, he prescribes Semaglutide (Ozempic), Tirzepatide (Mounjaro), and other advanced medications to supress hunger. In summary, Dr. Aziz 's approach targets obesity from all angles and aspects.

Dr. Aziz authored  "The Perfect 10 Diet," a national bestseller. The Perfect 10 Diet balances 10 key hormones. The book hit the number 1 spot on Amazon in 2011 for 12 consecutive weeks. The Perfect 10 Diet was featured on all major networks (ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, WGN, CNN, Telemundo, etc) and countless TV shows (The View, Dr. Oz, The Doctors) and was translated into several foreign languages. Dr. Aziz says, "both low-fat, and low-carb diets mess up hormones, therefore they are not sustainable. The Perfect 10 Diet is the only diet in the market that balances hormones, so the results are durable". The Perfect 10 Diet does not allow fake fats like margarine or transfats which are allowed on low-fat diets. Transfats are a total no-no for Dr. Aziz . The Perfect 10 Diet does not allow dangerous chemicals such as nitrites found in processed meats (bacon and sausages) which are allowed on both low-carb and keto diets for their relationships to several types cancers.
