About Robert Skversky, MD
http://www.weightnomore.com/physicians.shtml

Originally from Philadelphia, Dr. Skversky received his medical degree from Hahnemann University (formerly Hahnemann Medical College) in 1970. He completed his family practice residency at Hoag Memorial Hospital in Newport Beach, CA, in 1973 and became a diplomate of the American Board of Family Practice the same year. Dr. Skversky is a staff physician at Hoag Memorial Hospital, a member of the American Medical Association, Orange County Medical Association, and the American Society of Bariatric Physicians. Dr. Skversky had been a family practice physician in Newport Beach for more than 22 years before practicing bariatrics full-time.

Dr. Skversky has committed the past fifteen years of his professional career to the medical treatment of the overweight and obese patient. He has been at the forefront of treating obesity as a chronic disease using combination drug therapy, in addition to diet and exercise protocols on a long term basis.

He has written numerous articles discussing the myths associated with weight control, putting diet and exercise in proper perspective, and the essential role of pharmacotherapy for long term weight loss. Dr. Skversky states, "Obesity is a metabolic, chronic and progressive disease with a significant genetic predisposition. It is similar to other diseases like diabetes and hypertension which it can cause or make worse. Chronic diseases need long term drug therapy, in most cases, for control not cure."

Dr. Skversky has been featured in the Wall Street Journal and has appeared on "Good Morning America," "The Today Show," and "The Early Show" discussing the appropriate use of medication "off-label" for long-term weight loss.

Dr. Skversky states "The goal of a prudent weight-loss program goes beyond weight loss itself, but extends to the improvement in self esteem and empowerment as unexpected gifts of long term weight-loss control. This disease obesity needs to be taken seriously, treated seriously and most important, treated with respect."

"My commitment to my patients goes far beyond just helping them lose weight. My personal hope is that success in our program will be a stepping stone to an increase in self-esteem and will inspire people to achieve and excel beyond what they thought was possible."

  • I've been thinking of taking phentermine, and I'm already taking Lexapro & Topomax for mental health. how weird !

  • @MajinTrista i also take 100 mg topamax and the only side effect i still deal with is minor tingling in my face and hands, besides that everything else is great! i originally was prescribed it as a migraine medication but im losing weight on the medication also now and i love the results <3

  • if you are willing to go through some serious side effects like losing chunks of your hair or vertigo than go for it

  • @MajinTrista when you start to taper off you will experience hell.

  • HOW MANY POUNDS DID YOU LOSE TAKING LEXAPRO AND PHENTERMINE

    THE FIRST MONTH?

  • @MajinTrista how is your vision while taking topamax?

  • I take 100MG topomax works like a charm <3 No headaches, great weight loss, always happy. :-)
