Weight loss medications may double or triple the weight-loss you get from diet and exercise. Most other medical weight-loss programs give you only one option for a weight-loss medicine. If you are not a candidate to receive that weight-loss medicine, or if it stops working, you are out of luck. However, our clinicians consider multiple options when helping you choose the best weight-loss medication for you.
If one medication is not an option, you will be presented other possible weight loss medications, each of which works in a completely different way. When you see Dr. Marlowe or Natasha, a weight-loss medication will be recommended which works well for you, and it will be changed if necessary. We currently prescribe more than 30 different medications for weight loss, which provides the most of any medical weight loss center in the United States!

Services
Dr. Marlowe graduated cum laude in 1995 from the Ivy League's Dartmouth College and in 1999 from the Indiana University School of Medicine. Thomas Marlowe, M.D. completed his internship at the University of Massachusetts and his residency in Family Medicine at Indiana University. In 2005, Dr. Marlowe moved to Charlotte, N.C. to open the Weight Loss Institute where he practices bariatric medicine.
Knock on wood, but at this point it's been easy. And nothing has been easy since I was 12. It's not some crazy system where you have to race to the finish. It's something I feel I can continue moving forward and long-term. I went shopping and I went to the size 14's, and they were too large, so I went to the 12's and they wouldn't fit either.
My life insurance premium - they lowered it from $139 a month to $79 a month after 3 months of seeing Dr. Marlowe. And after coming off diabetes medicines, I'm actually saving money each month seeing Dr. Marlowe. I'm the #1 most successful loser in the whole history of the Curves I go to. The owner asked me to write my story so he could put the story and a picture of me on the wall at the gym.
During your first visit, Dr. Marlowe or Natasha Rudd will give you a full physical (focused on finding causes and complications of obesity) and review your current medications. The medications you currently take may be causing you to gain weight. You will be asked many questions about your past diets, failures and successes, your eating habits, and exercise routine.

I had phone appointment with Dr. Marlowe as do not want to visit office till I am vaccinated. The office very happily set up the appointment and more then willingly took my card information, promised very happily to mail my prescription the next day.
After waiting for a week I called the office Dean gave me tracking number of my order. I checked where delivery service could not find my address, never called or showed up.
Back to Dean where he asked me to call the delivery service to find my order, if they cannot find my delivery make a claim and fill up the paperwork. Later file it with this

I am not too keen on doing reviews unless it is truly necessary. Dr Marlowe was my initial doctor many years ago and I ended up making a HUGE mistake... I left Dr. Marlowe and went to a Novant doctor only on the basis of my insurance being accepted by Novant. This was absolutely NOT worth it. This doctor was inconsiderate, unprofessional, and unknowledgeable. Long story short, I am now back with Marlowe and his amazing staff. I always feel welcomed and at home every time I enter his office. This guy really cares about my well-being. I am here to stay...

Dr. Marlowe is THE best Dr. I am a 40 yr old FTM & see him for that, as well as weight-loss. I have to say that he is the only Dr I've ever seen who is non-judgemental, who's treated me like a decent human-being & who has been very supportive in helping me to succeed in losing 60 pds (so far).
I have had 2 back surgeries & ankle surgery. Before my weight-loss, I was in pain constantly, felt lethargic, & was dealing with depression, as well as anxiety. Through him teaching me what to eat & what kind of exercises I should be doing, my pain level has decreased to almost nothing, I feel better on

I absolutely love this place! I have been successful with weight control for the first time in my life! Dr. Marlowe understands the struggle and is sincere in his desire to help. He is as much a teacher as a doctor! The lady at the front desk is very helpful in scheduling appointments and has been so nice each time I've had to reschedule appointments. The long distance I travel is worth it for the results I have had and the cost is VERY reasonable!

I had just about given up on ever loosing weight. My body was very happy where it was. I have tried Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, every pill, and shake. When I made the appointment with Dr. Marlowe office, I thought this is it, if I do not loose then I can say I tried and accept defeat. I have battled my weight for so long and I would loose a few pounds and gain the same weight back within a short amount of time.
I have now been going to Dr. Marlowe for a few months. His technique is different than other health care/weight management doctors. He teaches you!! Now I know what to look for on labels

I have been seeing Dr. Marlowe for several months, and I’m very pleased with my results. I have tried many diets and other weight loss tools in the past, but have never had this much success.
In addition, I‘m learning a lot about how certain foods can affect my weight and body. I’ve also learned the difference in exercise programs and how effective Interval training can be.
If you’ve struggled with weight loss in the past, and want to finally succeed, I strongly suggest going to Dr. Marlowe.
