Phase 1 – Medical Assessment and Personalized Weight Loss Program

Your NexSlim program begins with a comprehensive medical examination and assessment process so that the NexSlim team can custom design a weight loss program that will maximize the potential for your success.

The first step is the initial examination and resulting recommendations. This process costs $275 and will include:

  • Comprehensive blood work tailored to the individual
  • Assessment of your body mass index and current weight
  • Physical activity and exercise recommendations
  • Your personalized meal plan prepared by our dietician
  • A plan for ongoing counseling, motivation and support
  • Lipotropic injection (MIC and B12) as recommended
  • Other prescription medications as recommended
  • Supplements as recommended

Once you start the NexSlim program, you will need to visit the clinic weekly for check-ups and consultation so that your progress and health can be monitored. These weekly visits will cost $75 per week and will include:

  • Monitoring of your blood pressure
  • Monitoring of your current weight and body mass index
  • Nutritional and activity consultation with one of our trained counselors and/or medical professional
  • Supplement replacements (as needed)
  • Lipotropic injection (MIC/B12) (as needed)
  • Counseling, motivation and support

You will continue to make weekly visits until you reach your goal weight. As a timeline estimate, the average patient will lose 20 pounds in 4 weeks; up to 60 lbs in 16 weeks. However, weight loss will vary with every individual.

Phase 2: Transition Phase

This phase of the NexSlim program will help you with the transition from the weight loss phase to the weight maintenance phase with an focused emphasis on increasing your metabolic rate through exercise and diet. This phase will normally take one month if you have lost up to 50 pounds and two months if you have lost more than 50 pounds.

The cost is $70 paid every other week when you visit the clinic. Your visits during this phase will include:

  • Monitoring of weight and body mass index
  • Monitoring of blood pressure
  • Measuring your current metabolic rate
  • Consultation with the dietician and/or medical professional
  • Ongoing counseling, motivation and support
  • Lipotropic injection

Phase 3: Long Term Maintenance

This is the very important final step in your weight loss journey since most patients need continuous monitoring to maintain their weight loss. Most studies show that long term maintenance of a year or more greatly improves your chances of lifetime weight loss.

Your visits every other week will cost $50 and will consist of:

  • Monitoring of your weight and body mass index
  • Monitoring of your blood pressure
  • Measuring your current metabolic rate
  • Consultation with our counselors and/or medical professional
  • Ongoing counseling, motivation and support

NOTE: Individual clinic fees may vary slightly depending on their specific location.

The following rules apply to NexSlim Clinics in North Carolina only. Similar rules may vary at clinics in other states depending on their state bariatric requirements. These rules are extremely important for a successful weight loss journey! Please check with your clinic for their specific scheduling requirements.

  1. You must come back at minimum in monthly intervals at your scheduled time. If you need to reschedule your appointment, it must be within 2 days of the regularly scheduled time. If you miss this 4-day window, you will be considered "Starting Over", which costs $130. This is necessary in order to comply with North Carolina State guidelines for bariatric medicine. We can only help patients who are serious about weight loss and weight maintenance.
  2. There is a $50 service charge for initial missed appointments and a $25 charge for follow-up missed appointments. To avoid this charge, please notify us to reschedule within 24 hours of your scheduled visit. A credit card will be held for new appointments.
  3. You must notify our healthcare providers if your current health condition changes or if you begin taking any new medications.
