Case Study: My Weight Doctor achieves better patient care and seamless HD telemedicine with Lifesize

LifeSize Helps Medical Practice Empower Patients to Achieve Weight Loss Goals

My Weight Doctor is a multi-state, physician-led weight‑loss practice that grew from one clinic to five and serves thousands of patients with a holistic, EMR-driven care model. As the practice expanded, management needed a way to enable face‑to‑face specialist consults and seamless staff collaboration across locations—staff meetings were hard for remote employees to attend and patients often faced delays in seeing specialists despite the practice’s interoperable EMR.

They deployed LifeSize Express 200/220 endpoints and LifeSize Video Center (compatible with ShoreTel), mounted on portable carts and dual screens for concurrent EMR review, patient view and recording. The solution delivered HD, echo‑free video for point‑of‑care consults, remote staff meetings, and recorded CME sessions; it improved access to specialists during exams, increased training efficiency, supported recorded continuing education, enhanced patient care and set the stage for future mobile video visits.
