Conditions Treated
Medical Weight Loss
Root-cause medical weight loss — addressing insulin resistance, hormonal imbalance, metabolic dysfunction, and leptin resistance for lasting results.
Understanding the Condition
What Is Medical Weight Loss?
Struggling to lose weight despite diet and exercise is rarely a willpower problem — it's a biology problem. Conventional approaches ignore the underlying hormonal, metabolic, and inflammatory drivers that make weight loss difficult or impossible for many people. Dr. Green takes a precision medicine approach, identifying and correcting the root causes that are keeping your body in fat-storage mode.
At Viata Medical, medical weight loss is never a one-size-fits-all protocol. Your program is built around your labs, your history, and your goals — combining advanced diagnostics, targeted therapeutics, and sustainable lifestyle strategies.

- Full sex hormone panel (testosterone, estradiol, DHEA-S, SHBG)
- Cortisol rhythm (4-point salivary or DUTCH panel)
- Leptin level
- Adiponectin
- Comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP)
- Lipid panel with advanced markers (LDL particle size, ApoB)
- Inflammatory markers (hsCRP, homocysteine)
- HbA1c and fasting glucose
- Micronutrient panel (B12, D3, magnesium, zinc, iron)

Root Cause Medicine, Not Just Symptom Management
Weight that won't budge is almost always a signal from your body that something deeper is off. Insulin resistance causes your cells to stop responding to insulin, driving fat storage — especially around the abdomen. Leptin resistance means your brain never receives the 'I'm full' signal, keeping hunger elevated. Thyroid dysfunction slows every metabolic process. Cortisol dysregulation from chronic stress promotes fat storage and muscle breakdown. Estrogen and testosterone imbalances shift body composition. Gut microbiome disruption affects calorie extraction and inflammation. Dr. Green tests for all of these — and treats the ones that are actually driving your weight.
Your initial consultation is a comprehensive 60-minute deep dive into your entire health history — in person at our Greenwood, Indiana clinic or via telehealth.

Give Your Body What It Needs to Thrive
Nutrition and supplements are about more than simply taking a daily vitamin. Your body needs the right nutrients, in the right amounts, to support energy, metabolism, hormones, immune function, and overall health. The challenge is knowing what your body actually needs.
At Viata Medical, we look beyond a basic supplement list. By evaluating your nutrition status, genetics, and laboratory results, we can identify areas where your body may need additional support. Your genetics can give us insight into your body's unique nutritional needs, while your current labs and nutritional status help us understand what your body needs right now. We then combine this information to create a personalized nutrition and supplement plan designed to support your health, wellness, and longevity.
