Enjoy going to my appointments at Rivas. I am taken at my time slot on time. The staff is a pleasure to talk to, they are very well informed about GLP-1 meds. We work out different strategies for weight loss. They take my blood pressure and my weight, I feel more comfortable going there rather than a mail order shipment.!

A great experience! Everyone was punctual courteous and kind. No one seem to be in any way judgmental and that was important to me. The doctor fully explained how my weight loss program would work with diet and exercise. They have a great support system there if there are any concerns or questions. One other thing, their hours are very flexible and convenient the location was easily accessible.

I chose Rivas to assist me in obtaining my weight loss goals. I had been stuck in a never ending plateau, where my weight would not reduce no matter what I did.
The medical staff and receptionists are all the best: professional, friendly, and very helpful. I am once again on track and getting closer to my personal goals.
In combination with my own efforts and the support of Rivas-I am again getting closer to better health and renewed weight loss.
Many Thanks! A+++

I had a wonderful experience at Rivas Weight loss in Hagertown, MD
The ladies were attentive and I was in and out quickly. I’ve already lost weight since starting two weeks ago and am optimistic about the future of my weight loss journey. The meds were given to me in office so the convenience is there and they can also send to a pharmacy of your choice.

I highly recommend Rivas Medical Weight Loss - not only for the effective weight loss I experienced years ago, but also for their Exomind equipment that I just tried! I'm 70 yrs. old and have been struggling with dealing with my son's rare form of cancer that the oncologists don't seem to know what to do with as well as helping to run a martial arts school that we both own and run together. And then there was just the general stress and tension that exists within our country right now added on top of everything else. At any rate, I was not only not getting good sleep, I was becoming a very angry driver as a result of all the stress and I didn't like that side of myself! Even after the first Exomind treatment (there are 4 total and then single follow-ups about 3 months apart), I felt a TREMENDOUS difference in my mood, calmness, my driving and my handling of various situations that can be stressful! It's been more than a week since I finished the 4th session and the effects are lasting! I am so relieved! In addition, my sleep seems to have improved and I lost 5 lbs after just the first session because I don't have the food cravings that I was having before I tried it! With all the stress and tension in the world today, this is a life changer! I highly recommend Exomind treatments!!
