About Us
Medical Weight Management is Dr. Dudney's private medical office specializing in weight and mood control in a comfortable and confidential cottage setting in South Tampa's Hyde Park / SoHo area near the intersection of S. MacDill Ave and W. Kennedy Blvd. As an M.D. and board-certified Psychiatrist, Dr. Dudney has expert knowledge about the emotions and stress that often contribute to weight gain.
He has extensive experience in medical treatment of the anxiety, irritable mood and feelings of panic that may accompany weight gain. He is skilled in the changing, adjusting, or switching of antidepressants that may be a necessary part of long term success.
Other medical issues important to his treatment plan are concerns about risk of diabetes, blood pressure, stroke, cholesterol, and joint pain. Metabolic, hormone, and thyroid problems may need to be addressed before weight loss progress can really move forward. While consultation with plastic surgeons, cardiologists, endocrinologists and other medical specialists may be considered, many new patients can be helped early in the course of their weight struggle, before complications become disabling.
At Medical Weight Management, you will find:
• a private setting with easy parking
• respect for your time
• no embarrassing long waits in a crowded common room
• a treatment plan based on your needs, not a franchised protocol
• a confidential doctor-patient relationship
