What doctors help with weight loss?

I've been struggling with my weight for a few years now, and regular diet and exercise aren't giving me the results I want. I'm looking for professional help. What kind of doctors help with weight loss, apart from a dietitian?

Don't fall for crash diets or weight loss powders sold online, they can ruin your kidneys. If you want to lose weight safely, consult a qualified endocrinologist or a certified medical bariatric specialist first.

For healthy weight management, consulting an endocrinologist is ideal to rule out hormonal causes like thyroid or insulin resistance. A clinical dietitian can then create a customized, balanced meal plan for you.

I always recommend starting with a general physician to get your basic blood panel done. If there are hormonal issues, they will refer you to an endocrinologist; otherwise, a professional dietitian is perfect.

Look, if you are struggling with weight, go see a bariatric specialist or an endocrinologist. Don't waste money on fat-burner tea or local gym trainers who sell illegal supplements.
