Meet Our Medical Director Jawan Ayer, M.D.

Dr. Ayer leads our clinic with more than 25 years of medical expertise and a deep passion for preventive health. After years treating complex conditions like cancer and blood disorders, she shifted her focus to weight loss and wellness medicine — inspired by her own personal weight loss and wellness transformation. She developed the desire to treat disease at its root. She is formerly trained and board-certified in:

  • Internal medicine
  • Oncology
  • Obesity medicine

She has also completed fellowships in both:

  • Hematology
  • Integrative medicine.

Dr. Ayer believes that true health change requires a holistic understanding of the individual — not just symptoms on a chart — and she champions personalized care plans that treat the whole person.

As an integrative medicine specialist, Dr. Ayer takes a personalized, whole-person approach to care. Rather than relying on one-size-fits-all solutions, treatment plans are tailored to fit:

  • Patient’s medical history
  • Lifestyle
  • Health goals
  • Focusing on long-term outcomes and disease prevention

About Florida Weight Loss & Wellness Clinic

A Thoughtful, Physician-Led Approach to Health, Weight & Wellness

Florida Weight Loss & Wellness is a physician-led medical clinic specializing in integrative medicine, obesity medicine, and aesthetic services. Our practice was created to help patients improve their health in a sustainable, medically sound, and personalized way.

We believe weight gain, fatigue, metabolic dysfunction, and changes in body composition are not failures of willpower — they are complex medical issues influenced by biology, hormones, lifestyle, and environment.

Our role is to help you understand what is happening in your body and guide you toward meaningful, lasting change.

Our Philosophy

Whole-Person Medicine, Not One-Size-Fits-All Care

We practice integrative medicine, meaning we evaluate the whole person — not just symptoms or the number on the scale.

Our care considers:

  • Metabolic health and insulin resistance

  • Hormonal balance

  • Nutrition and lifestyle factors

  • Stress, sleep, and inflammation

  • Body composition and overall vitality

We combine evidence-based medical treatments with personalized lifestyle and wellness strategies to address root causes and support long-term health.

This approach allows us to deliver care that is:

  • Medically appropriate

  • Individualized

  • Sustainable

  • Respectful and judgment-free

What Makes Us Different

More Than a Weight Loss Clinic

Florida Weight Loss & Wellness is not a commercial weight loss program. We are a medical practice focused on comprehensive health optimization.

What sets us apart:

  • Physician-led evaluations and treatment plans

  • Individualized medical decision-making

  • Ongoing monitoring and adjustments

  • Integration of weight loss, wellness, and aesthetic services

  • Emphasis on long-term outcomes, not quick fixes

We take the time to listen, evaluate, and educate — because meaningful results require more than prescriptions alone.

Wellness & Integrative Medicine

Supporting Health Beyond the Scale

Weight is only one part of overall wellness. Many patients seek care for fatigue, inflammation, metabolic concerns, or a desire to feel better in their daily lives.

Our wellness services may include:

  • Preventive and metabolic health assessments

  • IV nutrient therapy

  • Lifestyle optimization strategies

  • Support for energy, recovery, and resilience

Our focus is proactive care — helping patients optimize health rather than waiting for disease to develop.

  • Body contouring

  • Skin tightening and rejuvenation
