The physician was very professional and offered great guidance about to get to my target goal. I really enjoy going to the clinic. I did not have to wait. I hope to get the results I am looking for. As I see my results I will definitely recommend to anyone I know. Today is my first day and so far no headache or dry mouth. Thank you so much

The best team that’s ever worked for me. I lost 70lbs with them two years ago then regained half after I left during COVID. I’m back down 42lbs today after 4 full months back on the program. I am type 1 diabetic and I’m off blood pressure and cholesterol meds. Best yet, my triglycerides have never been lower.

Was nervous about my appointment during the time of covid-19 but I had an excellent experience! I was able to fill out all my paperwork online beforehand. When I arrived in my car I called the office which they informed me that a doctor would call me and conduct the appointment over the phone. Dr.Gordon was extremely professional, thorough and answered all of my questions. He made me feel entirely comfortable with the process. After my consultation with him, I went inside to have my blood pressure and weight taken and to pick up my medicine as well as booked my next appointment. The front desk staff were so friendly and welcoming. I will refer everyone I know!

I loved everything about this office from the time I arrived to my departure. The front desk staff apologized for a wait. But the provider I saw was so knowledgeable and just gave me more confidence that I could do this.

So sad I wasn’t aware of Rivas weight loss before! I gained soo much weight being stuck indoors. Rivas was so professional and informative! I didn’t feel rushed when I started rambling about my concerns. The Doc was extremely patient and answered all my questions. What I loved most was the Docs honesty. Definitely wasn’t money hungry trying to shove all these services down my throat or in my wallet. He recommended other things that I could do that would make this journey more cost efficient for me, and I appreciated that. Definitely made me feel safe and gained my trust. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to lose weight!

Awesome doctors and staff. Super accommodating. They listen to your struggles and offer suggestions to give you the best results. The emails sent to you (and text messages) about appointments plus a 2 hour reminder prior to your appointment is helpful for those that are constantly on the go. I would give 10 stars if it was an option. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Due to Covid-19, all precautions were taken to ensure a safe visit and staff wore their face mask at all times. I felt well cared for, with a professional staff and I highly recommend Rivas for anyone seeking weight loss options.

Always a great experience in the office- staff is always super helpful and kind- even when I’m trying to squeeze in last minute! Very accommodating!I’ve lost over 30 lbs with Dr. Rivas’ program and it really works! I’m much like the average person who has struggled with their weight for their whole life, on and off, and nothing works as much as this program. I feel good, I look great, and I keep seeing results!Dr. Rivas has always been wonderful, as I have seen him the most. However, the last couple of visits, I have seen Eli. He’s awesome! Each time he has been So friendly and always gives great meal prep advice with my busy, on the go lifestyle!With Thanksgiving, I reluctant to go to my last visit to weigh in! I was actually dreading it! However I left feeling motivated and inspired to take on the next couple of weeks! Thank you Eli! Looking forward to my next visit!

Talk about going above and beyond - my appointment was unreal (surreal?). And I never got out of my car - my call was answered immediately when I arrived, the Dr. Gordon called me right back and then my medicine was brought out to my car! At the same time I didnt feel rushed or like the staff was in a hurry to move me along. Dr. Gordon answered my questions and took his time also. Great job!

I highly recommend scheduling an appointment to learn more about what Rivas Medical Weight Loss has to offer. I heard about Rivas through a friend. The appointments are easy to schedule, staff is very friendly, appointments are informative. The programs are affordable and you will see results. The doctors at Rivas truly care about helping you to meet your weight loss goal.

Can’t say enough about this medical weight loss clinic. I’ve been a patient here for 2yrs now and love it! They have not only helped me reach my goal but maintain. Only place I have found that will stay with you. All other places once you reach a goal they won’t treat you anymore. I wanted long term real weight control and Dr. Rivas provides that.

Rivas Medical Weight Loss has changed my life. I first entered their program 7 weeks ago, a 42 year old overweight diabetic with high blood pressure, no energy, and no self esteem. In 7 weeks I am down 32.5 lbs thanks to RMWLP!!! The staff is amazing, the program easy to follow, the results are beyond my wildest dreams. I have my life back!!!

I like the doctors in the office but I would still like to see Dr. Rivas. He is never available in the Ellicott City office in the evenings. Would there be a possibility of him returning to the office in the evenings?

I was referred to Dr. Rivas’s Weight loss office by one of my primary care physicians at the beginning of this year, January 2018. I started the program in the Towson office and eventually transferred to the Ellicott City office, as it is located closer to my home. While at Towson, I had the pleasure of seeing two physicians, who also worked out of the Ellicott City office so it didn’t feel much had changed for me and as the office staff was equally as pleasant.Utilizing the prescribed program and keeping up with my gym routine, I have been able to lose 30 pounds. I am ecstatic about my progress, however I noticed that I had started to plateau and wanted to have a conversation with the physician about any additional options that could be recommended.About two months ago I had a visit with a third physician, that was new to me in the Ellicott City office. He didn’t introduce himself so I didn’t know his name. Although the office visits are booked for 10-15 minutes long, I felt rather rushed and dismissed by this physician. However, I figured I most likely wouldn’t interact with him again and perhaps he was having a bad day, so I gave him the benefit of the doubt.Last week I had a follow up appointment when this same physician. He was equally as short, dismissive, off-putting and condescending. So much so that during our conversation, I said to him: that “it doesn’t seem like this conversation is going very far” and asked if he needed anything else so that I could leave. Afterwards, I asked the staff at the front desk for a physician evaluation as I did not want to see this physician moving forward and they recommended to write a review. This is when I learned that the physician was Dr. Rivas.After my visit I received a certified letter from Dr. Rivas dismissing me from his program. Perhaps he didn’t respond well to my being assertive or he is not accustomed to being challenged with questions from patients, however, I believe this situation could have been handled differently. Contrary to what he may think, I am not in anyway retaliating with this review, if anything I am giving myself a voice yet again as he attempts to dismiss me.What Dr. Rivas does not know is that my career is based in Human Resources, specifically in healthcare, which speaks to my level of concern regarding the “leader” of what has become a very successful program, addressing patients in this manner.I am grateful for the new habits I have implemented and the progress I have made in my weight loss journey, however, it is not worth being disrespected.

I have had 2 visits with Rivas in Ellicott City. Both have gone very well. They answer questions, are real about life and the things we choose. I felt like I could tell them anything and they would understand, not judgmental in anyway. I will be continuing to go back. And it’s way cheaper than all the other “diets/lifestyle” changes I have done. And I have done tons of them. Live your best life. 🙌🏼
