Women Don't Gain 50 Pounds By Accident. For Many, It Started When They Came To America…
Many Spanish-speaking women who come to Dr. Beltre describe a similar experience.
They arrived in America healthy.
They ate the food they grew up with.
Then something happened…
The American food system is built differently.
Then the weight crept on…
Over time, weight became harder to manage.
And over the years, many found themselves carrying significantly more weight than when they first arrived.
And without the right support, it tends to keep going.
As their weight climbs, so does their risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
And if weight and related health concerns go unaddressed, they can become harder to manage over time
Unmanaged Type 2 diabetes can turn pills into daily insulin injections
Long-term unmanaged Type 2 diabetes can lead to complications
Without intervention, weight often continues to climb*
Reduced mobility, increased fatigue, difficulty keeping up with daily activities*
Increased cardiovascular risk over time
And you can feel a growing disconnection with your world
It's not simply a question of willpower.
The food environment in America is very different.
Highly processed, calorie-dense foods are widely available and can make weight management more difficult.
But Spanish-speaking women are fighting back.
Since 1998, Dr. Beltre has performed 4,000+ bariatric procedures*, with a practice focused on weight loss and metabolic health.
How do they do it?
Patients receive medically supervised support throughout their weight-loss journey*
Bariatric treatment may support improvements in metabolic health and glucose control for some patients*
A long-term weight-management approach that may reduce reliance on ongoing weekly injections*
How do they do it?
Through Dr. Beltre’s Return Method™ — a personalized plan designed to support weight loss, metabolic health and long-term weight management.*
Right now, you can claim your FREE Weight Loss Treatment Plan consultation and discover which options may be appropriate for losing weight and supporting long-term weight management.*

HOW IT WORKS
Dr. Beltre's: The Return Method
“Regreso” — A Medical Approach To Weight Loss For Women Whose Health Changed After Moving To America
Dr. Beltre’s Return Method™ is built around a simple idea: for many women whose weight changed after moving to America, the issue isn’t personal failure. Changes in food, routine, stress and environment can all play a role.
Researchers point to three hormone systems that can shift when diet and environment change*:
1
Ghrelin Disruption (The Hunger Hormone)
Ghrelin helps regulate hunger. Changes in diet and eating patterns may affect hunger and fullness signals,* which can make weight management more difficult for some people after major lifestyle changes.
2
Leptin Resistance (The Fat Storage Hormone)
Leptin plays a role in appetite and energy balance. In obesity, leptin signaling may become less effective,* which can make maintaining a healthy weight more difficult even when someone is actively trying to eat less.
3
GLP-1 Suppression (The Satisfaction Hormone)
GLP-1 plays a role in appetite, digestion and blood sugar regulation.* It is one of several metabolic signals involved in how the body responds to food and manages weight.
And This Is Where The Return Method™ Comes In
Dr. Beltre’s Return Method™ takes these factors into account to build a personalized treatment plan based on each patient’s health history, goals and medical evaluation.*
The goal is to support weight loss, metabolic health and long-term weight management.*

Patricia Florence
From day one, Dr. Beltre explained everything in clear, simple terms that made the entire process easy to understand. He has a highly professional and compassionate team, including coordinator Alejandro ,psychologist Ingrid Cruz, nutritionist Debbie Juda, and all the wonderful nurses — especially Catalina and Yoyo.
Yani Delgado
The staff was caring. Dr. Beltre was personable and skilled. Dr. Eric (anesthesiologist) was amazing. I've had several surgeries and always have a sore throat after and sleep for days. It didn't happen this time thanks to Dr. Eric. Katherine (nurse?) was very helpful and friendly. My surgery was not covered by insurance and I thought the price was reasonable for cash pay.
Kirsten Cipri
The care I received was exceptional, and I truly felt supported every step of the way. I’m gradually adjusting to eating much smaller portions than I used to, but I feel great overall. It’s been just one month since I started this journey, and I’ve already lost around 22 pounds. Dr. Beltre is absolutely outstanding at what he does — I couldn’t be happier with my results and the entire experience.
Zu P
Dr. Beltre is an exceptional provider. I visited him in October 2024, weighing 300 pounds, and I am currently down to 187 pounds, just six months after surgery. He has also taught me about proper eating habits and when to avoid food. Whenever I face any challenges, I know I can reach out to him or his staff, who have been wonderful since the moment I walked into their facility.
Anthony Soler
Thank you so much Beltre Bariatrics and Dr. Beltre for your kindness, support, and superb medícal care. I was defeated and frustrated with my health and weight. You explained everything so well and laid out all of my options so that I could make an informed decision. I’m currently 18 days post surgery and feel amazing!
Candace Fitzgerald

WARNING!
Why Putting Off Your Weight Loss Can Have A Cost
Untreated obesity and Type 2 diabetes can become harder to manage over time.
Here’s what that can look like:
Type 2 Diabetes Can Lead To Complications
Long-term unmanaged diabetes may become more difficult to control.
Weight Can Continue To Increase Without Effective Intervention*
As weight increases, associated health concerns may become more difficult to manage.
GLP-1 Treatment Can Mean Ongoing Medication Costs
GLP-1 medications are generally taken on an ongoing schedule, and costs vary by medication and insurance coverage.*
After stopping semaglutide, patients regained about two-thirds of the weight they had lost within a year. (Wilding et al., Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, 2022)
There’s More At Stake Than The Number On The Scale
Energy and mobility can matter when it comes to being present for family, children and everyday life.*
Dr. Beltre Accepts A Limited Number Of New Consultations Each Month*
Limited new patient capacity each month.
The longer obesity and related metabolic health problems go unaddressed, the more difficult they can become to manage.*
You don’t have to commit to treatment today.
But you can get clear on your options.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the FREE Weight Loss Treatment Plan consultation work?
Book a 30-minute call, virtual or in-person, in Spanish or English.
Dr. Beltre’s team will learn about your health history, goals and what you’ve tried before, then walk you through the options that may be worth exploring — including expected costs and next steps.
No pressure. Just clarity on your options.
What exactly is the Return Method™ and how does it support long-term weight management*?
The Return Method™ is Dr. Beltre’s personalized approach to weight loss and metabolic health.
It looks at the bigger picture — your health history, what changed after moving to America, what you’ve already tried, and whether medical weight loss, bariatric surgery, or a combination approach may be appropriate.
The goal is long-term weight management, not a one-size-fits-all solution.*
I’ve tried everything. How is this different?
Diets often rely heavily on restriction and willpower. And with semaglutide, weight regain after stopping treatment is a real consideration — patients regained about two-thirds of their lost weight within a year of stopping treatment.* (Wilding et al., 2022)
The Return Method™ takes a different approach. It looks at the metabolic factors involved in weight management, along with your health history, what you’ve already tried, and whether medical weight loss, bariatric surgery, or a combination approach may be appropriate.*
How much does treatment cost?
Costs depend on the treatment you choose.
Financing may be available from around $200/month, subject to credit approval. Payment amount and terms vary by procedure and financing plan.
Your FREE consultation includes a clear breakdown of the available options and costs
How quickly can I get started?
Some patients begin with medical weight-loss support, while others move forward with surgery after evaluation.
Timing depends on your health, treatment plan and the required medical steps.
Some patients are able to schedule treatment within 2–4 weeks.*
What happens after I book my FREE consultation?
