About MetFit-Rx


Welcome to MetFit-Rx, a premier weight management practice in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Our experienced weight loss specialists, John Fudickar, PA, and Michael Duplechain, MD, offer evidence-based, comprehensive medically supervised weight loss to patients 18 and older in a compassionate environment. 

Our skilled team takes a medical approach to healthy weight loss to achieve sustainable and long-lasting results. We offer local accessibility and community-based care that integrates lifestyle support with clinical treatments. We tailor flexible options to patients’ specific needs, taking a safety-first clinical approach.

Our experts provide initial medical consultations, including metabolic evaluations and eligibility screening for weight loss medications. MetFit-Rx offers semaglutide and tirzepatide injections, the active ingredients found in well-known brands like Ozempic® and Mounjaro®, at competitive self-pay rates. 

Our pharmacy services include medication supply and shipping. MetFit-Rx provides access to compounded, medical-grade injections prepared and dispensed by a trusted Louisiana pharmacy. We utilize GLP-1 microdosing to minimize potential side effects like nausea and constipation.

We also offer health coaching, exercise plans, and custom nutrition plans. They may include high-protein, ketogenic, low-glycemic index (GI), or Mediterranean diets. Our lab monitoring services help patients track their health over time.

MetFit-Rx’s clinical monitoring utilizes calibrated medical equipment to assess vital signs, body weight, and overall physiologic progress during monthly visits. Our provider-guided dosing plans adjust medication levels to patients’ unique responses. Convenient monthly follow-up care with medical professionals offers utmost accountability and long-term tracking.

The experts at MetFit-Rx welcome new and existing patients and look forward to helping them achieve weight loss, body composition, and overall health goals.
