Could I waste my money on a Korean-medicine diet? I worry that some people clearly see no results.
Treatment effects and costs vary with individual condition and goals, so before starting, ask specifically about expectations, alternatives, and the scope of follow-up care. Record what you are told and calmly compare it with other options.
No treatment can guarantee a weight-loss result. Ask about target weight and period, the expected range of change, what costs for visits, medicines, and follow-up include, adverse effects, and stopping criteria.
Compare a plan based on eating and exercise alone and other treatment options, and consider whether the plan is sustainable for you. Check whether weight and symptoms can be reviewed and the plan adjusted after starting. Choose an institution that provides enough explanation and allows informed consent rather than rushing the decision.
If a contract or payment is requested first, confirm refund rules and extra costs. If the explanation is insufficient, you can compare a consultation at another institution.
