Weight loss injection in Berlin-Mitte: choose your care

Would you like medical support with weight loss and want to know whether a weight loss injection may be an option for you? At Praxis Jona, you can choose between three care options from the start. The main difference: Dr. med. Jonida Gjolli includes nutrition counselling as an integral part of care. Dr. Daria Shabas provides in-person medical care without nutrition counselling.

1. With nutrition counselling: Dr. med. Jonida Gjolli

Initial in-person appointment: 60 minutes · approx. 289 €

This option is for people who want not only advice about a weight loss injection, but also targeted support to change their diet from the outset. We discuss your medical history, previous attempts to lose weight and the three-day food diary you bring with you. Based on this, we develop individual recommendations that suit your health and daily life.

The appointment also includes a medical assessment of your suitability for medication-based weight loss, an abdominal ultrasound, weighing and an analysis of your body composition. We discuss how to use the medication, possible side effects and the next steps in your care.

Please prepare the food diary: During the two weeks before your appointment, record what you eat on two weekdays and one weekend day. Record meals, snacks and drinks as completely as possible. Bring any recent laboratory results you have.

Follow-up appointments with nutrition counselling: 30 minutes · approx. 119 €

We discuss how you were able to follow the nutrition recommendations, what was difficult and which adjustments may be useful. We monitor your weight and body composition. If you use a weight loss injection, we also include tolerability and the course of treatment in the medical assessment.

After a total of three nutrition counselling appointments, we review together whether further care can be provided digitally and whether this is medically appropriate for you. A change to digital care is not automatic.

Possible contribution from your health insurer

Of the planned initial appointment fee, €140 is allocated to nutrition counselling; €70 of the follow-up appointment fee is allocated to nutrition counselling. Your health insurer may contribute to some of these costs. The insurer decides whether it recognises our counselling and, if so, how much it will contribute.

Ask your health insurer before your first appointment. You will usually need a medical certificate confirming that the counselling is medically necessary. We can provide a cost estimate and proof of our nutrition medicine qualifications. Submit these documents in advance and, if possible, ask for written confirmation of the terms.

Reimbursement is not guaranteed. A contribution towards nutrition counselling does not automatically cover ultrasound, body composition analysis, other medical services, laboratory tests or medication.

2. Without nutrition counselling: Dr. Daria Shabas

From January 2027 · Initial in-person appointment: 45 minutes · approx. 149 €

Would you like in-person medical care for a weight loss injection, but do not want nutrition counselling? This option is for you.

Dr. Shabas discusses your health, previous attempts to lose weight and possible contraindications. The initial appointment includes a medical consultation and suitability assessment, an abdominal ultrasound, weighing and body composition analysis. Together, you discuss whether medication-based treatment is suitable and what further care could look like.

Follow-up appointments: 20 minutes · approx. 69 €

At the follow-up appointment, you discuss your weight progress, tolerability, possible side effects and further treatment. Nutrition counselling and a repeat body composition analysis are not included. You can arrange a body composition analysis separately if needed; it is charged according to the service provided.

3. Digital: medical support from home

Initial digital appointment: 20 minutes · approx. 69 €

Before your first video appointment, you complete a medical questionnaire. During the consultation, we assess your health, possible contraindications and whether treatment with a weight loss injection may be an option for you. A prescription is issued only after a medical assessment and when there is an appropriate indication.

Further care using an online follow-up form: 20.11 € per month

If you are already receiving care from us, you can complete an online follow-up form for continued care. Among other things, you provide information about your weight progress, tolerability and possible side effects. We review your information medically and assess whether treatment can continue.

If continuing treatment is medically appropriate, we send the prescription to your home by post. Submitting the form does not automatically result in a prescription. If questions or symptoms require a more detailed assessment, we arrange a consultation or an in-person appointment with you instead.

Each additional medical video consultation arranged lasts 20 minutes and costs approx. 69 €. Video consultations are not automatically required every month.

Digital care does not include an abdominal ultrasound, weighing or body composition analysis at the practice. If an in-person examination is necessary, we recommend an in-person appointment.

Frequently asked questions about weight loss injections

Why does an appointment with Dr. Gjolli cost more?

With Dr. Gjolli, nutrition counselling, including review of your food diary, is an integral part of the initial appointment and the follow-up appointments planned initially. The initial appointment lasts 60 minutes. Dr. Shabas provides 45 minutes of in-person medical care without nutrition counselling.

Will I definitely get a prescription after the initial appointment?

No. We first assess whether the treatment is medically suitable. A prescription is issued only when there is an appropriate indication.

Can my health insurer cover the costs?

A partial contribution towards nutrition counselling may be possible under certain conditions. Check this with your health insurer before your first appointment. A contribution towards nutrition counselling does not mean that the weight loss injection or other services will also be covered.

How are the services billed?

Medical services are billed under the German Medical Fee Schedule (GOÄ), according to the services actually provided. The prices listed are estimates. We discuss any additional examinations with you in advance.
