Compassionate and affordable healthcare from Dr. Greenspon and his kind staff. Read more about the team at Greenspon Medical & Aesthetics. Staff Meet Dr. James Greenspon MD Dr. Jim specializes in nutritional counseling and family medicine, inspired by his father and weight loss pioneer, Dr. Irwin Greenspon. He graduated from Indiana University (Go Hoosiers!) in 1981 and continued on to Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis where he earned his MD degree in 1985. Dr. Jim completed a residency in family practice at Good Samaritan Medical Center in Phoenix, Arizona. Dr. Jim eagerly returned home to join his father's historic practice, established in 1949, where he acquired his father's time-tested wisdom and techniques. After helping countless people lose and maintain their weight, he has become an expert in the weight loss field. To accommodate patients who were making a long drive to the main Lansing location, he added a satellite office in Northfield in 2016 that is easily accessible near interstate 94. Both Lansing and Northfield welcome walk-ins, though appointments are recommended for beauty procedures. He also continually adds new products, technology, and other services to give patients even more options to feel good about themselves in one location, including the most popular weight loss treatments, GLP-1 medications, Botox, fillers, laser treatments for skin, Emsculpt, peels, medical grade skincare products, and so much more! Dr. Jim always brings a sense of humor and warmth with him to work each day and is easy to talk to. And he loves when patients return the favor and crack their own jokes. He also takes a thoughtful and caring approach to practicing medicine that is increasingly harder to find in most places healthcare is sought. He loves learning languages and is multilingual! Dr. Greenspon speaks German, Spanish, and French, and knows a bit in many other languages thanks to his patients who teach him new words. Some of his favorite things in life are the simple things. When he isn't working, he can be found taking long walks, playing pickle ball, doing his best to keep up with the latest music (perhaps more so than his kids), and looking forward to his next Caesar salad, with balsamic vinaigrette substituted for Caesar dressing of course! He also never skips his morning fitness routine of floor exercises and resistance bands. What can we say, he practices what he preaches! Meet Our Staff Our experienced staff ensures a thorough visit leaving each patient well-informed about the importance of proper nutrition and exercise.

The best and oldest weight loss clinic in Chicago! Nutrition, weight loss programs, GLP-1s, and more. At Greenspon Medical & Aesthetics, we give you options. Nutrition and Weight Loss Lose weight and feel good We are the original creators of our most popular weight loss protocol and with over 75 years of watching people successfully lose weight with our method, we know it works and is safe. This protocol features a selection of medications and supplements to build a foundation for your lifestyle efforts to work more effectively. We give nutritional counseling and advice on what to eat, how to eat, and when to eat for weight loss. We can advise on exercise that would be a good fit for you. Through education, regular check-ins with how you're doing, and any medications you are taking and lifestyle changes you have made, we can help you lose weight. There are other options for weight loss besides our main program for people who want to try newer medications and methods, such as GLP-1 agonists like semaglutide and tirzepatide. Greenspon Medical & Aesthetics is about giving you options. If you are a good candidate for them, we have different kinds and combinations of weight loss medications. If you want a simple diet and exercise route, we can help you there too. If you do all three, well power to you! And if you've lost weight and still have some stubborn fat or loose skin that bothers you, we have procedures and products in our aesthetics department that address some changes in appearance after weight loss. We would also never want you to feel weight loss isn't worthwhile because of fears of loose skin. Weight loss is worth it, and if your weight is causing health issues for you, losing weight and restoring your health is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself. And for folks who have common comorbidities associated with being overweight, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, insulin resistance, or diabetes, we see people like you walk into our office every day. We can help you lose weight alongside your other medical conditions and we can also help you treat the same metabolic conditions all under one roof! We have always liked to be convenient for our patients and so traditional primary care, weight loss, nutrition, and aesthetics (cosmetic and beauty procedures), and treatments for a wide variety of medical concerns are all accessible in one place. This saves you time and our staff will get to better know you. Whether you are 20 pounds or 200 pounds overweight, we have seen it all and are here for you. Feel free to walk in to our Lansing or Northfield office on a day and time that we are open to start your weight loss journey.
