About Dr. Bragg
Meet Dr. Bragg. He is the physician who founded Svelte Medical Weight Management. He is committed to helping you achieve your weight loss goals.
In practice for over 20 years, Dr. Richard Bragg strives to provide each one of his patients with the highest standard of care.
Dr. Bragg’s interest in aesthetic medicine began in medical school when his wife became troubled over tiny spider veins on her legs.
As he researched ways to treat her condition, his passion for making people feel better about their appearance grew.
Today, thanks to numerous referrals and “word-of-mouth” advertising, Dr. Bragg and his courteous staff have become one of Central Florida’s preferred Orlando weight loss doctors, offering the most advanced and effective treatments available.
