Your Temple Terrace Weight Loss Doctor

Dr. Winston T Cope

Dr. Cope is a Pinellas County native, but after high school, he left for Ohio for his BA degree in Chemistry at Oberlin College. He then returned to Florida for his M.D. degree from the University of Florida. Dr. Cope took his Internship in Straight Medicine at Jackson Memorial Hospital at the University of Miami after which he joined the U.S. Navy Medical Corps for two years as a Medical Officer. Dr. Cope was stationed at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station for a year, where he served as Medical Officer and Executive Officer.

After returning from "The Ice," Dr. Cope worked in general medicine at the VA hospital in Durham, NC. He then began his Residency at Duke University.

Dr. Cope returned to Florida to join his family's medical practice. The surgical arm of the practice emphasized surgery, but in accordance with his medical background, Dr. Cope always paid extra attention to the "whole patient" including weight loss and hormone replacement therapy.

For years I suffered from an unhealthy relationship with food and difficulty managing my weight. I often felt stuck in a repetitive cycle I could never escape from. Working with a team of supportive, educated people who taught me how to properly nourish my body and enjoy my life finally allowed me to break free from this cycle. My journey has led me to a career in nursing and a passion for helping others overcome their health challenges.
