Non-Surgical Weight Loss
Obesity is a complex condition, and we treat excess weight seriously as a chronic disease through safe, sustainable weight management solutions. We help patients find a personalized program that works for them, including a combination of evidence-based treatments such as ongoing evaluations, weight loss medications, meal replacement plans, diet and exercise recommendations and physical therapy referrals. We also offer group and individual nutrition counseling to aid our patients in reaching – and sticking to – their weight loss goals.
Our medical management team provides patients with a support group where individuals who are struggling with their weight can come together to share their stories and get help in their efforts to be a healthier version of themselves. Through our comprehensive medical weight loss services, our mission is to help individuals maintain a healthy lifestyle and keep excess weight off for good, ultimately improving his or her quality of life long-term.
