What Is Medical Weight Loss?

Medical weight loss can help you work toward a healthier weight through nutrition education, lifestyle changes, and support from our health care professionals.

Our program includes:

• Customized nutritional counseling for non-surgical weight management.
• Counseling is provided by our onsite registered dietitian nutritionist, who will guide you in identifying personal barriers and assist you with discovering healthier options.
• A personalized plan based on your goals and health needs.
• Nutrition education and support.
• Ongoing guidance to help you build healthy habits that last.

Our program is designed to support long-term weight management—not quick fixes.

How Does the Program Work?

• A referral to medical nutrition therapy is required.
• You will work one-on-one with our Registered Dietitian Nutritionist to develop healthy eating habits and create realistic nutrition, activity, and lifestyle goals that support lasting results.
• You’ll have regular check-ins to track your progress, answer questions, and help you stay on track.

Who’s Eligible for Medical Weight Loss?

You may be a candidate if you:

• Are 18 or older.
• Have a BMI over 27 with a weight-related medical condition or a BMI over 30.
• Are ready to make healthy lifestyle changes, such as improving nutrition and increasing physical activity.
• Need to lose weight prior to an elective surgery, such as orthopedic joint replacement or hernia surgery.

*Insurance coverage varies and is based on your individual plan.
