Adult Department of Weight Management – Summary

Weight loss can improve various health issues and improve quality of life. Our Adult Department of Weight Management provides a personalized care plan tailored to each patient’s needs, goals, and lifestyle. Each care plan is a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to help patients achieve and maintain a healthy weight. We understand that weight loss is not “one size fits all”, but our dedicated team of experts will work with each patient to ensure the best possible results. From holistic/natural approaches, FDA-approved treatments, and finally working alongside the Bariatric Department. We ensure that each patient has a personalized care plan.

Multidisciplinary Team

Our department includes a registered dietitian who provides expert nutritional counseling, meal planning guidance, and ongoing support to help patients make sustainable dietary changes.

Medical Treatment Options

We utilize FDA-approved weight management medications, including GLP-1 receptor agonists such as Wegovy® (semaglutide) and Zepbound™ (tirzepatide), when appropriate. These medications are combined with nutrition, exercise, and behavioral strategies for optimal results.

Comprehensive Support

Patients receive regular follow-up visits, weight and body composition monitoring, and individualized coaching to ensure steady progress. Our goal is not just weight loss, but long-term health improvement — including better control of blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol.
