About this service

Weight care is health care

Body weight can be influenced by nutrition, activity, sleep, medications, medical conditions, environment, and genetics. A medical approach evaluates the broader picture before recommending a plan.

Depending on clinical findings, a plan may include nutrition and activity goals, laboratory evaluation, behavior changes, medication discussion, and regular monitoring. Eligibility for any prescription treatment must be determined by a licensed provider.
