About Our Pediatric Weight Management Program

Our dedicated team, led by board-certified obesity medicine pediatricians with expertise in childhood weight management, believe every child has the potential to achieve a healthy weight and lifelong wellness. The practice supports all patients in reaching this goal by using a personalized and compassionate family-based approach. We believe that involving the family in lifestyle changes is essential to the behavior change process for a child.

In addition to a meeting with a pediatric obesity specialist, the family and child will have a multidisciplinary team supporting the family in achieving realistic lifestyle changes to build new life-long habits.

The child’s team will consist of a medical provider — a pediatrician or physician assistant, a dietitian and a behavior specialist — with expertise in childhood weight management. Children and teens meet with a member of their team monthly working on healthy lifestyle changes.

All patients also have access to our many free community-based nutrition and fitness programs to gain the knowledge and skills to achieve healthy habits, more energy and positive self-esteem.
