Pediatrics - Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program

The Pediatrics - Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program in Boston, MA, is dedicated to combating childhood obesity through a holistic family-centered approach. Our specialty weight management clinic offers a unique combination of medical, nutritional, and psychological support tailored to each child's needs. We provide comprehensive services that begin with thorough assessments by both a physician and a dietitian, followed by a personalized action plan emphasizing lifestyle changes. Over the course of treatment, families receive intensive support through six clinic visits within three to six months, along with maintenance visits for up to a year. Our clinical team collaborates closely with primary care and other specialists to ensure effective care, particularly for children facing complex medical challenges. We also recognize the significant emotional impacts associated with obesity and provide access to psychological counseling for those in need. A referral from a Primary Care Physician is required to engage with our services, ensuring each child receives coordinated and compassionate care on their path to healthier living.
