Pediatrics - Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program

The Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program in Canton, MA, is dedicated to helping families tackle childhood obesity through a holistic, evidence-based approach. Our specialized weight management clinic emphasizes a combination of family involvement and behavioral strategies essential for lasting change. Each child's journey begins with a comprehensive assessment by our experienced physician and dietitian, followed by tailored action plans that include intensive treatment over six visits within a three to six-month period. We understand that each family’s readiness to engage in behavior management varies, so we also provide counseling to enhance roles, responsibilities, and communication skills. Our dedicated team, which includes psychologists and specialists in various fields, works closely with patients who face complex medical challenges, ensuring that care plans are customized to meet individual needs. We prioritize ongoing support and relapse prevention, along with a focus on motivation and personal growth. A referral from a Primary Care Physician is necessary to initiate the evaluation and treatment process, marking the start of a transformative journey towards healthier habits and improved well-being.
