Pediatrics - Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program

Located in Chestnut Hill, MA, the Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program specializes in pediatric weight management through a family-oriented and evidence-based approach. Our clinic addresses childhood obesity by providing thorough assessments from physicians and dietitians, individualized lifestyle interventions, and continuous support tailored to each child's needs. Families can expect a comprehensive action plan after an initial consultation, which includes detailed evaluations of medical, nutritional, and physical activity levels, alongside psychological assessments. With the core focus on motivation and readiness for change, our multidisciplinary team collaborates with various specialists to ensure holistic care for children facing more complex health challenges. Recognizing the profound psychological impact of obesity, we also provide targeted support for patients who experience issues related to stigmatization and emotional well-being. A referral from a Primary Care Physician is necessary for evaluation and treatment in our program, ensuring that each child receives the appropriate care and support they need on their journey to a healthier lifestyle.
