Pediatrics - Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program

The Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program in Marshfield, MA, is dedicated to empowering families through a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to pediatric obesity management. Our specialty weight management clinic offers a supportive environment where children and their families can engage in a tailored lifestyle change intervention. Each patient begins with an in-depth assessment by our dedicated team, including a physician and dietitian, who develop an individual action plan focused on nutrition, physical activity, and psychological readiness. With an emphasis on motivation and effective communication, we guide families through intensive treatment sessions and ongoing maintenance visits, ensuring the necessary support for lasting change. Our clinical team also collaborates with various specialists to address complex medical issues, reinforcing our commitment to holistic care. We recognize the psychological challenges that many young patients face, and as such, we provide resources for emotional support and counseling, helping to tackle the social stigmas associated with weight. A referral from a primary care physician is required to access our services, and we are here to assist families in creating a healthier future together.
