US
The Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program in Medford, MA, is dedicated to addressing pediatric obesity through a compassionate, family-centered approach that recognizes the importance of both medical and behavioral strategies. Our specialized weight management clinic offers a comprehensive range of services tailored to each child's needs, including annual assessments by a physician and dietitian, personalized action plans, and ongoing support with maintenance visits. We understand that each family’s readiness to engage in behavior management varies, which is why we also provide counseling focused on roles, communication, and motivation. Our team works closely with families, developing care plans that involve collaboration with other specialists for children facing complex medical issues. As part of our mission, we are committed to helping children not just physically, but also emotionally, as we recognize that challenges such as stigmatization and diminished quality of life can arise from obesity. A referral from a Primary Care Physician is necessary to begin the journey toward better health with us, as we believe in empowering families to make lasting lifestyle changes for a healthier future.
