Pediatrics - Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program

Located in Peabody, MA, the Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program is dedicated to tackling childhood obesity through a comprehensive and family-focused approach. Our specialty weight management clinic employs an evidence-based strategy that emphasizes both behavioral and lifestyle changes, ensuring that each child receives personalized care tailored to their unique needs. Families embark on a journey that includes thorough assessments by our medical and nutritional experts, followed by a structured six-month intervention plan featuring intensive treatment sessions and ongoing maintenance support for up to a year. We recognize the psychological challenges that often accompany obesity, which is why our clinical team collaborates with specialists across various disciplines, including endocrinology and child psychology, to offer holistic care. By addressing not just the physical but also the mental well-being of our patients, we strive to foster motivation and readiness for change in every family we serve. A referral from a Primary Care Physician is necessary to access our services, and we welcome families ready to take proactive steps towards healthier lifestyles.
