Pediatrics - Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program

The Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program in Saugus, MA, is dedicated to addressing childhood obesity through a comprehensive and caring family-centered approach. Our evidence-based weight management clinic offers a combination of medical and behavioral support, ensuring that children and their families receive tailored counseling focused on roles, responsibilities, communication, and motivation. Each patient participates in an initial assessment with our team of physicians and dietitians, followed by a personalized lifestyle intervention plan designed to foster sustainable change. Over the course of six to twelve months, families engage in intensive and maintenance visits to track progress and prevent relapses. We also provide psychological support to address the emotional challenges often faced by children dealing with obesity, working closely with primary care and specialty clinics for a holistic approach. Families are encouraged to reach out for referrals from their Primary Care Physician to begin their journey toward healthier lives with our dedicated team.
