The Obesity Pharmacotherapy Program in South Boston, MA, is dedicated to helping individuals achieve sustainable weight loss through a comprehensive, one-year approach that integrates lifestyle modifications with medication. Our program addresses the numerous health conditions associated with obesity, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, fatty liver disease, and sleep apnea, empowering patients to improve their health and potentially reduce their reliance on medication. We begin with thorough initial assessments, including a metabolic rate evaluation and individual consultations with our dietitian, who crafts a tailored dietary plan for each participant. Throughout the program, we provide continuous support, featuring regular check-ins with our care team, which includes specialists in obesity medicine, dietetics, and psychology. We accept MassHealth and Medicare, and encourage new patients to attend an informative orientation, where they will undergo a full evaluation to build a personalized plan aimed at achieving their health goals.
