Obesity Pharmacotherapy Program

The Obesity Pharmacotherapy Program in Waltham, MA, offers a dedicated one-year approach to effectively manage obesity through a combination of lifestyle changes and targeted medication. Our program is designed to address not only weight loss but also the complications associated with obesity, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, fatty liver disease, and sleep apnea. Our initial assessment includes a metabolic rate evaluation, personalized dietary guidance from our dietitians, education on mindful eating, and regular weight checks. From there, our expert care team develops a customized plan that may involve ongoing dietary meetings, closely monitored weight loss medications, and various treatment options, including behavioral support or surgical interventions. Accepted by MassHealth and Medicare, our program requires new patients to attend an introductory orientation, where they will receive a thorough evaluation and personalized guidance from our specialized obesity medicine physician, dietitian, and psychologist, ensuring a holistic approach to your health journey.
