Weight Control
Healthy Weight Control
We offer a multidisciplinary approach to helping patients gain control of their weight. While there are numerous weight control programs available to the public, we take an individualized approach by offering seven private consultations, two weeks apart over a three month period. These consultations rotate between our behavioral health specialist, exercise physiologist and nutrition specialist.
An optional exercise component may be added to your program that includes membership in the Hillcrest Fitness Center and supervision of your exercise sessions by qualified fitness professionals for an additional cost.
