HEALTH PLUS Medical Weight Loss Program
Our comprehensive medical weight loss program begins with a thorough assessment of your health, lifestyle, and medical history. Then we will work with you to set realistic goals, and we will give you the tools and support you need to reach them. The HEALTH PLUS weight loss program utilizes a combination of one-on-on coaching, healthy diet, menu planning, individualized exercise plans, and prescription weight loss medication.
What makes HEALTH PLUS different from other weight loss programs is our focus on health and on the individual needs of our patients.
Our weight loss program is grounded in a scientific, holistic approach to health and wellness. We do not believe in the “quick fix” or “one-size-fits-all” approach to weight loss. You will not find replacement meals, liquid diets, ineffective supplements or starvation menus at HEALTH PLUS. Instead, you will find a welcoming atmosphere, a weight loss program that is tailored to your individual needs, and a sound, scientific program that prioritizes your health and well-being.

1Medical Supervision
During each of your visits to HEALTH PLUS you will meet individually with a nurse practitioner or dietician who has extensive training and experience with medical weight loss. These meetings will focus on your progress and your needs.
2Medication
When appropriate, we prescribe safe and effective weight loss medication. We believe that medication, when used together with lifestyle modifications, can play a role in weight loss and weight maintenance. Patients are carefully and regularly monitored while on medication. Weight loss medication can only be prescribed to patients with a BMI of 27 or above. Click here for more information about medication.
3Diet
At HEALTH PLUS we prescribe a healthy, low-fat, plant based, whole food diet. We don’t tell you what to eat, but we do help you make better food choices. Our goal is to guide you towards a diet that is tasty, nutritionally balanced and sustainable.
4Maintenance
You’ve lost weight. Now What? At HEALTH PLUS we understand that maintaining the weight loss you worked so hard for is even more important. Our affordable maintenance program provides you with continued support even after you have reached your goal weight. Stay as long as you like. Your long- term success is our goal too.
The combination of individualized care, medication and lifestyle modification used by HEALTH PLUS has proven to be extremely effective.
At HEALTH PLUS you will always be treated with respect.
In the past you may have felt blamed or humiliated when you sought help for weight loss, but this will never happen at HEALTH PLUS. We understand that having a weight problem is not your fault, and that being overweight does not result from a lack of will power or from laziness.
We'll help keep you accountable and focused on your goals.
Many of our patients feel that the key to their success is the accountability provided by regular visits and frequent contact with their Health Plus coach. Health Plus aims to help keep you accountability through positive reinforcement and helpful advice.
