Medical Weight Management

Helping You Realize Your Weight Goals

Weight management is a personal journey. At Winchester Hospital, we work with you to understand your unique health needs. Together, we can craft a treatment plan that helps you realize your weight goals.

Your medical weight management care plan may include the following, depending on your needs:

• Exercise capacity evaluation and prescription
• Medical evaluation and treatment of obesity-related conditions
• Medication therapy with medications approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration
• Individual nutrition counseling and meal plan development
• Ongoing motivation therapy
• Psychological counseling focused on behavior modification
