Covenant Weight Management Center
Medically Supervised Weight Loss Programs

Sustained weight loss depends on a well-motivated and informed patient who is able to comply with major diet and lifestyle changes. This is the guiding factor in the development of each patient’s medically supervised weight management program.

When you enter the program, our nurse practitioner, dietician and exercise physiologist conduct a full medical evaluation, nutritional analysis and Activity Level Assessment. This core team will determine if additional medical consultations, such as behavioral or medical, are needed.

Your weight management program is then customized and individualized based on your health status, body mass and other factors, as well as individual patient preferences. You receive guidance from every member of the multi-disciplinary team who will assist you step-by-step with the necessary changes for a healthier life.

Our medically supervised weight loss program may include:

• Low- or very-low calorie diet with meal supplements under medical supervision
• Psychological support groups
• Lifestyle behavioral modification classes
• Weekly class meeting
• Grocery shopping with a nutritionist
• Stress reduction
