Programs for Youth and Teens
Our pediatric and teen weight management programs
are designed for children and their parents to gain knowledge and
inspiration to make healthy choices based on personal health,
emotional needs, and sustainable lifestyle habits. The four-month
pediatric and teen programs include a combination of individual
sessions and group classes. An initial medical assessment, physical
examination and laboratory analysis must be completed prior to
beginning the program and can be conducted by our specialized
bariatric physicians or completed by your pediatrician. An
individualized treatment plan for weight and health goals, a
realistic, healthy nutritional and exercise program, and educational
materials will be provided. One-on-one sessions with a Registered
Dietitian and Counselor promote open communication and
self-reflection while group sessions offer fun, interactive
learning, supportive dialogue, and building of self-confidence in
nutritional choices, physical activity, and positive thinking.
Activity, Behaviors, and Cuisine… Children need
support and good role models – learn how to positively support
increased physical activity, healthy behaviors, and provide
nutritious cuisine to your children. Address common health concerns,
develop strategies to promote a healthy lifestyle, and discover
resources to help you and your children with the ABC’s of life.
