WEIGHT LOSS
PROGRAM
At BrightBody we get healthy to lose weight. With health as the focus, and weight loss as the welcome and expected side effect, our patients end up looking AND feeling good, from the inside out!
Comprehensive Medical Weight Loss Services
Our Weight Loss Program is designed to be comprehensive and flexible so patients can adapt our services to their unique needs and financial situations. At each Medical Weight Loss Appointment you will receive a medical weight loss evaluation and expert nutritional counseling. With those core services as the foundation you then discuss our optional add-on services with your doctor and decide what additional support you might need to reach your health and weight loss goals.
