A structured approach geared to support substantial weight loss
Weight loss is not the answer to every health problem. However, if your doctor has recommended weight loss, we are here to assist you with safely losing weight through an educational, nutritional and physical activity approach.
Studies show that losing just 5 to 10 percent of your body weight can positively:
- Impact blood pressure.
- Improve cholesterol and blood sugar levels.
- Enhance mobility.
- Improve symptoms associated with sleep apnea and insomnia.
- Offer relief for joint and back pain.
If your BMI is greater than 30, Prevea’s Medical Weight Loss program is a practical, healthy and safe way to lose weight. It is all about eating healthy foods: lean meats, lots of fruits and vegetables, lower carbs, and only fats that are healthy, such as avocados, olive oil and nuts. Since each person's weight loss goal is unique, patients will follow a structured nutrition plan based on individualized macronutrient needs.
Prevea’s Medical Weight Loss program provides one-on-one counseling and education with ongoing support for weight loss through maintenance. Patients are seen for 12 follow up sessions with our health and wellness specialist to monitor their progress.
A health and wellness specialist is a trained wellness professional who collaborates with clients to identify SMART goals, determine health or lifestyle changes and establish a plan for follow-up to achieve maximum results.
Our registered nurse will coordinate care with your primary care provider and other specialists for a well-rounded care plan and ensure all aspects of your health are considered prior to and during your weight loss journey.
