Weight Management & Obesity Medicine
Lifestyle changes or bariatric surgery aren’t your only options achieving your weight loss goals. The Henry Ford Weight Management and Obesity Medicine Program offers several different approaches for safe weight loss. Instead of trying to lose weight on your own, our team of experts can help you choose one of our unique programs that are designed to get you results.
Our weight management programs are built on the philosophy that a strong foundation is necessary to reach your desired goals. Your success is rooted in 5 pillars: healthy nutrition, exercise and planned physical activity, mind matters, healthy environment, and accountability. Your care team will help coach you in each of these pillars as you pursue your weight loss journey.
Choosing your ideal best weight loss program
Our available plans are all structured differently so you can choose the plan that suits you best. Plan options include:
- Full meal replacement
- Partial meal replacement
- Guided grocery store plan
Weight loss drugs
In addition to these weight loss programs, you also work with our obesity medicine providers to learn about anti-obesity drugs and how they can aid in your weight loss success.
Plan Options
As part of the weight management program, you will receive a unique plan tailored directly to you. Through a combination of healthy eating, supplements and exercise, you will work with experts who will assist you in achieving your weight loss goals – and help you stay there.
Weight loss takes a lot of time and effort, which is why we ask our patients involved in the weight management program for a minimum of a four-month commitment. You may choose to extend your program past this time period, as there are different plans to accommodate you. There are also education and other preventative programs available, as well as access to ongoing online support. In addition to the weight management program, there are various self-paced wellness and learning programs available at your convenience.
Pricing
The exact price of your weight management program is unique to the services you use. Depending on your insurance provider, some -- if not all -- of the costs associated with this program may be covered.
Locations
Our programs are available at several locations across southeast Michigan and virtually.
