Weight Management

Obesity is not simply a matter of being “out of shape” or a few pounds overweight. It is a serious, chronic health problem that can significantly increase your risk for hypertension, diabetes, coronary artery disease, osteoarthritis, sleep apnea, respiratory problems and even cancer.

Obesity is treatable with medical supervision and lifestyle changes. At Christiana Care’s Weight Management Center, we can help you achieve permanent weight loss and reduce your risk for obesity-related illnesses.

Success starts with a long-term plan. We offer a full array of options, including one-on-one counseling, group classes, personalized medically supervised programs, a meal-replacement program and bariatric surgery. Our programs are directed by board-certified doctors who specialize in metabolic diseases and weight control. You will benefit from the collective knowledge and experience of our team, which also includes nurse practitioners, registered dietitians, exercise physiologists and clinical psychologists. In individual sessions and group classes, we will partner with you to implement weight loss strategies that work.

Christiana Care is designated as a Bariatric Center of Excellence by the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, accredited by the American College of Surgeons Bariatric Surgery Center Network, is a Blue Distinction designee from BlueCross BlueShield Association, a 3 Star Quality Bariatric Center from Cigna and an Aetna Quality Bariatric Surgery Facility.
