About Pediatrics - Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program

Based in Roslindale, MA, the Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program is dedicated to addressing childhood obesity through a comprehensive, family-centered, and evidence-based approach. Our specialty weight management clinic recognizes the unique challenges families face and offers a pathway toward healthier lifestyles tailored to individual needs. Each patient benefits from thorough assessments conducted by our team, including physicians and dietitians, followed by personalized action plans that encompass six intensive treatment visits and ongoing support for up to a year. We emphasize motivation, emotional readiness, and the importance of collaboration with primary care and other specialists to ensure holistic care. Our program is particularly sensitive to the psychological impacts of obesity, acknowledging that many children may require additional counseling due to issues like stigmatization and lowered self-esteem. To initiate care, a referral from a primary care physician is necessary, guiding families toward lasting changes in nutrition and fitness for healthier futures.
