About Pediatrics - Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program

Located in Salem, MA, the Nutrition and Fitness for Life Program specializes in pediatric weight management through a family-centered and evidence-based approach tailored to combat childhood obesity. Understanding that many families may initially feel unprepared for behavior management, we offer vital counseling sessions to help improve roles, responsibilities, communication, and motivation. Each child receives a personalized care plan that includes thorough assessments from both a physician and dietitian, lifestyle change interventions with intensive treatment sessions, and ongoing maintenance support. Our multidisciplinary team collaborates with primary care providers and various specialty clinics to ensure comprehensive care, particularly for children facing complex medical challenges. Recognizing the psychological burdens linked to obesity, we also provide access to psychological support for those 13 percent of our patients who experience additional emotional difficulties. A referral from a Primary Care Physician is essential for evaluation and treatment, ensuring that every child receives the focused care they need to thrive.
