The Nuviva approach to weight loss
Dedicated weight loss doctors and nutrition coaches
Each clinic location has a weight loss doctor and nutrition coach on staff to create a personalized program for you and guide you along every step of the way. This expert support helps promote better results as you work through the program. Working with the same team week after week means developing a real connection and trust system you can always turn to for encouragement and accountability.
Healthy balance of nutrition
and exercise
At Nuviva, our medical weight loss programs pair healthy nutrition with physical activity. This is the key to losing weight and keeping it off for good. At the same time, we understand our patients come to us at all different levels of fitness, so we work with you to craft a workout plan that puts your health and safety first. Our approach isn’t just about helping you lose weight, it’s about helping you get healthier and stronger.
Weight loss medications and supplements
To support your weight loss journey, our Nuviva doctors may prescribe you medications and supplements. These are not “magic pills” or quick-fixes—they’re a key part of our program and designed to work alongside a healthy diet and regular exercise. From reducing cravings to giving you an energy boost, these medications and supplements can mean the difference to finally get you the long-lasting results you want.
