Managing your weight is about more than a number on the scale. Factors like medical conditions, medications, hormones, stress, sleep, and lifestyle can all influence your ability to maintain a healthy weight.

Our physician-led program begins by understanding the factors that may be affecting your weight and overall health. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan that fits your health goals, lifestyle, and long-term wellness.
Whether you’re looking to improve your energy, lower your risk of chronic disease, or feel healthier and more confident, our team is here to support you every step of the way.

What Makes Our Weight Management Program Different?
Successful weight management is about more than losing weight—it’s about improving your overall health through a plan that’s designed specifically for you.
At Avance Care, we combine physician-led care with personalized support to help you build sustainable habits and make meaningful progress toward your health goals. Our program focuses on long-term wellness, not quick fixes.
Physician-Led Care
Your care is guided by experienced medical providers who take the time to understand your health history, current medications, and overall wellness before developing a personalized treatment plan.
Personalized Treatment Plans
No two patients are alike. Your care plan is tailored to your unique health goals, lifestyle, and medical needs and evolves as your needs change over time.
Whole-Person Support
When appropriate, your care team may include registered dietitians and behavioral health providers to help support nutrition, behavior change, and other factors that influence your overall health.
Ongoing Care
Weight management doesn’t end after your first appointment. Regular follow-up visits allow your provider to monitor your progress, answer questions, and adjust your care plan as needed.
Your Care Plan: What to Expect
Every weight management journey is different. That’s why your care begins with getting to know you.
During your first visit, your provider will discuss your health history, lifestyle, previous weight management experiences, and personal goals. Together, you’ll develop a personalized plan that’s realistic, sustainable, and tailored to your needs.
Depending on your health and goals, your care plan may include:
- Personalized lifestyle recommendations
- Nutrition counseling
- Physical activity guidance
- Behavioral health support, when appropriate
- Prescription weight management medications, including GLP-1 medications when medically appropriate
- Regular follow-up visits to celebrate progress, answer questions, and adjust your plan as needed
Our goal is to provide the guidance, support, and medical expertise you need to make meaningful, lasting improvements to your health.
