Weigh Smart Programs
In all Weigh Smart® programs, your child will learn about healthy foods and activities. We work closely with each family to tailor treatment to your financial situation, your family dynamics, and your child's health needs.
You'll get written feedback on your child's progress and health improvement during the program, including their weight.
We'll ask you to stay on-site during each session and join discussions.
Medically supervised weight management programs include:
- Weigh Smart® for children 8-17 years
- Weigh Smart® Jr. for children 2-7 years
- A bariatric surgery option is also available

- Weigh Smart® Intensive Group – Sessions are twice per week for 8 weeks with our nutrition and exercise staff. One two-hour evening session includes one hour of discussion and one hour of fun group exercise, and the other evening session is exercise only. Ages 5-17.
