Weight Loss
Notice: SIH New Life Weight Loss Center is transitioning its scope of care. While we will continue to provide patients throughout Southern Illinois with the latest and best medical weight loss options, we will no longer offer a bariatric surgical program to new patients.
Starting a weight loss journey can be challenging, and many individuals find it frustrating to maintain their results. Fortunately, SIH New Life Weight Loss Center is here to provide expert guidance tailored to your unique needs.
Our medical weight loss program addresses a wide range of factors hindering your path to a healthy life, offering services such as nutrition management with a dedicated dietitian, structured support groups, the latest medication options, and even endoscopic and surgical option if and when appropriate.
What to Expect:
Our comprehensive evaluation process delves into various aspects of your health, including medications, environment, triggers for overeating, recent blood work, potential medical causes for weight gain, attitudes toward food, sleep patterns, and stress levels.
Your initial appointment with SIH New Life Weight Loss Center involves seeing an Advanced Practice Provider, ensuring a coordinated plan of care throughout your journey.
Your Plan may Include:
- Protein meal replacement products
- Weight loss medications
- Ongoing behavioral therapy
- Nutritional counseling
