We also provide body composition analysis, meal planning assistance, and ongoing monitoring of key health markers like blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar. Our family-centered approach means we can help multiple family members work toward their health goals simultaneously. Additionally, we offer pediatric weight management for children and teens, addressing childhood obesity with age-appropriate strategies that promote healthy habits without creating negative relationships with food.

What to Expect

Your journey starts with a comprehensive health assessment, including blood work, body composition analysis, and discussion of your weight history. We'll identify any medical factors contributing to weight gain and create a customized treatment plan. Regular follow-up appointments track your progress and adjust your plan as needed.

Our approach emphasizes gradual, sustainable changes rather than crash dieting. We'll teach you practical skills for meal planning, portion control, and managing emotional eating. Throughout your program, you'll have access to our nutritionist for questions and our medical team for any health concerns that arise.

Why Choose Hale Family Practice

Unlike standalone weight loss clinics, we're your family's medical home, which means we understand your complete health picture. This allows us to safely coordinate weight loss treatments with any other medical conditions or medications. Our providers know your family history and can spot potential issues before they become problems.

Our success rate speaks for itself, 78% of our patients maintain significant weight loss at one year. We don't believe in quick fixes or unrealistic promises. Instead, we focus on sustainable lifestyle changes that improve your health for life. Plus, as a medical practice, we can work directly with your insurance company, often making our programs more affordable than commercial weight loss centers.

Insurance & Pricing

Most insurance plans cover weight loss services when medically necessary, especially for patients with obesity-related conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure. We accept Medicare, Medicaid, and most major commercial insurance plans. Our staff will verify your coverage and help you understand your benefits before starting treatment.

For patients without insurance coverage, we offer reasonable self-pay rates and payment plans. Initial consultations start at $150, with follow-up visits typically ranging from $75-$125 depending on the services provided.

First-Time Patient Tips

Come to your first appointment prepared to discuss your complete medical history, including previous weight loss attempts, current medications, and family health history. Bring a list of questions about what to expect from our program. We recommend starting a food diary a week before your visit to help us understand your current eating patterns.

Be honest about your challenges and goals, we're here to help, not judge. If you're taking medications for chronic conditions, don't stop them without our guidance as we may need to adjust dosages as you lose weight. Remember that sustainable weight loss takes time, typically 1-2 pounds per week is both healthy and maintainable.
