About HealthyHER Center for Women's Care
HealthyHER Center for Women's Care in Chesapeake specializes in comprehensive women's health services with a strong focus on weight management and wellness. Our team understands that women face unique challenges for maintaining a healthy weight throughout different life stages, from reproductive years through menopause and beyond.
We combine traditional medical expertise with holistic approaches to create personalized weight loss plans that work with your body's natural rhythms. Our integrated approach includes gynecological care, nutritional counseling, and therapeutic massage to address the whole person, not just the numbers on the scale.
Services Offered
Our weight loss services are designed specifically for women's unique physiological needs. We offer comprehensive hormone evaluations to identify imbalances that may be affecting your metabolism and weight management efforts. Our medical team provides prescription weight loss medications when appropriate, combined with detailed nutritional planning that considers your lifestyle and preferences. We also incorporate stress management techniques, as we know stress can significantly impact weight loss success. Our on-site massage therapy helps reduce cortisol levels and improves circulation, supporting your overall wellness journey. Additionally, we provide ongoing gynecological care to ensure your reproductive health remains optimal throughout your weight loss process. Each patient receives a customized meal planning guide and access to our registered dietitian for monthly consultations. We also offer group support sessions where women can share experiences and motivation in a comfortable, understanding environment.

What to Expect
Your journey begins with a comprehensive health assessment that includes hormone testing, metabolic rate analysis, and a detailed discussion of your weight loss history and goals. We'll review any underlying conditions that might be affecting your weight and develop a personalized treatment plan. Follow-up appointments occur every two weeks initially, then monthly as you progress. Each visit includes weight and measurement tracking, dietary review, and plan adjustments as needed. We provide 24/7 access to our patient portal where you can track your progress, access meal plans, and communicate with your care team between visits.
Why Choose HealthyHER Center for Women's Care
What sets HealthyHER apart is our deep understanding of women's health and how it impacts weight management. Unlike generic weight loss clinics, we address the root causes of weight gain that are specific to women, including hormonal fluctuations, stress, and life transitions. Our integrated approach means you're getting comprehensive care under one roof. We don't believe in quick fixes or extreme measures. Instead, we focus on sustainable lifestyle changes that improve your overall health and energy levels. Our success rates are higher because we treat the whole woman, not just the symptom of excess weight.
Insurance & Pricing
We accept most major insurance plans for medical weight management services, including consultations, lab work, and prescription medications when medically necessary. Self-pay options are available for those without coverage or seeking additional services like massage therapy. Initial comprehensive evaluations range from $200-300, with follow-up visits typically $75-100. Package deals are available for those committed to long-term care, offering significant savings. We also offer flexible payment plans to make our services accessible to more women.
First-Time Patient Tips
Before your first visit, complete our online health questionnaire and gather any recent lab results or medical records related to previous weight loss attempts. We recommend coming in comfortable clothing as we'll take measurements and possibly perform a body composition analysis. Bring a list of all current medications and supplements. It's helpful to keep a food diary for a week before your appointment to give us insight into your current eating patterns. Don't start any extreme diets before coming in, as we want to assess your baseline metabolism. Most importantly, come with realistic expectations and an open mind about making gradual, sustainable changes.
