Obesity

It is a serious condition that increases your risk of developing a variety of health problems, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

NYU Langone’s team of weight management experts includes internists who specialize in obesity treatment; registered dietitians, who assist in meal planning; endocrinologists, doctors who treat hormone conditions; and bariatric, or weight loss, surgeons. These specialists work together to create a personalized plan to help you lose weight and prevent or manage obesity-related conditions.

Providers at NYU Langone’s Weight Management Program offer a wide range of evidence-based treatment options to help you lose weight, including medically supervised meal replacement with nutritional and behavioral support.
