EVIDENCE-BASED EXPERTISE IN WEIGHT SCIENCE

SEEING THE WHOLE PERSON

After years of healing obesity and related disease, Dr. Maria Douros founded her Healthy Weight Institute to provide an evidence-based, compassionate, and personalized management to achieving a healthy weight and maintaining it for a lifetime.

LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE

Weight Science is very complex. Dr. Douros works with each patient as an individual to learn about their unique history, lifestyle, and obstacles to maintaining a healthy weight. Along with nutritional and exercise modifications, she places a strong emphasis on discovering and correcting any neuroendocrine issues frequently overlooked. These issues are often a hidden, but important influence on healthy weight management.

The Healthy Weight Method is a comprehensive approach to reaching and maintaining your goals toward your best life.
