Weight Management in Columbus, OH

Your Path to a Healthier Weight 

No two weight loss journeys are the same. That’s why Mount Carmel offers a full spectrum of care—so you can find the approach that fits your health, lifestyle and goals. Our integrated approach brings together medical care, nutrition, behavior change and activity; the core components of effective weight management to support long-term success. 

Medical Weight Management

Our medical weight loss program provides a structured, physician-guided approach to help you lose weight safely and effectively. 

Your care plan may include:

• Personalized weight loss strategies
• Medication-assisted treatment when appropriate
• Ongoing monitoring and support 

This option is ideal for patients seeking a non-surgical path with clinical oversight. 

Non-surgical Weight Loss

Bariatric Surgery

For qualifying patients, bariatric surgery can be a highly effective solution for achieving significant, long-term weight loss and improving obesity-related health conditions.

Surgical options include minimally invasive procedures such as:

• Gastric sleeve
• Gastric bypass
• Adjustable gastric band

These procedures work by impacting digestion and hormones to support sustained weight loss and improved health outcomes.

Bariatric Surgery

Healthy weight loss starts with building sustainable habits. Our registered dietitians provide one-on-one guidance tailored to your needs.
Services include:

• Customized nutrition plans that emphasize whole foods, lean proteins, fiber-rich carbohydrates and healthy fats
• Meal planning, portion control and mindful eating strategies
• Education on food choices, label reading and grocery planning
• Support for physical activity routines, sleep and stress management

Diet and nutrition contribute to long-term weight control by creating a sustainable calorie balance, stabilizing blood sugar, preserving lean muscle with adequate protein, and establishing repeatable routines that fit your lifestyle. Our team helps you translate these principles into daily choices for long-term weight loss management.
