Steps to Achieving Real Teenage Weight Loss Success
The STARS Teenage Weight Loss Program compliments our existing Comprehensive Bariatric Program that we currently have for adults.
Our special weight loss program is designed for teenagers 13-18 years old and their parents to establish better eating habits and reduce their weight to become healthy and possibly resolve any co-morbid conditions that they may have.
Prior to enrollment in our Weight Loss Program, prospective teenage members are required to attend a Free Weight Loss Seminar to learn about the program and the weight-loss surgeries that we perform for teenagers.

Once enrolled, teenagers in the program will work directly with the Physicians, Dietitian, Fitness Trainer and Mental Health Professional during a 12-week program that is carefully designed to address teenage weight loss. There are individual and group sessions with the entire team to discuss proper nutrition and exercise as well as emotional hindrances to successful weight loss. These discussions will be with the teenage participant and parent/guardian.
At the end of the 12-week program, we discuss with the teenage participant and parent the need to continue in the program or proceed with surgical options for effective long term weight loss.
The program fee will cover materials provided and the individual and/or group sessions.
