Medical Weight Loss - Fishkill

Medical weight loss at Nuvance Health is a structured program where you will have frequent visits with:

• ---

  AnnaMaria C. Arias-Denley, DO: Specialist in bariatric medicine

  ---

Our team will develop a personal weight loss plan that addresses nutrition, lifestyle, behavior and exercise.

We also prescribe anti obesity medication when clinically appropriate and indicated. You may expect to lose 5-10% of your weight and sometimes even more – within a six month time frame.  Results are unique for each patient

This is not a surgical weight loss program. However, if you are considering weight loss surgery or have had weight loss surgery already, then you are also a great candidate for our program. The team collaborates closely with bariatric surgery specialists at Vassar Brothers Medical Center.

The program qualifies for Medicare Intensive Behavioral Therapy for weight loss. All visits are regular medical office visits and subject to specialist co-pays, deductibles and co-insurance.

Your provider will do a detailed review of your most recent labs and decide if further lab assessments are needed.

Our team may provide:

A referral for resting metabolic rate testing: An advanced cardiac risk assessment with the Nuvance Health cardiovascular disease prevention program.

Our providers communicate regularly with your healthcare team and office notes are copied directly to them following each visit.

Not all insurances cover weight loss medication. The team works with you to find the most affordable options.
