Weight Management

If you are concerned that your child may have a weight problem, you have access to a team of experts at the Vermont Children's Hospital at Fletcher Allen.

Here, we've designed a specialized program that provides comprehensive evaluations, diagnoses and treatment for overweight children and adolescents.

The Childhood & Adolescent Weight Management Clinic offers patients and their families a team approach focused not only on helping your child lose weight, but also on developing a lifelong healthy eating plan.

Our team consists of:

• a physician or nurse practitioner
• a psychologist
  
• a dietician 

How to schedule an appointment

If you think your child has a weight problem, discuss this with your primary care provider.  He or she can help you determine whether your child would be a good candidate for the Childhood & Adolescent Weight Management Clinic. For more information, please call us at (802) 847-4488.
