Weight Management & Metabolic Health
Weight management and metabolic health focus on addressing the underlying factors that influence weight, energy, and long-term health—not just the number on the scale. This includes evaluating metabolism, lifestyle habits, and related medical conditions to create sustainable, personalized plans.
At Colorado Springs Direct Primary Care, weight and metabolic care is individualized, supportive, and provided by a board certified Obesity Medicine physician. We prioritize realistic goals, long-term success, and health improvements that fit your life.
