Weight Management Center

Let the Floyd Memorial Weight Management Center be your partner for long-term weight loss.  We know obesity is a medical condition, and that motivation, effort and results don’t always match up.  We’re here to help you overcome that hurdle and find your individual path to a healthy lifestyle.  Our Center offers a full range of support services, staffed by true medical weight-loss professionals who have the knowledge to help you succeed, and genuinely care about improving your health.

The Floyd Memorial Weight Management Center provides you with both non-surgical and surgical weight loss options that not only help you achieve your goal weight, but often improve overall health as well. Many patients’ health issues-from heart disease to diabetes to sleep disorders-disappear after weight loss.  

Through dietary counseling, emotional and behavioral therapy, physician monitoring, customized exercise programs, support groups and gastric banding surgery, we do more than help patients change their bodies, we change their lives.

 A Caring and Experienced Team

Our team can assist you with insurance issues, pre-surgery or medical consultations and testing, post-surgical care, exercise groups, counseling and support groups. We will match services to your individual needs, whether through our non-surgical Health Management Resource (HMR) program, or our Realize Personalized Gastric Banding Solution.

Our team consists of a board-certified physicians, a surgeon and psychiatrist, social workers, registered dietitians, nurses, exercise specialists and other consulting specialists who all share a common goal of helping you succeed.

HMR Weight Management Program

The HMR Weight Management Program is a medically supervised intensive weight loss program available to individuals interested in losing anywhere from 10 to 100 pounds. The program is spearheaded by Floyd Memorial Joslin Diabetes Center Affiliate Board Certified Endocrinologist and Weight Management Specialist Sri Mokshagundam, M.D, and offers several easy-to-follow weight loss plans with regular medical supervision, or “at home kits” to follow on your own.
