PATHWEIGH is a process for primary care to provide, and patients to receive, medical assistance with weight loss and weight loss maintenance. PATHWEIGH is NOT a weight loss program, it is a care process that focuses on reducing excess body weight and weight-related medical complications. Patients receive highly individualized, flexible and evolving care based on their needs, access and preference. This care is provided in the comfort and familiarity of primary care where a long-term relationship is key to success.
