Medical Provider Team
CCM Health has a dedicated team of licensed medical providers on staff to assist you in your weight loss journey. Our clinicians will evaluate and prescribe for you the best treatment to achieve your weight loss goals. They are dedicated to your well-being to help ensure weight loss is achieved in a healthy way and will provide you the support and guidance needed to help you lose weight.
Surgery Team
For patients who need more support than lifestyle changes alone can offer, CCM Health’s surgery team is here to help. Led by Dr. Robert Johnson, our team offers minimally invasive procedures like ESG and TORe. There are no one-size-fits-all answers here — we’ll walk you through each option, answer your questions, and help you choose the path that best fits your health and your goals.
Behavioral Health Team
Working with trained behavioral health therapists can help you address some of the emotions that affect your eating habits (triggers). Our behavioral health therapists are available to you and can help you identify your triggers and how to best manage them. Learning to manage your emotions in a healthy way can help you lose weight and keep it off. It can also improve your mood, overall confidence, and well-being.
Dietitian
CCM Health’s Registered Dietitian can assist you to identify healthy and satisfying food choices that help you to lose and maintain weight loss. The Thrive program does not require a specific diet and is geared towards what will work for you. Everything we suggest is simple, has variety, and is nutritionally balanced.
Personal Trainer
CCM Health’s personal trainers will work with you one-to-one to develop work-out goals that can assist you to achieve weight loss, strengthen muscles, and develop muscle tone.
