Obesity is a Chronic Disease.
Choose MetroHealth for Treatment that Fits You
If you’ve struggled with obesity, you know that simply moving more and eating less doesn’t always work. That’s because obesity is a disease that changes your body. Sometimes, these changes can cause serious diseases like cancer, diabetes, heart disease and sleep disorders.
Treating obesity can also help with:
- High blood sugar
- High blood pressure
- Snoring, excessive fatigue and sleeping issues
- Sore joints or difficulty moving
- Asthma or trouble catching your breath
At MetroHealth, our team walks alongside you to create a treatment plan that fits your needs. Our team includes board-certified obesity medicine experts, surgeons, dietitians and mental health professionals.
The MetroHealth Difference
The MetroHealth Weight Loss Center was the first in Ohio to achieve dual accreditation in Adult Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery and Obesity Medicine from the Metabolic and Bariatric Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program. This means we’ve met certain treatment standards and can provide expert advice for the healthiest results.

Many of our obesity medicine specialists have walked in your shoes. We understand what it takes to live with obesity. It’s one of the reasons why MetroHealth is the right healthcare partner for your weight loss journey.
