Would you like to positively impact your health every day?

A healthy lifestyle is key to achieving and maintaining a healthy body weight. Lifestyle includes  eating pattern, physical activity, sleep, stress management, and use of substances such as nicotine  and alcohol. Daily habits can have a profound impact on weight and overall health. As a Board Certified Lifestyle Medicine Physician, Dr. Mough can assist with goal setting and provide ongoing  support, motivation and guidance to help you reach new milestones along the path to wellness. 

Lifestyle interventions form the foundation of an effective weight management program, but some  individuals may benefit from additional treatments such as anti-obesity medications. Dr. Mough is  also Board-Certified in Obesity Medicine, offering expertise in the medical management of obesity.  She will collaborate with you to create an individualized treatment plan to help you reach your  health-related goals. She also provides specialized medical care and support for individuals in  preparation for and following bariatric surgery. 

If you are interested, please work with your primary care doctor during your visit and we will  connect you for more information!

"Dr. Mough has been able to help me understand what nutrition is about. She has taught me that nutrition is not so much a restriction, but is more of a benefit. I have already started seeing success. I don’t like to take medications, and I feel like these plans will help me decrease my need for some medications going forward."
