CNC quite literally changed—and may have even saved—my life. Before finding CNC, my health was at an all-time low. I was borderline diabetic, struggling with high blood pressure, eating poorly, exhausted… read more all the time, and honestly had just about given up on myself and my overall well-being. Then I found CNC and their incredible team of caring professionals who truly saw me, heard me, and helped me create a realistic plan to reclaim my health. What makes CNC so special is that their approach is not just about weight loss—it’s about helping the whole person. From day one, I felt supported, encouraged, and genuinely cared for. The consistent check-ins, guidance, accountability, and compassion have made all the difference in my journey. I’m now 10 weeks in, and I cannot believe how much better I feel. I have more energy, a renewed outlook on life, I’m more active, and for the first time in a long time, I’m eating properly and consistently. My nutrition coach MaryEllen has been absolutely amazing throughout this process, and Shelby—her sweet pup—has been an unexpected but wonderful part of the experience too! I truly cannot thank the CNC team enough for helping guide me back from the brink and reminding me that my health and happiness matter. I’m excited for the next 10 weeks and beyond! If you are struggling with your health, nutrition, weight, or simply need support getting back on track, I cannot recommend CNC enough. They genuinely care and will help you build a healthier, happier version of yourself.

FAQ
We are a medical clinic and are happy to provide you a receipt for the services you receive. You are welcome to submit these to your health insurance carrier and request reimbursement; however, many insurers do not cover weight loss treatments. We do not bill insurance directly, and our fees are not artificially inflated for purposes of insurance billing.
We encourage you to set up a free 30 minute consultation with one of our amazing Registered Dietitians. We can review our programs, give you a chance to see the clinic and meet the staff, and figure out if this is going to be a good fit.
Losing weight and keeping it off is far more than eating less or moving more. Decades of experience have shown that keeping weight off is hard because the body fights back. For this reason, we need a very structured approach to eating, physical activity, environmental restructuring, behavior change, and medical weight loss management. Otherwise, before we know it, the lost weight seems to find its way back!
If your BMI is 30 or more, or if it is 27 or more with a related medical problem like elevated blood pressure or cholesterol, then the use of weight loss medication is now recommended. There are lots of choices ranging from older inexpensive generic medications to the very expensive injectable GLP-1 medications. Whether or not to use these medications is a complex decision that we individualize with every patient.
Medical weight loss management is far more than adding weight loss medication. Sometimes there are other medications causing weight gain – removing one of those, or substituting an appropriate different weight-neutral medication can be incredibly helpful! There are often missed diagnoses or mismanaged diagnoses making weight loss challenging – slow metabolism, slow thyroid, sleep apnea, liver or kidney problems, pre-diabetes and the like. Our providers are skilled at looking at the whole picture, not just the weight.
We offer patients evidence-based medical treatments; however, we are not a surgical practice. Most patients considering weight loss surgery are required by insurers to undergo a 6 month medical weight loss program first. We are happy to refer for surgery, and can work with you both before and afterwards.
