Griffin Hospital has teamed with Medi-Weightloss® to bring the nation’s premier physician-supervised weight loss program to Shelton!
Medi-Weightloss® Shelton broadens the range of weight loss services available to the community, which include weight loss surgical and support services through Griffin Bariatrics. Griffin’s partnership with Medi-Weightloss® provides a weight loss and wellness option that is more intensive than diet and exercise alone but less aggressive than surgery.
Obesity involves a complex combination of genetic, biological, and lifestyle issues specific to each individual, so there is no one plan fits all solution. That’s why the Medi-Weightloss® Program appealed to Griffin.
