When choosing a lifestyle management program, it is important to look at the long-term success rate of the program - "quick fixes" are not the answer to long-term success. The Duke Diet & Fitness Center has pioneered the "sensible diet" approach to weight management. The lifestyle changes you will adopt at the Center are designed to help you make positive changes in your life, including reducing unhealthy body weight and increasing your level of physical activity.
Scientific information is applied to the development of a practical goal-oriented program for you. As a treatment facility for the management of patients with weight problems and its complications, the Duke Diet & Fitness Center works closely with other resources to understand better and effectively treat people with their challenging health problems. Their program is designed for adults aging 18 and up and is also dedicated to educating about the processes of making a healthy switch in lifestyle. Because every guest has a different schedule, abilities, interests, and medical needs, their program is tailored to address each need.
