At our Center for Weight Management and Bariatric Surgery in Chelmsford, we help people transform their health through comprehensive weight management care. Our clinicians provide medical, nutritional and surgical options tailored to your goals, offering support every step of the way.

We’re proud to serve Chelmsford, Westford, Billerica and surrounding communities with leading bariatric surgery options and medically supervised weight management programs. As part of Lowell General Hospital and Tufts Medicine, you’ll have a full team of medical specialists and nutrition experts cheering you on and working together to help you live a healthier life.

Finding the right path is a personal decision. That's why our center for weight management offers a complete range of services. We create a plan that fits your life and health goals, whether that includes lifestyle changes, medical support or a surgical procedure.

For those who qualify, bariatric surgery can be a powerful tool for lasting change. Our surgical team specializes in minimally invasive procedures, which often mean a shorter hospital stay and quicker recovery. We'll guide you through the entire process, from pre-surgery education to post-surgery support. Our primary surgical options include:

• Gastric sleeve (Sleeve gastrectomy): This procedure reduces the size of your stomach, helping you feel full sooner and eat less.
• Gastric bypass (Roux-en-Y): This surgery changes how your stomach and small intestine process food, which helps you absorb fewer calories and feel full faster.

Our center for weight management also features medically supervised programs. These are excellent options for individuals who are not candidates for surgery or prefer a non-surgical approach. These plans are managed by our clinicians and dietitians and may include:

• Nutrition counseling + planning
• Customized physical activity plans
• Lifestyle and behavior coaching
• Medications such as GLP-1, when appropriate

We want to make it easy to get the support you need. We offer virtual visits, telemedicine and online education sessions in addition to our in-person clinic visits at the North Chelmsford campus of Lowell General Hospital.
