The Orthopedic Weight Loss Program was designed specifically for patients in need of a joint replacement who may require weight loss to improve their postsurgical outcomes. The program is led by BayCare health coaches who are certified or licensed medical professionals and specialize in helping support healthy lifestyle changes.

When joining the Orthopedic Weight Loss Program, a health coach will connect with you to create a specific action plan to help you achieve your health and wellness goals. They’ll meet with you virtually on a weekly basis to support you through this program and help break down large, overwhelming goals into smaller achievable steps.
