Weight Management

At Clarinda Regional Health Center (CRHC) we know that weight loss is a journey where a complete approach is the best way to achieve long term success. We are dedicated to providing a compassionate and team-centered approach to weight loss.


If you’ve struggled with being overweight and traditional weight loss solutions haven’t worked, you’re far from being alone in this battle. Obesity affects millions of Americans. It is a complex metabolic disease that occurs as a result of both our genetic make-up and environmental forces. In simple terms, obesity is caused by the consumption of too many calories relative to the amount of energy used. The Weight Management Program at Clarinda Regional Health Center (CRHC) is available to help our patients to identify strategies that will result in long-term weight management of overweight individuals, utilizing the latest research and clinical strategies.
