KairWell Weight and Wellness (KW3) is a comprehensive medical weight loss and wellness center and a committed partner in the lifelong pursuit of looking and feeling better and remaining healthy and independent. Our leaders boast decades of weight loss, wellness, and health coaching experience that they will put-to-use to help clients achieve their wellness goals. Medical weight loss is done under the supervision of healthcare professionals and incorporates behavioral modifications such as eating the appropriate amount and types of food, increased daily activity, planning and record keeping, and increased social support. When behavior modification fails to achieve adequate weight loss, medications can be prescribed and ultimately weight loss surgery recommended in cases where it is appropriate.

We also offer health coaching services. Health coaches are licensed health professionals like doctors, nurses, and physician assistants who have received special certification in applying personalized interventions to safely engage clients in incremental health behavior change. This means that a certified health coach will partner with clients to develop strategies to maintain or develop a healthier lifestyle. Clients learn how to better self-manage wellness and chronic health conditions to improve their wellbeing, reduce the risk of health disasters, and potentially reduce medical costs and resource use. Our program is comprehensive as it offers direct consultation to our affiliated personal training gym and direct referrals to our bariatric surgeon who is the clinic medical director.
