For Healthcare Providers
A Clinical-Grade
Online Weight-Loss
Program You Can Trust
Obthera Online is a clinical-grade weight-loss system based on one of the world’s most effective scientific weight-loss approaches. The program is delivered as hands-on or hands-off as you wish. Your patients can access the program online via web-app.
Problem
On average, 60% of people require weight loss. Dietary therapy is the foundation of all obesity management. But there often is not enough time for primary care providers to work with patients to provide specific and actionable nutrition advice or dietary therapy. The level of therapy that makes an impact requires referral to an obesity specialist or a registered dietician (RD). But insurance coverage for RDs or obesity specialists who are experienced in obesity management is difficult to find.
You need to empower your patients to lose weight with an affordable solution without having to reduce the time you spend on their in-clinic needs.

- Hypertension
- Joint pain
- Infertility
- Cancer risk
- Triglycerides
- Sleep apnea severity

Why it Works
Just as medications only work if patients take them consistently and correctly, dietary therapy only works if followed consistently and correctly. Obthera is personalized, and this flexibility and customizability maximizes adherence. At the same time, the recipes users are given are created by Registered Dietitians and are prescriptive and specific to the dietary needs of the individual. So you can be sure the nutrition is also correct for your patient’s weight loss.
