At Progress Weight Management, health isn’t just about numbers on a scale—it’s about leading healthier lives and achieving long-term well-being. With a focus on cardiometabolic health, Progress Weight Management offers personalized, medically-driven care that serves both adults and children.
Personalized Care for Every Stage of Life
Progress Weight Management understands that parents often put their children’s needs first, but managing their own health is equally important. The clinic offers customized weight management plans that encourage parents to lead by example.
An in-house dietitian works closely with patients, developing individualized nutrition plans for both adults and children. Whether it’s portion control, meal planning, or addressing specific dietary needs, the goal is to make nutrition both achievable and sustainable.
“We believe that weight management is about health, not just pounds lost,” the team said. “Our approach focuses on improving well-being, celebrating non-scale victories, and promoting a positive relationship with food and body.”
Specialized Pediatric Care
Recognizing the sensitive nature of pediatric obesity, Progress Weight Management offers compassionate, non-judgmental care for children and adolescents. Their pediatric program includes age-appropriate counseling and, when necessary, anti-obesity medications for clients aged 12 and older. Early intervention helps prevent future health complications by addressing both the physical and emotional aspects of weight management. Genetic testing is also available for those with early-onset severe obesity.
“Our goal is to foster healthy habits from a young age,” the team said. “By promoting a supportive environment, we empower kids to feel confident and succeed in their health journey without stigma.”
A Holistic Approach to Cardiometabolic Health
Excess weight can increase the risk of conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension. Progress Weight Management addresses these risks through a comprehensive approach that includes cardiometabolic assessments, behavioral counseling, and medical interventions.
For those who qualify, the clinic offers anti-obesity medications, such as GLP-1 treatments (including Wegovy and Zepbound), as part of a broader weight management plan. The team carefully evaluates each client’s medical history to ensure safe and effective care.
Founders with a Passion for Change
Progress Weight Management was founded by Cody Baxter and Stephanie Severson, two medical professionals with a passion for providing exceptional obesity care. With advanced certifications from the Obesity Medicine Association, Cody and Stephanie bring expertise and empathy to their work. Their commitment to continuous learning ensures that the clinic remains at the forefront of obesity treatment.
“At Progress, we aim to fill the gap in traditional healthcare by providing compassionate, expert care for patients dealing with obesity,” Cody said. “We know how frustrating the journey can be, and we are here to help every step of the way.”
