Mass General Weight Center
Verified listingAbout Mass General Weight Center
The Mass General Weight Center at 55 Fruit Street is an academic, insurance-based program rather than a cash-pay clinic: obesity medicine specialists run a year-long medication pathway that starts with a metabolic rate breathing test, includes up to four dietitian consultations, and rechecks progress every one to three months with quarterly dietitian check-ins. Non-surgical options span the MINT medically intensive nutrition program, psychology-focused behavioral programs, and eNutrition, with bariatric surgery in-house if medication isn't the answer, plus an affiliated pediatric program. Satellite sites in Salem, Danvers, and Waltham extend access. Expect referrals and hospital-system pacing, not concierge speed — the trade is a multidisciplinary depth few clinics can match.
