What is Washington Center for Weight Management & Research?
Washington Center for Weight Management & Research is an obesity and weight-management practice at 2800 Shirlington Rd #505, in Arlington, VA. The approach is broad and medically supervised: endocrine evaluation and management, obesity medications, pre- and post-gastric-bypass management, nutritional planning, emotional and behavioral support, cognitive behavioral training, exercise planning and coaching (group and individual), group education (in person and virtual), resting metabolic rate assessment, meal replacements, weight maintenance, plus grocery store tours, cooking classes, and workshops.
It's directed by Domenica M. Rubino, MD, with Estela Schnelle, MS RDN, listed as the dietitian.
