Eating disorders - This is our unique approach to helping you manage your relationship with eating and your weight. We understand that there are many levels of a poor relationship with food, and it doesn’t mean that you are necessarily over- or underweight. All are on the rise among our adolescents and adults. And the incidence among boys and young men is increasing as well. We are uniquely trained and equipped to support you and your son or daughter through the recovery process. THE A, B, Cs of Eating Disorders: Anorexia, Bulimia, Compulsive Eating…we get it…and your nutritionist will navigate you through all of this with her team of doctors and therapists and you will get better! It won’t take forever like most programs - you will be amazed at how quickly our patients recover - but not until you are ready. We won’t push you and we’ll take care of your special needs.
