WEIGHT LOSS MANAGEMENT
Let us help you lose weight safely and effectively with a plan that is tailored for your individual needs.

COVID-19 UPDATES
First Choice Health Care is closely monitoring the most up to date, rapidly changing CDC guidelines to keep everyone safe.
COVID-19 Pre-cautions
Each person entering our clinic is required to wear a mask and will be screened at the door for fever and symptoms. Inform us if you or anyone at home is not feeling well or was exposed to someone with COVID-19. Limit the number of people and items in our clinic. Siblings and additional adults are asked to stay home. Practice social distancing. Our office staff wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) for all visits and rooms are cleaned after each patient to ensure your protection and ours.

For the safety of our staff and patients, stay in your vehicle and call our office when you arrive. A member of our staff will be out shortly to obtain your information and administer the test.
Seperate Well & Sick Waiting Rooms
Our clinic is split with a sick and well side to reduce infectious exposures and keep patients separate as much as possible. We ask that you limit the number of people accompanying you to your appointment. You may also choose to stay in your vehicle until your appointment time. Call us when you arrive and we will come to you. Telehealth visits are also available and can be a safer more convenient option. Request a telehealth visit when scheduling your next appointment.
