Help your child safely lose weight with a customized medical plan
Your Ally in Medical Weight Management for Kids & Teens
You don’t need another lecture about diet and exercise—you need a doctor who understands the science of weight regulation. Each time you go to a doctor, you probably wonder if you will have to protect your child’s self-esteem or if you have found someone who "gets it." Not here. Here you have finally met an ally. No blame, no shame, no justifying your choices or decisions.
Dieting Alone Doesn’t Work
A Healthy Mind & Healthy Body For Life
If you’ve ever felt like dieting just doesn’t work, you’re right. The body has built-in survival mechanisms designed to resist weight loss. It’s not about willpower. It is just biology.
The Body Fights Weight Loss
When weight drops, the brain senses a threat. It slows metabolism, increases hunger hormones, and reduces energy use—all to push weight back up. This is why most diets fail long-term.

Set-Point Theory
Your child’s body has a preferred weight range that it works hard to defend. Genetics, hormones, and past weight history all influence this range, making it difficult to maintain weight loss without medical intervention.

How Medication Can Help
Medications like Wegovy can reduce hunger signals and override the body’s built-in weight defense system, allowing for sustainable, long-term weight management without constant struggle.

Expert Care from a Doctor Who Gets It
Parents seeking medical weight management for their child often face uncertainty—not just about treatment options, but about the doctor sitting across from them.
Will they listen? Will they understand? Or will this be another frustrating conversation filled with judgment and outdated advice?
I want you to know that you’ve found an ally. You don’t have to prove you’ve tried everything. You don’t have to justify your child’s needs.
You deserve a doctor who understands the science of weight regulation and supports your family with compassion and expertise.
I’m Dr. Natasha Agbai, a board-certified pediatrician and diplomat of the American Board of Obesity Medicine (ABOM)—a distinction held by very few pediatricians nationwide.
I graduated with honors from UCLA Medical School and serve on the National AAP COACH Network, where I teach and guide other pediatricians in the latest, most effective strategies for pediatric obesity management. Simply put—I don’t just practice this field, I help shape it.
By practicing outside of insurance networks in a concierge model, I have the freedom to provide the kind of care my patients deserve. That means longer visits, direct access to me, and a treatment plan designed for your child—not an insurance company.
Weight management is complex. Blame, shame, and outdated advice have no place here. Instead, I offer science-backed solutions, compassionate guidance, and a commitment to helping every child achieve a healthy mind and body—for life.
