MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS & NUTRITION · HILLSBORO & LAKE OSWEGO
Medical Weight Loss & Nutrition in Hillsboro & Lake Oswego, OR
A physician-supervised program that combines nutritional counseling, lab work, and medical support to help you reach your health goals safely. Provided by Dr. Rosalia Juarez, ND, in English and Spanish.
Medically Supervised Weight Loss & Nutrition
Sustainable change starts with understanding what is happening inside your body. At Amaranta, our nutrition and weight management program is led by Dr. Rosalia Juarez, ND, a licensed naturopathic doctor and primary care physician. Rather than a one-size-fits-all diet, your care is built on lab work, a full health history, and a plan designed around your individual goals and medical needs.
Because Dr. Juarez practices both conventional and naturopathic medicine, she can address the factors that often make weight and metabolic health difficult to manage on your own, including thyroid and hormonal influences, blood sugar, nutrient status, and digestion. Medication may be incorporated when it is clinically appropriate, always alongside nutrition and lifestyle support. Care is available at both our Hillsboro and Lake Oswego offices.
Why Choose a Physician-Supervised Program
Working with a licensed physician means your plan is grounded in your actual health data, not guesswork. Dr. Juarez completed a four-year doctoral program at the National University of Natural Medicine and is licensed by the Oregon Board of Naturopathic Medicine. She can order and interpret lab work, account for medications and existing conditions, and adjust your plan safely over time.
The goal is healthy, lasting change rather than quick fixes. Patients receive ongoing follow-up, honest guidance, and a program that respects their whole health. If a different approach or a referral is the right step, Dr. Juarez will tell you.
