Three options—in-person, virtual and virtual plus, with a hybrid of in-person and virtual components—are now available. Visit cooperweightloss.com or call 972.367.6100.

“Our data driven program is based on science and expertise to help you achieve a healthier weight and lifestyle. Our clients who fully engage in the Cooper Weight Loss program and all it has to offer have been very successful with not only their weight loss but also their overall health goals,” says Dr. Emily Hebert, Cooper Clinic Platinum Preventive Medicine Physician. 

Once participants are vetted by the Cooper Weight Loss team, the program is customized for each participant to meet individual health goals, develop healthy habits for life and achieve long-term weight loss.

Opportunities to focus on exercise are provided within all three tiers of the program with on demand group exercise classes. In-person participants also receive a complimentary six-month membership to Cooper Fitness Center, plus options to work with Cooper Fitness Center Professional Fitness Trainers in private sessions or as part of a group setting with our Female Focus group training program.
