André Heikius is an experienced weight-management physician whose areas of expertise include the treatment of overweight and obesity, safe weight loss, and long-term weight management. He is the Chief Medical Officer at Painoklinikka and also serves, among other roles, as the Executive Director of the Finnish Association of Obesity Physicians.

At a weight-management physician’s appointment, you will receive a comprehensive assessment for the treatment of overweight and obesity, as well as evidence-based support for weight loss. At the initial visit, an individualized treatment plan will be created for you, including personalized care instructions that take into account your health status and any medications, along with support for weight loss tailored to your life situation.

There are also new, effective medical treatments for overweight and obesity that can be combined with lifestyle changes.
