University of Pittsburgh Medical Center

UPMC Lifestyle Medicine is a specialization. Our team includes board-certified Lifestyle Medicine physicians, physician assistants, a dietitian, and a health coach. Our providers make recommendations for Lifestyle Medicine services based on your referral, your medical history, and your needs. Our programs include individual appointments and group appointments, which are called group medical visits. .  

Group medical visits are a newer way to manage health and allow for learning from other people (sharing struggles and successes) who are working through similar health situations. Research shows that group medical visits increase confidence in managing health, allow more time with a provider to ask and discuss questions, and teach positive ways to successfully improve lifestyle choices. This results in your ability to better manage your health.
