We combine the principles of functional medicine with the proven benefits of the Mediterranean lifestyle to support you on your weight loss journey. Located in Tyson’s Corner, Virginia, our team is committed to helping you achieve your weight loss goals in a sustainable and holistic way.

About Functional Medicine

Functional medicine focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying factors contributing to weight gain and metabolic dysfunction. By understanding the unique biochemical makeup of each individual, we can develop personalized strategies to promote weight loss and improve overall health.

The Mediterranean Lifestyle

The Mediterranean lifestyle offers a delicious and nutritious approach to weight loss. Rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, healthy fats, and moderate amounts of red wine, the Mediterranean diet provides a satisfying and sustainable way to reduce calorie intake while enjoying flavorful meals.

Our Approach

At Dr. Pappas Health, we take a comprehensive approach to weight loss that encompasses both functional medicine and the Mediterranean lifestyle. Our services include:
