Study Summary

Summary Description The goal of this intervention study is to test how well does a weight management curriculum work in virtual group-based medical visits (telehealth) for the treatment of adolescents with obesity. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How well does providing group-based medical care for obesity using telehealth work? * How doable is it to provide virtual group-based health education visits with adolescent patients? * Are the group-based health education visits similar, or better than the traditional in-person clinic visits? Participants will be asked to: * Complete surveys, do bloodwork, and physical measurements like blood pressure, height and weight before the study activities start and after completing the study activities * Participate in study activities such as attending 12 virtual sessions lasting 60 minutes each, every other week, over a period of 6 months * Join group learning and discussions of topics like nutrition, barriers to physical activity, and mental health with various facilitators like a medical doctor, dietitian, psychologist, and physical therapist * Take part of in brief individual coaching sessions over email or over the phone Researchers will compare the virtual group-based medical visits to the traditional in-person weight management clinic visits (EMPOWER Weight Management Clinic) to see if the study can be another option in the treatment of adolescents with obesity.
