Weight Loss Nurse Practitioner (non-dietician)

Ms. Jeannie Bernard is a Family Nurse Practitioner who has been practicing as a Nurse Practitioner since 2012. Her first love has always been primary care, and she is deeply passionate about clinical care, preventive medicine, and building meaningful relationships with her patients. Her philosophy is simple: treat the whole person rather than focusing solely on the number on the scale. When Ms. Bernard began focusing more extensively on weight management, she wanted her approach to go beyond aesthetics. To her, weight management is about improving overall health, increasing energy, building confidence, reducing health risks, and helping patients develop healthy habits that can be maintained long term. In 2023, she established her Clinical Weight Loss Program. As the program developed, Ms. Bernard dedicated significant time to researching evidence-based approaches to weight management, including nutrition, physical activity, behavioral strategies, and FDA-approved weight-loss medications. She continues to expand her knowledge because she recognizes that weight management is not a one-size-fits-all process. One of the key distinctions of her program is the emphasis on listening to each patient and understanding what they want and need. Some patients may prefer to begin with nutrition and may not be interested in medication. In those cases, she can connect them with a trusted nutrition professional for individualized dietary guidance. Others may have already made lifestyle changes but feel they need additional support. When clinically appropriate, medication may be considered as one component of a comprehensive weight-management plan. When medication is used, Ms. Bernard emphasizes appropriate patient selection, education, safety, monitoring, and ongoing follow-up. For individuals who want to focus primarily on physical activity, she can recommend appropriate fitness resources, exercise applications, or personal trainers when appropriate. Ms. Bernard does not believe every patient requires the same treatment plan. There is no single diet, medication, exercise program, or strategy that works perfectly for everyone. Her goal is to meet patients where they are and develop a realistic plan based on their lifestyle, health status, preferences, and individual goals. Her approach may incorporate: Preventive healthcare Evidence-informed weight management Nutrition and behavioral changes Physical activity Appropriate use of weight-loss medications when indicated Ongoing monitoring and follow-up Patient education Shared decision-making Long-term, sustainable lifestyle changes She also takes a holistic approach to weight management. For Ms. Bernard, a holistic approach does not mean avoiding medication or medical treatment. Rather, it means recognizing that weight management involves many factors, including nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress, lifestyle, medical conditions, medications, and individual circumstances. Trust is one of the most important principles of her practice. She wants patients to feel safe, respected, heard, and comfortable discussing their concerns. She believes patients should understand not only what is being recommended, but also why it is being recommended. Education and shared decision-making are central to her approach. Patients are encouraged to ask questions, discuss concerns, communicate when something is not working, and actively participate in decisions regarding their care. Ms. Bernard also believes in collaboration and recognizes that successful weight management can involve multiple professionals and resources. When a patient would benefit from expertise or services outside of her scope of practice, she believes in connecting them with an appropriate qualified professional. At the heart of her Clinical Weight Loss Program is the belief that successful weight management is about more than losing pounds. It is about helping patients become healthier, feel better, build confidence, and develop realistic strategies they can maintain. Ms. Jeannie Bernard's Clinical Weight Loss Program is built around individualized care, evidence-informed treatment, patient education, preventive health, collaboration, and trust—helping patients make informed, safe, and sustainable changes one step at a time.

I’m always nervous working with a new provider. You never know if they’re going to fully listen to understand your concerns. From the moment I stepped into my appointment I knew that I found a gem. Ms Bernard took the time to listen to my concerns, do an exam and included me in my treatment plan. I say include because it was an actual discussion about the options available to me to treat my situation. I loved that she made sure that I understood everything before moving forward. I also loved that she only sees one person in her office at a time and there was no wait to see her.
