Multidisciplinary obesity therapy
We support your patients with weight-related diagnoses such as obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, and binge-eating disorders. Our therapy promotes holistic habit changes and successful weight loss. We achieve the best results through a combination of tailored advice from specialists and digital support.
Our specialist areas
Nutritional advice
We provide your patients with expert advice on changing their diet and lifestyle. Our nutritionists offer support in person at your doctor’s surgery, via chat or by phone.
Psychotherapy
Excess weight, obesity, diabetes and high blood pressure often lead to mental challenges in addition to physical complaints. We use psychotherapy to provide your patients with holistic support in achieving their health and weight goals.
Drug therapy
We offer a customised treatment pathway for drug-based obesity therapy. Our focus is on support and sustainable behavioural change in order to achieve long-term weight loss.

Our work is evidence-based
We believe that Oviva works best when we conduct our own research and analyse data in our field of specialisation. This allows us to continuously improve our app-guided care and to tailor it to the needs of our users.
To this end, we work closely with our expert advisory board. You can access our studies and publications below.
Our events
We regularly organise specialist webinars and attend congresses on key topics relating to obesity, diabetes and digital health.
