Welcome to Transformations, a New Jersey Weight Loss Management Center

Kathleen Hickey, MD

Congratulations, you have taken the first step on your journey to permanent control of your weight and health! My name is Dr. Kathleen Hickey and I am the medical director at Transformations. I am Board Certified in both Emergency and Bariatric/Obesity Medicine. I have been practicing in Central New Jersey for over 13 years, since completing my residency at Johns Hopkins Hosptal in Baltimore. I am a member of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians and have received advanced training in the management of overweight and obesity, nutrition and metabolism.

I have selected our medical staff based not only on their medical knowledge and skills, but also for their warm and supportive natures and their ability to motivate. The treatment protocols we use have been shown (in research and in practice) to change your body composition (decrease body fat and increase muscle mass) better than any other available. This ensures the best, fastest and longest-lasting weight loss. Please come by or call so we can talk about how we can help in your particular situation. I am sure you will be happy with your care at Transformations.

I look forward to meeting you,
Kathleen Hickey, MD

"I know the difficult journey of weight loss. I was a big kid and reached almost 300 pounds during high school. I was diagnosed with high blood pressure at the age of 17 and started on medication. I began my weight loss journey during college and have lost over 130 pounds, normalized my blood pressure and no longer need medication. My success story was featured in the South Beach Diet Supercharged book, First Magazine and I was even on the cover of Woman's World Magazine in a swim suit! It is my desire to work with you reinforcing your program with individual and group support and motivational counseling services to help you achieve your personal goals."
