About Us
Equity in Care. Urgency in Action.
Health Can’t Wait Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit working to eliminate health inequities by providing uninsured and underinsured at-risk patients with six months of free, comprehensive obesity care. Through our partnership with Weight A Minute Clinic, we remove the financial and systemic barriers that prevent access to quality treatment—because delaying care costs lives.
About Weight A Minute Clinic
Weight A Minute Clinic is a telemedicine practice providing pediatric and adult overweight and obesity treatment through an individualized, culturally responsive approach.
We connect patients at highest risk with accessible care from a diverse team: obesity medicine physicians, dietitians, social workers, therapists, and community liaisons.
Our philosophy: Obesity is complex. Successful treatment requires equitable access to information, resources, and providers who reflect and understand the patients they serve.
We also provide engaging nutrition classes and monthly free group workouts, giving patients practical tools and community support as part of our whole-person care approach.
