Brittany Overby
Henderson and South Hill
Hello, my name is Brittany and I've been working at Carolina Weight Loss since 2019. I have previous experience in healthcare which makes being a provider a good fit for me. Seeing my patients succeed is a special joy to me. When I am not at work I enjoy walking my dog for exercise. I recommend my patients pick a favorite activity a day to raise their heart rate to melt the pounds off.
Morgan "Tyler" Reavis
Henderson, Oxford, Raleigh, Goldsboro
Hi, my name is Morgan “Tyler” Reavis, and I have been working in the medical field since 2004 in the Emergency Room, Specialty, and even Primary Care. In March of 2023, I started my very own weight loss journey with Carolina Weight Loss, losing 65 lbs. I was honored in September 2023 to become a part of their team! Since then, I have built many relationships with clients who I’ve enjoyed meeting with each week. Helping clients feel better, trusting and confiding in me with their goals, and seeing them come back each week and leave with a smile on their faces makes me proud!

Hi, my name is Charity Norwood and I’ve been working at Carolina Weight Loss since March 2021. My previous work experience was in health care, where I have 24 years of experience in the medical field. I’m also an Emergency Medical Technician Basic.
I have always enjoyed working in the medical field. I enjoy helping my patients achieve their weight loss goals and watching their progress makes me really proud.
When not working, I spend time with my husband and my dog Crook. I am excited to be on this weight loss journey and welcome everyone to come visit me at the Roanoke Rapids or Warrenton location.
Megan Kendrick
South Hill and Marketing
Hi friends, my name is Megan Kendrick. I started in healthcare in 2019 as a certified nursing assistant. I attended ultrasound school where I learned intensively about the abdominal organs. I understand every organ in your digestive system and its function. That alone helps me strive to be the best provider I can be! My favorite part about being a provider is figuring out how your body is different from others because that's the key to your success.
Outside of work, there is not a sunny lake day I miss! My favorite activities are wake surfing and softball.
