Eating Disorder Solutions Reports Strong Gains in Interpersonal Connection From Its Weatherford Treatment Program

New clinical data shows Eating Disorder Solutions’ Weatherford program producing its strongest interpersonal outcomes of any measure tracked, alongside continued use of its residential-to-outpatient continuum of care.

United States, October 16, 2026 -- Eating Disorder Solutions (EDS), a Dallas-Fort Worth-based provider of eating disorder treatment, today released updated clinical outcomes data for its Weatherford program, spanning residential, outpatient, and tele-intensive outpatient (Tele-IOP) levels of care. The analysis, based on a 31-item clinical outcomes assessment administered at intervals throughout each client’s episode of care, draws on 366 survey administrations across 90 clients treated between March and September 2026. Findings were reviewed by Dr. Jerry Vaccaro, M.D., and Lauren Reisman, LMSW.

“What we’re seeing in this data reflects the heart of what eating disorder recovery is about: rebuilding trust and connection. Interpersonal connection was the clearest area of measurable progress in this refresh, and that’s exactly the domain our clinical model is built to strengthen.”

— Michael Banis, Chief Growth Officer, Discovery MSO

Key Findings

• Interpersonal functioning showed the strongest improvement of any domain measured: a 24.9% reduction in relational distress among clients with paired survey data, driven by gains in trust and reduced feelings of isolation.
• The program’s step-down continuum is in active use: of Weatherford residential episodes closed in this reporting window, 57% transitioned into EDS’s outpatient or Tele-IOP programs to continue care.
• Emotional symptom scores improved, consistent with the gradual, sustained pace of progress expected for a chronic-care treatment population.

A Program Built on Connection

Eating disorder recovery depends heavily on rebuilding the relational capacities that are often most affected by the illness. EDS Weatherford’s clinical model is built around that principle, and the latest outcomes data shows it translating into measurable results: the interpersonal domain produced the largest improvement of any area tracked in this refresh.
