weight loss and resources

Many times we have new patients enter our weight loss program and previously, they have tried other medically supervised programs in the area. Obviously, we strive to provide the "best" program in town, and towards that end, we feel that the measure as to how successful the program is relates not only to the weight loss that occurs when you are coming here for your visits, but also the support you get when you leave.

Toward that end, I want to remind everyone that we have a full-time personal trainer , Joanne, and a full time dietician, Julia, who are available for your e-mail questions, one-on-one meetings, etc. When you join our program, we want you to know that we are providing these resources to you even when you leave your formal visits. We also encourage you to come into our office and use our scale periodically. As mentioned previously, record your weight and if it ever goes 5 pounds above the weight you achieved when you left your visits, come in for a one-time appointment to get refocused.

We realize that you are committing much time and money towards your weight loss efforts and we are here for you, even when your formal visits are "over". There is no "finish line" to your efforts and pleade utilize our resources to help you maintain the weight loss you worked so hard to achieve.
