Hi. Welcome to Our Site...

Our Goal

Our weight management program provides a multi-level approach to treat each individual with the correct personalized methods. Our goal is to help each person lose weight, improve lean body mass, and maintain weight loss. All of our programs are closely medically supervised by physicians and para-professionals.

Our Beliefs

People are genetically different and are overweight for a variety of reasons. Different patients respond to different methods of weight loss, so the program must be tailored to the individual. This is the reason that no single method of weight management works for everyone. Our program is designed to find just the right combination of dietary changes, exercise, and behavioral modification to help you lose and maintain weight loss.

It's Not Your Fault

In general, the tendency to become overweight is genetic or inherited. Why can some people eat like crazy and never gain weight? They picked their parents right! Each person's body has a pre-determined tendency to go toward a particular weight. Our environment (eating habits, exercise etc.) adjusts that weight up or down under different circumstances. We strive to find the right combination to improve your weight as much as is genetically possible.

Being Overweight is a Disease

Fifty-four percent of the U.S. population is overweight as of the year 2000, so you're not alone! Our physician-run program recognizes that, in medical terms, being overweight is a disease. This disease increases the risk for coronary artery disease (heart attacks and strokes), diabetes, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, gallbladder disease, and numerous cancers including cancer of the breast, colon, prostate, gallbladder, and uterus.
