This is a “patient-centered” and not a “physician-centered” practice; that is, we place you – and not us – at the key position in the doctor/patient relationship.

Diets rarely work for weight loss over the long-term; if one does manage to lose weight initially with a “program diet” such as Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig or NutriSytem, as soon as the program stops, all the weight is usually quickly regained. It is for this reason that we do not advocate a “diet.” We want our patients to understand what the natural food for our species was before farming was invented and how that relates to what we eat today: this is key in order to have success in achieving initial weight loss as well as sustaining that loss.
