At any one time, almost half of women and one-third of men in the United States are on a diet, spending $33 billion a
year on weight loss. Still today, 64.5% of the American population is considered overweight or obese. From self-consciousness
to physical limitations, many overweight people feel that their size is keeping them from being the person they truly are.
People who are overweight are also at risk for developing serious health problems such as heart disease, diabetes, high blood
pressure, high cholesterol, stroke, arthritis, and gallbladder disease. As a chronic disease, obesity requires lifelong
treatment and medical care.
Our goal is to help you lose weight and keep it off. We are a group of medical professionals with expertise in nutrition, endocrinology,
diabetes, and psychology, that have come together with this common objective. We are nestled in the Center for Endocrinology, Diabetes and
