For many people, losing weight—and keeping it off—can feel like a constant uphill battle. You might have tried everything: new diets, gym memberships, even prescription medications that promise fast results. But the truth is, real and lasting change doesn't come from a pharmacy—it comes from understanding your body, your habits, and your goals. That's exactly what I focus on in my Direct Primary Care (DPC) practice.
Here, you're not just another patient in a waiting room. You're a partner in a health journey we take together.
A Different Way to Approach Weight Loss
In recent years, GLP-1 agonists such as Wegovy and Zepbound have become popular weight-loss medications. They can help people shed pounds, but they come with risks such as nausea, paralysis of the intestines, pancreatitis, and thyroid cancer. Long-term risks are still unknown. More commonly, they can lead to muscle loss. For many, once they stop the shots, the weight comes back (and just the fat by the way, not the lost muscle) —because the root causes of overeating or inactivity were never addressed.
That's why I take a more thoughtful, sustainable approach. I focus on learning how to feed your body—not starve it. Together, we talk about what to eat to stay full and energized, when to eat, how to shop smart at the grocery store, and how to build a fitness routine that fits your life. No fad diets. No calorie obsession. Just real strategies you can stick with.
Coaching That Works for Real Life
Depending on your membership level, we meet every 2–3 months for dedicated coaching sessions. These sessions are relaxed, practical, and personal. We look at what's been working and where you've felt stuck. We might talk about meal timing, how to handle cravings at night, or how to fit more movement into your busy schedule.
You'll also learn simple ways to measure progress that go beyond the scale—like improved stamina, better sleep, or lower blood pressure. Over time, these small wins add up to meaningful changes in your health and confidence.
Health Care That's Affordable and Complete
Many commercial weight-loss programs, like Awaken180, can cost around $300 each week, and up to $7000 for 6 months! And that's just for weight loss—nothing else.
At my DPC practice, your monthly membership is a fraction of that cost. It includes not only nutrition and weight-management coaching but also all your primary care. That means you can see me for preventive care, lab reviews, sick visits, and chronic disease management—all under one simple, transparent fee. No surprise bills, no rushed visits, no endless co-pays.
Coaching for More Than Just Weight
While many patients join for help with weight loss, these same coaching sessions also work wonders for managing chronic conditions. Together, we can improve conditions like hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, and GERD (heartburn)—all of which respond incredibly well to lifestyle adjustments.
The best part? As you learn how to eat and move in ways that support your goals, your medical conditions often improve naturally. Many patients find they need fewer medications over time.
A Partnership That Puts You First
The DPC model is built around time and connection—the two things that matter most in good medicine. Here, you're not rushed through an appointment or handed a printout of diet tips. We talk, plan, and adjust together.
Whether your goal is to lose weight, reduce medications, or feel better day to day, my job is to help you get there with clarity, encouragement, and tools that work for your unique life.
If you've been searching for a caring, practical, and affordable way to reclaim your health, my DPC practice might be just what you're looking for. Here, every win matters, every challenge is solvable, and every patient's journey is worth celebrating.
