THE CLINIC
Philosophy
It is our intention to provide the best weight management journey for each patient using the best evidence-based approach in a compassionate environment, free of judgement and bias.
Each patient is assessed to evaluate the root cause of the patients’ weight gain or difficulty in losing weight. We offer every patient a comprehensive plan utilizing behaviour modification, motivational interviewing, cognitive restructuring, and safe yet powerful pharmacotherapy (weight loss medication). The combination of our techniques act synergistically to yield the most powerful weight loss available by modern medicine.
"We strive to keep up to date with the latest, most effective therapies as they become available."
