What is the most unique thing about this new business? "Unlike other weight loss programs, we offer an integrated approach to weight loss to offer a permanent
change."Your company's mission or philosophy? "Weight loss is a secondary benefit of achieving optimal health."
How would you describe your management style? "Unlike other doctor's offices, we take time with our patients to understand their needs and reach their goals."
Why did you choose to open this type of business, or become involved with this industry? "Have been in the field for 31 years. Decided it was the right time to formalize a weight-loss program, since it has always been a secondary benefit of improving health and so many people fail at weight loss because of failure to prioritize their health goals."
What are your least and most favorite things about your business/industry? "Least -- most weight-loss programs are a scam that is detrimental to an individual's health and will fail in the long run. Most -- helping people improve their health."
