Our Program
| If you have visited nutritionists, weight loss programs, physicians, and/or psychologists to try and tackle a weight problem, only to be given conflicting directions with lukewarm results, your search is finally over. At Dr. Bo’s Diet, we realize that there is no single program that is perfect for everyone. For that reason, we custom-design each patient’s program based on their needs and our assessment of their challenges.
We look at all three broad categories of weight struggles: 1. Physiological: The interplay of all the medical conditions that contribute to weight gain. These three categories have multiple connections and relationships that influence the overall body in its attempt to regulate nutrition and health. With our screening program our patients are asked questions to help us understand what extent each of these factors contribute to their struggle. After this is completed a customized solution is created for that patient. Some programs can include a combination of a prescription medication, detailed diet plan, natural supplement or herbs, and/or meal replacements. Each program is unique to the patient’s needs. We then carefully monitor the patient’s progress and make adjustments as necessary to achieve the best possible results. |

| Whether you have 7 lbs to lose or 307 lbs to lose, our team of doctors, physician assistants, weight-loss specialists and/or nutritionists will identify which strategy is best for you. Regardless of which program you are on, our focus and our objective will always be: a) Healthy, Rapid Weight Loss in the Short-Term b) Keeping the Weight Off in the Long-Term |

| HOW WE DO IT:
There is no “cookie cutter” program that works for everyone. No two patients of Dr. Bo get the exact same regiment. Although we follow a general guideline and ideology born from years of research and development, we cannot tell you exactly what to expect until we learn more about you and understand your specific struggles with weight. All patients will receive a medical examination on their first visit. One of our doctors or physician assistants will review your medical history including past surgeries, medical problems, allergies, medications and struggles with weight and determine if you are a candidate for our program. Additionally, each patient will undergo an extensive interview and our “PPN” exam to help us learn more about you and your struggles. Lastly, you will meet with a weight-loss specialist or nutritionist who, together with the doctor, determine the best path to accomplish our goals. Please expect your first consultation to last about 60 to 90 minutes. |

| The Diet Plan: Depending on the patient’s specific needs, a carefully constructed diet plan will be determined to best meet the patient’s goals and objectives. Whether you are a vegetarian, vegan, kosher or, a picky eater, we have seen it all and will find a diet plan that is best for you. Most plans include real food like; chicken, steak, fish and beef, plus fruits, vegetables and even foods with carbohydrates. No two programs are alike, but we work diligently to find a program that will yield results safely and effectively. We get very specific: a) types of food b) portions c) cooking methods d) the schedule No need to guess what, when or, how. We are here for you to make it easy to follow. |
|
| The Medication: Depending on the patient, some may be prescribed a medication to assist in our program’s objectives, and some may not. Whether a medication is right for you or not will be determined by both the patient and doctor together. If appropriate, any medication prescribed will be safe, effective and, carefully prescribed to ensure the utmost care in our patient’s health and well-being. All the risks, benefits and, side effects (when applicable) will be clearly outlined before a determination is made whether any particular medication is prescribed for our patient. | |
| The Team: Each patient is designated a physician and weight-loss specialist to oversee their entire program. A dedicated member of our team will be assigned to each patient; holding their hand throughout the entire process. You are no longer alone. We are very accessible. We are here Monday thru Friday from 9am until 8pm. Outside of our normal practice hours, we have an answering service to take your calls – in case of an urgent matter, you are able to reach your dedicated Weight-Loss Specialist or dedicated Physician 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. | |
| In conclusion; there are numerous elements that interplay in the human body when it comes to eating and nutrition. Most “weight loss specialists” have a narrow focus and only correct deficiencies as it relates to their “understanding” and “expertise.” A physician might focus on thyroid, diabetes, cholesterol and hypertension. A therapist, on the other hand, might delve into emotional eating disorders. Nutritionists might use their expertise to educate their patients about understanding the difference of a protein, carbohydrate, and fat. These various practitioners create a program to help the patient lose the weight based on their understanding of the patient. However, when the program is completed the patient lacks the tools to understand their body and maintain their weight. A viscous cycle of “yo-yo” dieting is created and the patient is left disheartened. We combine the expertise of all and strategize to identify a plan that is most effective for each individual regardless of their struggle and challenge with weight. | |
