Comprehensive Medical Weight Loss
During April, I attended the Obesity Medicine Association’s (OMA) Fall conference in San Francisco. This conference educates doctors on the treatment of obesity. I helped teach their review course (courses on nutrition and diet) and in their main summit, courses on the use of medications. I presented four hours of lectures in two days!
A list of upcoming classes that will take place at Clinical Nutrition Center in April and May. The classes consist of a variety of subjects to help support all aspects of a healthy lifestyle.

5 years ago I had the pleasure of meeting a new patient at Clinical Nutrition Center. For privacy reasons, I’ll call her Lilly. She was an incredible person with her 60th birthday coming up. She wanted to get healthier and feel better.
A patient once asked me “Who is the most likely to be successful at losing weight?” After a brief moment, I answered “Moms who have a child getting married in a few months.” In my 12 years working at Clinical Nutrition Center, nearly every mom wanting to get into that pretty dress for the child’s wedding has succeeded. Many even lose more weight than they intended.
Vitamin D plays an important role in bone health and also with regards to proper biochemical functioning of fat tissue. Did you know that one of the most common causes of low vitamin D is excess weight? It is now recommended that individuals with excess weight be screened for low vitamin D levels.
Did you know that Dr. Lazarus is a locally and nationally recognized speaker on obesity? Take advantage of his knowledge and expertise in his new class series at CNC. HIs classes will now be offered free of charge, so take advantage of these fun and informative classes with the Doctor!
Men face many unique challenges when it comes to losing weight and keeping it off permanently. Instead of reinventing the wheel for every new challenge and situation, why not learn from others that have successfully faced that challenge? And, why not share your successes to help motivate others?
The holidays have arrived. Time to have a drink. Really? Is the doctor really recommending alcohol?
