A personalized weight loss program conducted under the supervision of Dr. Frank Averill at St. Francis Medical Institute, which is convenient to the Clearwater, New Port Richey, and Palm Harbor, FL, area, can provide many advantages over a standard diet. Whether you have a health condition that has caused you to put on some extra pounds, or you are simply frustrated by weight-related limitations on your lifestyle, the St. Francis team can guide and support you on your personal journey to better health.
Both Dr. Averill and his wife, Rose, who is a nutritionist, wellness coach, and certified personal trainer, fully understand the range of difficult issues faced by individuals who need or want to slim down. That’s because the Averills have collectively lost more than 90 pounds themselves. Inspired by a desire to help others achieve long-term wellness through weight loss, they’ve developed a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach that is customizable based on each patient’s unique needs. This highly personalized weight loss program incorporates a solid support system to help each patient make the necessary lifestyle changes to improve his or her overall well-being.
The Averills firmly believe that weight management is an ongoing, lifetime process of healthy living that extends far beyond the weight loss phase. Based on this philosophy, your personalized weight loss program will begin with an in-depth medical evaluation, including:
- An assessment of your complete health history
- A review of the medications and supplements you take
- An evaluation of your diet, activity level, sleep patterns, and daily routine
- A physical examination to check your overall health
- A discussion of your past weight loss attempts, including what has worked for you and what hasn’t
This information will then be used to create a personalized weight loss program that will help you safely and effectively lose weight and keep it off. Throughout the process, your progress will be tracked through private weekly weigh-ins, and you will receive ongoing support, education, and motivation. The Averills will be right there to help you get past each plateau and celebrate each milestone.
