Physician Associates (PAs) are certified healthcare professionals with a generalist medical education who work alongside doctors and surgeons providing medical care as an integral part of the multidisciplinary team. PAs work under the supervision of a doctor but can work autonomously with appropriate support.
Functional Medicine aims to look at the whole person and move toward root cause resolution (as opposed to just symptom management. A Certified Functional Nutrition Counselor (CFNC) is a trained wellness professional who helps guide individuals on their health and nutrition journeys. They take a person-forward approach to health while considering all the factors that may affect an individual’s well-being.
A brilliant author, Diana published “A GPS for Bariatric Success: A Holistic Guide to Transforming Your Mindset, Achieving Sustainable Weight Loss and Maximizing Your Well-Being”. Her passion for the healing power of food is the motivation behind her book. She believes the body is not the sum of separate organ systems but a connected ecosystem and that an integrated approach should always take center stage when trying to achieve and maintain health and wellness before and especially, after weight loss surgery.
