For most routine labwork, you can now have your blood drawn and review the results with the doctor the same day! Routine visits for adjustment of your cholesterol medications or Coumadin will now be much easier, eliminating extra stops at the lab  or trips to the “Lipid Clinic” or “Coumadin Clinic”.

We want to help you keep that New Year’s Resolution to lose weight and get healthier, so we’re offering a special for January.

If your weight loss program includes products from Bariatrix Nutrition, we’re offering 10% off for the entire month of January.   If you’re a new client in our weight-loss program,  in addition to the discount, you’ll also receive the Student Guide FREE when you start our program !

Julia and I have been using Bariatrix products for weight loss and to help manage our weight.  I’ve lost 30 pounds so far, and have maintained my weight during the “holiday eating season”.   Julia has lost 17 pounds so far as well, with no holiday weight gain.  You can still enjoy holidays and real food, and reach your weight loss goal.

I have 10 more pounds to go, and I’ll be starting on that in January.    What were your New Year’s resolutions?

Reusable Bariatrix Shopping Bag
We now stock the reusable shopping bags from Bariatrix.

They’re $2.50 each, and can be ordered on our online order form, or if you’d like you can ask for them when you come in to pick up your order. As always, you have the option of plastic grocery bags or bringing in your own bags.

The Contact Us Form Is Back

Posted by admin On December - 20 - 2008 Comments Off Subscribe here

Sorry about that – we’re upgrading our website so that we have a working “members only” area with monthly specials, diet tips, and other goodies for folks who are in our weight loss programs, and in the process of adding the programming to handle this the “Contact Us” e-mail form under “About Our Practice”  disappeared. It’s fixed now, sorry for the inconvenience.

For the month of October, FAA second and third class physical examinations will be “on sale” for only $75.  We’re hoping that this will both bring in more pilots to our practice, as well as get our “numbers” up for the FAA.  When does your medical expire?   Call Kristy or Michelle for details.

Technical Notes..

We were down earlier today for a hardware update to our webserver and mailserver.  You should see a BIG increase in speed now when browsing our website.  Considering our old web/mailserver cost us a whopping $65 on e-bay four years ago, it didn’t owe us anything.    Let me know if you can see any difference.
