I am a practicing internist and nephrologist- a kidney specialist- in the Cedar Rapids area for the past 30+ years. My primary focus is on providing the nutritional cure for type 2 diabetes, and other chronic medical illnesses associated with being overweight and obesity.
For much of my career I focused an enormous amount of energy learning everything I could about diabetes, obesity, and the digestion of sugar and processed carbohydrates.
I focused the last ten years of my career on attempting to understand why people gain weight, and what important changes in behavior are necessary to impact meaningful sustained weight loss.
Over the past 6 years, it has been my privilege to work with over 1000 individuals, giving them the formula and format to allow successful, sustained weight loss and transition to a healthier lifestyle. I have helped people permanently eliminate the need for insulin, other diabetes medicines, and medications for hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, arthritis, and chronic GERD. I have watched individuals walk better, improve their sleep, and gradually become more active and full of life.
