What’s different about the Step Ahead program?
Step Ahead takes an innovative approach to weight loss by combining the two basic elements of traditional weight loss programs, diet and exercise, with an extra component that’s ideal for people who need more individualized care — medical supervision by a qualified and well trained Internal Medicine specialist, Dr. Deborah Neiman. At Step Ahead, we believe that obesity is a chronic disease requiring a multidisciplinary approach that goes far beyond the traditional one-size-fits all cookie cutter mentality which is endemic to so many other weight loss programs. Instead, Dr. Neiman creates a customized plan based on each participant’s complete medical history as well as numerous other factors. Prescription medications and supplements are also considered in combination with the lifestlye plan.
