About New Start Wellness and Weight Loss Center
Once you are a patient at NSW we are here for you forever!! Our staff is available for you on nights and weekends to help answer any questions or concerns you may have.
New Start Wellness & Weight Loss is about you, the patient. We believe that helping patients is about more then just losing weight. We strive to help our patients to be healthy and feeling good about themselves. NSW works with our patients to have the energy to do the activities they enjoy. Maybe its playing golf, tennis, or taking a walk on the beach. It may be playing with your children or grandchildren without becoming out of breath or getting so tired so quickly. Patients may want to wear a certain size in their clothing or fit in an outfit for a special occasion. Maybe its health related. Whatever the reason, at NSW we pride ourselves on being a caring and compassionate staff that listens to our patients. Weight loss can be an emotional, exciting journey, and we promise to be there for you every step of the way. NSW wants to help you become the person you know and want to be!
Unlike other franchised weight loss centers where plans are pre-packaged and SOLD to you along with unrealistic expectations and unhealthy results, Dr. John D. Horowitz and his knowledgeable staff at the New Start Wellness and Weight Loss Center is here to assist you in achieving a healthy lifestyle change that, if followed, can produce long term realistic weight loss results.
New Start Wellness and Weight Loss Center offers CUSTOMIZED programs for our individual patients needs. This is MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS UNDER A PHYSICIAN’S CARE. Each patient is personally seen by Dr. Horowitz, a member of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians and the architect of what will soon become your 4 phase personalized weight loss approach. Whether it is determined a Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD), a Low Calorie Diet (LCD), or a Hybrid Diet is right for you, each plan prescribed will provide you with the proper amount of protein, carbohydrates, fat, fiber and essential vitamins and minerals your body will need throughout your weight loss journey. We have designed a safe and effective way of losing weight.
