Northern California Medical Weight Management Clinics
Eat Right. Live Right. Feel Right.
Physician's Plan Medical Weight Management has offices in two locations in Northern California: Redding and Chico. We help patients lose weight and maintain weight successfully with the help of qualified medical practitioners. Our programs treat the whole person by combining the principles of nutrition, exercise physiology, pharmacotherapy (ethical medications), and behavior modification all in a caring and compassionate setting.
We have also found that as our patients lose weight, they start to look at other ways to feel better about themselves. That's why we offer additional services such as facial aesthetics and eyelash lengthening.
Meet Dr. Powell...
A Dieter Just Like You!
I was amazed when I looked at myself at the age of 38 and saw a 250 pound man in the mirror. I was at least 75 pounds over weight. I hated myself. I looked at my wife and wondered, “How can she be attracted to me when I am so fat?”
I was in my second year of my Emergency Medicine Residency. Yes, I was a doctor who was morbidly obese. How did that happen? Aren’t doctors supposed to know how to stay healthy?
With hard work, knowledge, and determination, I have been able to lose weight and keep it off. You can too! Just remember, struggling with weight loss is not a personality flaw!
