When you join Doctor's Weight Loss Center (DWLC), you are not just getting a diet... you get a weight loss advocate. With more than 27 years experience in bariatric medicine, Dr. Roy Heron is committed to helping each client achieve his/her weight loss goal.

The core of the DWLC program is Dr. Heron's healthy and effective, moderate carbohydrate diet plan, which he began back in 1981 (the Heron Diet), which includes menu suggestions (breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks, including desserts!) helpful tips, and easy-to-follow instructions. This is a real-food, real satisfaction diet that won't leave you starved or feeling deprived. But DWLC patients agree that it is also the regular counseling sessions (once a week or more) with Dr. Heron that really helps dieters succeed. In addition, DWLC offers the latest technology in body mass analysis (BMI), metabolic rate measurements, body contouring procedures and SAFE weight loss medication - appetite suppressants and vitamin B-12 injections, for those who need an energy boast.  VELASHAPE (click to learn more)
