Low Calorie Diet
One of the nutritional programs offered at Dr. Haendiges' Medical Weight Loss is the medically prescribed low calorie diet. This low calorie diet can only be prescribed by a physician.
The low calorie diet utilizes a nutrition-rich liquid diet, high quality meal replacement formulas, protein bars, soups and snacks in combination with comprehensive lifestyle education, including exercise and counseling to help you lose weight, improve your health, and develop - and maintain - the new skills and habits necessary to successfully manage your weight in the future.
This program utilizes dietary products only available to physicians to ensure a medically sound program, with complete nutrition necessary to maintain optimum health. At Dr. Haendiges' Medical Weight Loss, we believe obesity is an addiction that needs to be broken.
By using nutrient-rich formulas and personalized programs as part of an overall diet program, you can be confident that the low calorie program prescribed for you is one of the most successful and safest ways to break and change unhealthy eating patterns and start you on your way to long-term weight control.
What happens when I start the Low Calorie Diet?
After choosing to start the Low Calorie Diet Program, your initial appointment will consist of a history and physical exam with Dr. Haendiges. Dr. Haendiges will discuss your overall health, medications you may be taking, and your personal experience with diets and weight loss programs you may have tried in the past. With this information, Dr. Haendiges will create a personalized program to help you lose weight and most important, to keep the weight off.
You will have an EKG performed, which will be read by local Board-Certified Cardiologists. You will have a labwork drawn to establish your baseline blood levels. Dr. Haendiges will send an initiation letter to your primary care physician to inform him/her that you have started the program with us.
You will be provided with all the materials and education to successfully begin the program. You will have the opportunity to ask Dr. Haendiges questions in a one-on-one setting. At this first appointment, we will show you our newly expanded product room. We will explain all of your choices available for the low calorie diet. You will leave your appointment with ALL of the food you will need for the next week.
Your follow up visits will be scheduled every week.
What will I get each week of the program?
- Weekly visits with vital signs
- Bio-impedance scale to calculate total fat loss
- Follow up letters to primary care physicians as weight loss occurs
- Weekly mini physical as needed or targeted exam
- All the food you need for a week
- Educational modules
- Weekly Membership to "Dialogue with Dr. Haendiges"

Doctor's Supplements
Research proves that we do not have all of the essential minerals and vitamins in our food. In fact, we are no longer eating our "designed" diet. As Hunters and Gatherers, we are now only hunting at the grocery store. We consume tons of garbage a year and expect our bodies to operate just fine. I ask you this question: "What is the difference between food and medicine?' If I gave you a cheeseburger straight out of the bag, you most likely would eat it. However, if I handed you 5 pills, even from me, most likely you would not take them! Food is medicine!
Do you ever experience side effects from medicine? Sure, it is possible. Have you ever thought that maybe the reason you don't feel well is because you don't eat well. Would you expect your car to run great if you put in bad gas? Of course not! Then why, might I ask, do you expect "your engine" to run great? It really is kind of silly, isn't it?
Take charge of your health!
Inform yourself! If you want more information then please, send us your email and name. As always, I assure you, your email and name will NEVER be shared! I respect your privacy and I respect your health!
To your health,
Dr. Haendiges
Comments
Currently we do not have a private payment plan available through our office but Care Credit can be used which is a service of a local credit union. Also some (depending on your insurance provider) Health Savings Accounts will work as well.
I would recommend you check with your insurance company as their policies vary from one company to the next. Health spending and flex savings accounts generally allow for gym memberships and weight loss programs; however, check your own coverage options to be sure. We do offer financing options from a local third party to those who are interested. With the way insurance companies are, and the red tape that goes with them, the costs of our programs would actually rise considerably if we filed it through your insurance company.
Right now, we are trying to promote your health and the health of our community! We are offering a QuickStart Program that will give you a week at no charge when you commit to three weeks of the program. This is a life changing program that helps you to fundamentally change the way you approach your nutrition. This is a fantastic program that will positively change your life. I hope to see you on Tuesday night. Dr. Haendiges
