Dr. Karin Boode, holds a Ph.D  in food science.  Her focus is the medically managed weight loss program that has proven to be extremely effective for the many patients that have participated since the inception of the program in early 2011.

The program teaches how to lose weight without going hungry, without counting points or calories, without giving up your favorite foods, without cutting out entire food groups and without being forced to buy special foods and/or supplements. This lifestyle modification program is covered by most insurances if the patient’s BMI is greater than 30 (obese).

The program is great for patients with chronic illnesses and also for those who would like to prevent chronic illnesses.

Dr. Barbara Amsler, M.D. has retired from internal medicine. Dr Farzana Hosain, M.D. has taken over the internal medicine part of Healthy Habits Key to Wellness. She sees patients in our office. The name of the practice has changed to Talaga Internal Medicine. Location and phone number have not changed.
