MEET DR. BISHOP
Dr. Bishop has been a Medical Doctor for 44 years. His career started in Internal Medicine and he then transitioned to Obesity Medicine in 2000. Dr. Bishop focuses on improving health outcomes preventatively through lifestyle management, rather than reactively dealing with illness or distress. Dr. Bishop's passion for a healthy lifestyle is not only something he teaches, it is something he lives.
After many years helping patients with obesity, he has now shifted his practice to specialize in Metabolic health. He works closely with a team of Registered Nutritionists to ensure a whole therapy approach to weight loss and good health. The Dr. Bishop team guides patients through the process of changing their body and mind with a set program - this program is the 12 Week Path to Lightness Program.
Poor metabolic health is disruptive to life. It slows us down, it takes away our confidence, our freedom and our ability to stay positive. Dr. Bishop and the team are passionately dedicated to turning this around for you through medical intervention, a food plan specific for you, accountability and support.
