Stuart Fischer, MD, discusses how physicians can help patients by adopting lifestyle adjustments. Recommending a diet is not enough. It requires a comprehensive lifestyle approach. Diets alone just don't work.
Dr. Fischer has developed his unique approach to weight loss featured in The Park Avenue Diet after decades of experience in internal medicine, emergency medicine and nutrition. His acclaimed Little Book of Big Medical Emergencies has also been the subject of multiple television and print interviews.
